    Not a horrible first sim, a lot of development with my specs that I'm very happy about. But theres improvements I can make to my team, and they will be made before next sim.

    Hopefully Pujols puts forth a better avg. than the one he has now. But overall, it's the beginning of the season, and it'll take time for my team to gel together.

    MLB ERA
    4.92
    Batting AVG: .329 (1st)
    Homeruns: 19 (4th)
    Walks: 41 (9th)
    Stolen Bases: 17 (4th)
    Runs Scored: 79 (4th)

    Pitching ERA: 4.96 (18th)
    Opponents AVG: .282 (17th)
    HRs Allowed: 12 (18th)
    Walks Allowed: 42 (T-21st)
    Runs Allowed: 52 (16th)

    Well... except for Beckett, pitching is struggling a bit... but that was expected... The offense producing like this is a very pleasant supprise though... 3 starting position players under .300, but all 3 are young progressing players.... Valverde stunk about as bad as you can as a closer in his three games, but still got a win and a save... and real happy that Johnny Damon is doing just as I needed him to. Getting on base and stealing like a madman

    And WOW.... just from a quick glance... the downturn of the aging players is starting off with a BANG....

    Griffey is probably the biggest one. decreasing in every statistical rating

    I agree with you there Crazy.... my main curiosity though is to see exactly how fast the decline happens

    Personally, I've had bad experiences with older players declining really quick. I had Bonds in another league that I was in, and he was dead after the first month or two.

    I didn't even notice this injury at first. I looked at the injury report on the OOTP page and it doesn't show his injury...unless I missed it. It shows the injury on the team page and the player page though.
