Johnson will probably take Webb's spot in the rotation not sure which pitcher will get dumped for Johnson on the 25 man.

I'd just DL Orenduff for now. he wasn't pitching so hot anyway.

Hey Boss,
I will hang up the cleats after this season.
It was a great time, but my family needs me now.

Regards,
Roy Halladay

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I saw that too Halladay. Truly a sad day. =/

[Porter]

Seattle is over .500!!!!!!!!!! ....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And they have a better record than San Diego. So what its the 1st sim.

BAL - signs of aging? (25th in pitching era)

on a more positive note, Billy Rowell has turned beast.

[General]

28th in BA....****

Well half my offense started out hot, including new signee Reimold who was smoking. The Staff was good, Volquez put out a solid sim. Atleast he was better than the previous seasons so far. Wheeler wasnt so hot, but Illl give him another sim or two before I switch him out for another. Oh yeah, first is nice, and Detroits slow start is nice too.

[General]

My offense was ****ing awful, but my pitching has placed me in the top slot. The offense does have to suck a little less though. Wait, who am I kidding. Skipworth had an inexcusable sim, as did Hafner and Weeks, who regressed into being almost useless. And Longoria hasn't done shit. Assholes.

[NYgiantsfan5689]

If I could get a little more power development from Herreros and I get some semblence of a SP staff, this team could be pretty good as soon as next year. Wood and Figuerdo are beasts. Wood could be a bigtime ROY candidate

Sunday 4/2/2016:
Chaz Roe seems to have improved his pure stuff!
Chaz Roe is hitting his spots better, his command improved!

he must be hitting up the talent fairy on April 2:

8,9,9 out of 9,10,8 now.

10 - 3 sim

Opponents AVG: .256 (10th)
HRs Allowed: 4 (1st)
Walks Allowed: 46 (T-25th)
Runs Allowed: 55 (11th)

Asahina DTD for 4 - 5 weeks, which means DL since I've had bad experiences with the game not using DTD pitchers. Question is do I give McCarthy (9,9,8,7 and career underachiever) a chance or call up Zito's buddy Frank Manhardt from Oz (7,6,8,9 out 10,9,8,9...increased ST and first sim)?

Pujols mashing as always and Fielder off to a good start. Zimmerman, you're killing me the last few seasons.

[nick]

4 hrs allowed for your staff? Jeeze.

[Halladay_is_God]

6-6 sim

Runs Allowed: 40 (1st)

offense really sucked outside of Fields and Paramore

pitching was great with a couple of exceptions named Shell and Gonzalez

Josh Smoker still amazes me as the closer

Halladay in his last season (sheds a tear) is 2 wins away from 250 and 25 K's from 2500

(*&^$!#(*^!*($(#@ Putkonen down for the year AGAIN.,.. and Miller out for weeks... noit how I needed this to start out

[Kingdom]

Call Kenny Rogers, see if he's available to pitch
