Stealing of home, unassisted triple play and inside the park homerun

Does this 23 year old rookie for Cincy really have 16 HRs and 38 RBIs through 19 games? wtf

Sheltown may follow George shortly with his own firesale...Wu included.

Through 20 games, my bullpen has 7 losses.

Another crazy stat, in 50 appearances last season, my closer gave up 7 earned runs. In his 1st 3 appearances this season, he gave up 5.

I thought I had a solid bullpen, time to regress to the mean!!!

First perfect game ever?


Also funny, Omaha pulls the plug on their season, sending Wu to Sheltown in a controversial trade. 7 days later, Omaha has a better record than Sheltown.

Not quite the same.. but similar...

My closer didn't give up a run until the All-Star game last season. He's already given up 3 this year.

Competition hasn't quite be the best (well, better this sim), but those numbers are nuts. He's killing it right now. Same kid that started his career with home runs in like 4 consecutive games (1 was ITP). He's the reason that Sanders wasn't resigned.

Really testing that cold weather theory and injuries thing out in Boston!

My 3 best pitchers have gone down for 3 weeks or more outta the gate.

Schedule has been brutal and I dont see it letting up on this side.

10-10 is an accomplishment at this point.

4 outfielders injured in last two sims including 3 this sim (forcing my back-up catcher into the OF twice in the sim).

I'm assuming if I give the computer control of promotions from AAA that it is going to do crazy shit and not just call-up a back-up OF that is on the 40 man in order to fill in when this many injuries happen in one sim?

Do NOT give CPU control over your ML roster.

I would like to officially introduce you to Jeremiah Mobley and Lynwood Malone.

5-1 sim, Morse loses vs. NE and the rest of the staff mowed'em down. Hernandez won a pitching duel with Thomas Fleming, 2-0. Swept South Dakota and take a 1.5 game lead in the AL West. Allison is down for 4 weeks, so the Johnston signing is huge right now. Wish I could dump Kennedy, but that would put $33mil on the books and just can't do that. Looked at the Development report and 17 year old pitcher Alonso gained 25+ points on a quite a few ratings. Could this IFA amount to something? We shall see.

I see he changed his rotation. Was guessing based on the scouting report.

Nope, that's not it.

Better look at that games box score.

A 4-2 sim for the Aboriginals and the solid, not spectacular but all things considered, start continues.

Wait a second, is this the real draft pool?
