I appreciate your efforts to pretend I have a chance, but the game has already decided. First starting LF Grimes (hitting .309, 3.2 WAR guy) gets a 4-week D2D earlier this month which just goes past the end of the season.Ry wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 10:34 amAnd you won't be facing Howard.Wasted Memory wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 10:27 amI think you'll be fine. We have a four game set against Richmond so it's make or break for one of us. Gives you some room for error.
Then this past sim my starting CF (can't hit, but key defensive guy, and Grimes would be his sub in CF) goes down to exactly the end of the regular season.
2 days later my starting 3B (3 WAR guy) goes out for the next 5 days
If Cookeville wins 3 outta 4 against Richmond and I split with San Antonio, suddenly my lead is 1 game with 3 to play and I'm facing a playoff team while they have the 4th and last place teams from the Central.
I've done this dance enough times to see the writing on the wall. Best, best, best case the game allows me one last gasp of hope in the form of a Game 163 which I will undoubtedly lose.
