Just got them. Will try to get roster analyses by the end of the weekend.

This is probably the Kiss of Death, but this is probably the latest I've ever had ALL six teams at or above .500!

Celebrate the small victories. You never know when/if another one will come!

I seem to be dealing with a ton of pitching fatigue already, even with my Petco, Astrodome and Dodger Stadium teams. Hopefully it balances out soon.

I woke up to my first Mauch of the season... I was actually feeling pretty good about 4 of 6 of my teams. For the next few hours, I plan to hate them all!

With the DAMP just wearing off, I would expect a lot of people to be feeling this. Though it's definitely more present on some of my teams than I was expecting.

Forgive the ignorance - what does DAMP stand for?

During the first 16 games of the season, fatigue is literally dampened. This is to avoid the death spiral in cases where teams experience long, extra inning games very early in the season.

Interesting. And here I was thinking maybe my guys were getting hit with some early-season appearance fatigue and things would even out. Now I'm definitely nervous.

Is it 16 games? I always thought it was 10 games.

It's 10% of the season. Sorry, don't have a source (just did a quick, non-comprehensive forum search), but I'm fairly certain. Were elbirdo still here, he'd back me up on this, as he laughed as one of my 255M teams crashed and burned after game 16 a few years ago.

Average pitch count for my teams

70M 131.4
90M 133.1
100M 138.8
120M 130.4
Var 131.2
140M 144.8

I knew I would have to get lucky on fatigue, and so far those numbers look good to me. Of course 51-57 is not great. I'll take progress where I can find it.

I currently have three teams in first place. My best team, at 12-6, is not one of them.
