AM I OTC?

 

[Doctor Detroit]

A lot of you all are writing guys with 1.20+ WHIPs and .240+ OAVs. I'll bet a lot of those guys will end up being pretty serviceable.

I bet they won't...every offense in this is better than I was expecting.

Some will ... it'll be hit or miss. Remember, a lot of them will have smallish sample sizes due to their IP being limited by our management settings. It won't surprise me at all to see some of those RPs pitch, say, 1/3 of their available IP, but at a better clip than their stats indicate.

I guess I can't argue with that...these lineups are much better than I was expecting. Even mine is going into the season with an OPS of around .930 and a lot of these pitchers are at the threshold where it could get ridiculous with a lineup like that.

SIM live play is gonna really get to people because it will be fun because I think there are gonna be a lot of runs scored, but from the looks of it these bullpens are going to end up making 4-3 games in the 7th 11-9 games in the 9th. Oh, and then there is the absolute enemy of SIM Live...extra innings. Of course this version probably has more innings in hand than any other we've ever done but I see a lot of 9-8 14 inning games coming.

AM I OTC?

I believe so

when you get a chance, go check out Mariano Rivera's line so far this season :shocked:

Big Unit, Wood, and Hippo better be ready to log some f'ing innings because god help me when it gets to the bullpen. About the only guy I feel even remotely confident about in the 'pen in Bryan Harvey.

"Ouch"

Adding Big Unit helped and I do like my top 3 starters, but after that, it gets very rocky. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised to see Nolan Ryan in the bullpen depending on who I take with my last pick and how I roll.

I interviewed him, Darrell Evans, and two guys who still might get drafted and they were all super. He admitted most of the stuff he did was shtick but one of the guys I can't name said he was actually quite crazy.

My dad can attest that Hungo was pretty crazy. Tough, hard, straight forward guy. Stubborn as a mule when he was being taught how to be a good broadcaster.

Good value there. There are a few really good bats left out there and in one case I'm shocked he didn't go in the first 12 rounds or so.

I would just like to remind the drafting public that legendary 1st baseman Hank Greenberg and his approx 45 HR's that he'll add to your lineup is available.

I seek pitching. Sweet, sweet pitching. I will consider any offer.
