We lost again, 5 in a row now. This time it was 6-5 to the Yard Dogs. That puts us at .500 now, 20-20. This time they walked us off in the bottom of the 11th. Can't wait to see what that did to my pitching fatigue. We got 17 hits and 3 walks and lost.

Zahn went 5, allowing one run, and was pulled after 71 pitches despite being at 100 before the game with a tired bullpen. Maybe the admins don't like my comments so they played this game manually to phuck with me. Why else would this guy get pulled after 71 pitches in a 1-1 game when I had his target at 110?

Naturally as soon as Zahn left they scored in each of the next 3 innings off of Henderson, Hoch, and Alcala. And then off of McDowell to win the game. Alcala gets a BS and McDowell an L. Tommy Davis with a SF to win the game on as Murcer's throw home was off line.....but they don't have a rating for Murcer's arm, so I guess that throw is just a random thing. Wonderful.

Four hits each for Speaker (3 doubles) and Cochrane, 3 hits for Cullenbine. Murcer homered again. We left like 15 on base.

On to the next game. Yards have 1965 Sonny Siebert (3-1, 1.75) going. We have Mark Thurmond (1-1, 5.54). We have a grand total of one of our 8 relievers in green, Alcala, who is at 92. Henderson is in blue, at 86. Looks like at least one other move is needed as these guys rest up at the rate of like 3 points a day. Bill Harris at 35 will ZOOM up to 39 after next game. Halelujah!

12/22/2022 1:48 AM
Okay, McDowell gone and 1994 Terry Mathews comes aboard. 61 innings with a 3.35 ERA.

Bro, Zahn was pulled because you had a rally going in the 6th. Look at your inning recap. You can set call to the bullpen for pitchers. It’s not unreasonable to think your manager would go for a big hit there.

Thanks, but I already see how it works after 39 games in this season. It works like DOGSHIT. There would be nothing wrong if a guy who pitched 36 innings in a season taking 4-5 starts where he gets 4-5 days rest each time, and then being dropped as if he went back down to the minors. But these ******** instead want to dictate to you that he needs 25 days off after each start. So they won't let you use a guy who was called up to make 5 starts during an injury to do that in their sim, but THEY WILL let you play 3 different seasons of Mookie Betts in your outfield. Phucking buffoons.

With outfielders throwing arms not mattering good or bad, and no holding on runners ratings for pitchers, and where two way players can only be used one way. Whoever designed this sim REALLY had their heads up their *****. I really could not believe it when I looked today for the first time at the single game and one season records. 8 triples in a game. 42 total bases in a game. 98 earned runs allowed in a game. 26 home runs allowed. 482 RBI in a season. Piano Legs Hickman, a position player, giving up over 1,000 home runs in a season.
Once again you think you know better than the people who made the game and people who have been playing this sim for a decade. Thought maybe you’d become more reasonable- nope still an entitled ***.

I had call set to 2 for Zahn. Okay, he was removed bottom 5 for a pinch hitter. No way a manager should do that knowing how short his bullpen is for that game.

If you hate the sim now, you would have REALLY hated the era where some of these records were set. I've got some crazy bad all-time records. But I suspect that all you want to do is whine and draw attention to yourself. Customer Support isn't going to listen to your raging rants. Your opinion will have ZERO effect on the game......Oh, but you are right, the will screw with you in-game when you openly criticize their product.

The exit is still there, Three Doors Down. I quit following this dilweeds garbage but sometimes stumble upon other's retweeted posts. They really need him to cease with profanity. All they did was remove an earlier post but nothing else, so apparently he's still free to dance around spellcheck or get away with saying ******* ***** **** knowing it'll simply be star'd out but the unmistakable intent plus the general whining should still count for something.
What kind of baseball fan has a problem with profanity?

I guess the kind who has never been down on the field with the men.

Holy Phuck!

We were down 13-2 after 3 innings, and won this game by 8 runs. 25-17 final. We got 11 in the 5th and 10 in the 9th. I'm afraid to look at my pitching fatigue now.

https://www.whatifsports.com/slb/Boxscore.aspx?gid=40520843&pid=1&pbp=0&tf=10

Actually the fatigue did not change much more than expected as only 3 guys pitched. What happened was that with the bullpen so short I set bullpen on the starter Thurmond to 1, and they left him in to allow 12 hits and 9 walks in 3,2 innings. Newcomer Terry Mathews then went 3.1, and Alcala went the final 2 innings and picked up the win.

Check the box score, there's WAY too much here to try and give an account of the game.


THREE STARS
1. Bobby Murcer - 4 for 4, HBP, SF, 4 runs, 5 RBI
2. Roy Cullenbine - 4 for 4, 3 walks, 4 runs, 2 RBI
3. Lou Boudreau - 3 for 6, walk, 2 doubles, HR, 2 runs, 5 RBI

They can just have the guy get very fatigued right away when he gets to his seasonal limit, but there's no need to make up BS fatigue before then. A starter who pitched 35 innings should be able to pitch them all in like 5 starts with just normal game to game fatigue, which is most likely how his real life season went anyway.
