2048 Season Thread: White Men Can Jump??!

[DRiccio21]

Spitters 11 under .500 in one run games. yucka

Crafty McGee's career may have ended this sim. Heck of a career. Early days were fantastic, hit a lull, but found some magic later in his late 30s.

3rd all time in innings pitched. 2nd in Complete Games. 19th in pitcher WAR.

Mark Lindsey may be the next McGee.

Hell of a career.

He's a good one. I need some offense in the worst way though. Especially in the OF. Hoping to trade Ramos or Jefferson for a young OF this offseason.

Super excited to see Arturo Salgado in AAA next year. He's slated as my top SP prospect and my scout is in love with him. His stuff just keeps going up. He is up to 100 stuff potential and has 6 pitches, all green potential. Having that many pitches must help his potential b/c his movement and control just hover around 60.

Also an 18th round pick who came out of nowhere.

Philly has played themselves out of the postseason the last couple sims and the story of the year in Richmond, Tampa with a big surge, and Shel still lurking will make a fun last couple weeks.

Also, Chris Oliver on pace to break the single season strikeout record of 303 held by The Co McCarty. He is on pace for 311.

I didn't even realize that, even more to root for these next few sims

[shel311]

Best hitter would be Trey Rowe cause his ISO is .280. Stevens 2nd at .275

We can now add ISO to the long list including SLG, wOBA, OPS, OPS+, and wRC+ that the best hitter in the game leads the league in.

Owl held up his end of the bargain of super prospects. Brock, not so much.

The relevant pieces with Brock was really only Kyle Lee, so I think I may get lucky to win that one if Brock keeps playing well enough.


The Stevens trade was Owl/Alfonso Torres for John Robins/Elijah Baker/Mori....of course it's tough to judge based on needs for ML vs prospects at time of trade, but I think I did well on that one. With Mori in there, like I said, based on needs I don't think i can call it a certain victory.
