Speaking relatively, do you view fielding stats as a wash if they add up to the same amount?
For example, two players with ratings of 90/92/88/90 and 92/90/90/88...they are both SS and in total have the same amount of ratings being input. Or would you say it depends on which rating for which position, as you spoke to earlier with glove being important for SS (and presumably other infielders as well.)

You used an example where both are over what I consider acceptable.   I'd just use hitting ratings in that case.   But, overall, it's position specific.   If my SS option was 88/82/90/90 or 82/88/90/90, I'd probably go with the glove and stick the range guy in CF.

Hey Mikey... trying to get a better understanding of how to take advantage of the medical bug. I've got this guy... http://whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/PlayerProfile.aspx?pid=6470197... eligible to come off the DL today. He was originally injured at the end of last season.... It was a 150 or so day injury. Put him on the 60-day DL... he got one injury bump last season, and then one this season. When we rolled, he had something like 16 days left on his injury. I put him on the 60- day again, knowing he'd only miss a handful of games at the start of the season. He's only had the one recovery bump thus far. Would you think, if I left him on the DL a few extra cycles, that he would get another bump? Or is he likely done recovering?

Couple of things.  1. I'm not sure he has much left in recovery in what you'd want.   Power is 99.   He might go 101-102 but it will revert back to 100 at rollover.   2.  I've had 3 owners contact me with "odd" DL questions in the last 24 hours.    I can't say for sure but I think WifS' updates might have done something with injury recovery.   My opinion:  I leave him on the DL and see as another recovery bump should be on the way.

Thats kinda what I was thinking. How long would you give him? Two or three (real life) days?
4/3/2015 7:41 PM
Until he gets an "injury recovery" or "regular season" cycle.

Who would you prefer as a cheap option to play CF?

Benji Ramirez

or

Eddie Greenwood

Greenwood.  He'll be adequate in the field and a much better hitter.

 Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Antone Pittsley     Mike What would you do? . I am in contention..2 games out of the wild card with 12 to play.  He has about 3 more starts coming...I am very worried about him  blowing out his arm.  21-8  238 innings pitched so far...0 complete games...started 33 games.  He has been a gem like you mentioned.... He is my first ever 20 game winner.....hopefully future ROY and Cy Young coming his way.  Would you throw him out there to be in the range of 250-260 innings for the year?  or would you baby him so he won't blow out his arm(which we have no clue what happens in this game)

He can get close to 190-200 innings if managed properly.   Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Benjamin Diamond    The closest I have is Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Kennie Simpson.   He's getting 160+ and I could easily get another 20 from him.  Your guy is better and has more stamina.
What a prediction you had.....spot on...He won't throw 190 innings or so, but thanks to your advice he has helped keep me in the wild card race.  Thanks Mike  and I appreciate the advice!

If he's ready to pitch(100%) put him out there.   I don't believe the game "overworks" pitchers on anything other than fatigue.

Not a question but you're welcome.

Why was my post reported?  
4/6/2015 3:28 PM
My guess is it wasn't a question.

Does everyone see the same starting price for an IFA? Or does it differ depending on the budget? 
4/7/2015 12:28 PM
Same starting bonus.   It's a game flaw that should be fixed.   My 1m scouting shows 5.5m but the dude looks like a turd.   Your 20m shows 5.5m and he looks like a future HOFer.   I know, if I have the money, I should bid heavy on the guy because 5.5m requests don't belong to turds.    That gives me a theoretical 19m advantage over you.
