If my total payroll is a little over 102 mill Why am I in a $200 mil TOC?

Probably 'cause you are in a $200M TOC.

Ya There were a bunch of Waa AAA. So does sim count your AAA guys towards the total $ amount even though you can't access them?

only the ones that are on your active 25-man roster......they count at their full salary and NOT $200K

He's facing $100m in offense (most likely) rather than $50M which is what you drafted him to do. His numbers would be expected to be worse. Have you kept his pitch count and pull setting the same as it was when he was in a $100M league?

thx wonker that makes sense.
pull setting 1 higher. pitch count the same. I never play anything higher than 120 mil so i'm not used to having him get shelled. he does alright at 120 and less

In 1913 Walter Johnson would face guys like Speaker, Jackson, Cobb who are all around the $8M SIM level (for 1913). In your 100-120M league he would face mostly 6-10M Sim level hitters...in the TOC he gets a steady diet of Ruth, Bonds, Lapjoie, Hornsby, Williams etc all in the 14-17M range. He's gotta do worse. He might face one 10M batter per lineup before, now he gets 6-7 and many of them much higher value than 10M. If your pull setting is at 1 he will be in to pitch out of a jam but he will be facing many more "jams" as before. His TPC Target pitch count if set to 100 or higher will allow Sparky to keep him in for 5 or 6 innings of "jams". He's gonna give it up. I would adjust his TPC to none and set his pull to more like 3...and of course I would try to put a fresh keg of ice cold beer in the opponents dugout.
