Had a 2-4 sim. I've got the best ERA in baseball, but completely cannot hit. This was also my last sim with Floyd, so I'm pretty much done this year. I've got a lot of offensive bats in the minors, but they're all a few years away. I'm just going to have to keep building with youth, and try and come up with a way to master OOTP. Why am I getting such good pitching performances? I don't get it, but I'll take it.
Also, a question. On my team page, is that everything that I'd be able to view if I had OOTP (and not a Mac)? I want to change up my lineups and the minors, but I don't know what I'm looking at (and what to send to bossplaya).

5-1 sim.
Swept Detroit and won 2 out of 3 from Cleveland.
Zito had 2 wins this sim. Pitched very well.
Pavano has improved to 5-0, 2.27 ERA, has just been sick.
Sweeney had an RBI streak of at least 1 RBI in 11 straight games! It got snapped as he went 0-1, and walked 4 times.
Durazo had a 2 HR game, one was a Grand Slam, recorded 6 RBI's.
Hudson got his first win in a CG, Mulder picked up another W.
Halama has been great as a #5 starter this year, got his first loss in a 2-0 game, couldn't get any offense going.
All in all still loving what I see, as I have a comfortable lead in the division.

5-1. Took the lead(or tie, whatever) in the division.
Had very good games all around and it was by far the best sim of the season. I'm feeling the current line-up so much. It's like everyone but Ramirez is just fire. Which is cool cuz I'm almost sure when my team is going through tough times he'll get hot and I'll love him.
Pedro had 2 more great games, Lowe had a great game, Washburn did mediocre in his debut but still won. The bullpen again was great.
Just gotta keep winning right now. I'm learning about this game so much with my team sliders, it's really slowly getting better.

Again another disappointing sim going 3-4. We are pretty much, as said before, inconsistent in every aspect of the game. Our pitching had a couple of great outings as well as bad ones. Our Hitting has been awful without no one in our everyday lineup hitting above .300 with exception of C Moeller who only has 60 AB’s this season. Finley leads the league with 10 hrs but that hasn’t help us at all since he also only hitting .232. Schilling and Randy keep on pitching very well and still are the numbers 1 and 2 in the majors with 50 and 47 strikeouts. Webb keeps on struggling while Patterson keeps on putting up good numbers in the minors. We are one of the worst teams in the majors cause the lack of consistency, lets see if we can get something going by making some moves.

Took 2/3 from the Yankees Got Swept by the red soxs, though I feel we played really well vs soxs. Best pitching performance in this series and we just could not hit. First game: Lost 6-3 Harang got roughed up 5 ks in 2.2 innings. Nickle blew the game though. At least lyon was out in 3 anyway.
Second game: Lost 3-1. Roy smith called up from the minors pitched a great game, 5.1 innings, 8 ks, three walks and 1 ER. Nickle blew the game again though, second ina row. hes going back down.
Third game: lost 1-0. Good outing from Ramon ortiz 7.1 innings pitch, 4 hits, 1 er, 3 walks, 3 ks.
First game vs yankees beat them 15-1.
some good things are happening in the minors for us. just became the top system in the league.

4-2 sim. Took 2 out of 3 against the Mets and Nationals. The pitching has been pretty inconsistant, solid vs. the Mets and horrible vs. the Nationals, but we are improving.

Garland horrible once again and the offense was shutout against the twins. Im betting that was the first time all season. And then a huge 20-2 loss against the twins yet again. No Comment. Salvaged one game with Gary Glover pitching, somehow. Offense came alive again. Took 1/3 from the Orioles and beat Cleveland with a great start from Buehrle. Interesting week all in all. 3-4 sim puts us in 3rd place at 12-13. Cant complain. It will be interesting to see how the season pans out.

Alright thanks Duce, I'll get to that tomorrow.

5-1 sim. Offense starting to click now that we're on all cylinders with JD back. Hopefully we can hang on until Carp and Izzy get back, or somehow we can find a decent pitcher or 2 to throw out there to help solidify things. Anyone has any extra pitching for halfway cheap, let me know.

We went 3-3. Our starting pitching has taken a spill of late; Lackey and Cook are getting shit on, and even Lohse and Mays have hit the snide. Oh well. Our offense is pretty filthy and should keep us in contention. Jacque Jones and Bobby Kielty are on absolute tears.
In the minors, not much to report. My young future tandem of Tyler and Durbin are doing big things in A and AA ball, respectively. Meanwhile, Hermida's A production has been very solid, and Teixeira looks almost ML ready, though not quite. Love his 7 homer rating, and I expect him to go for 35+ in AAA. However, the home-growns, Morneau and Mauer, are shit thus far, which is really disappointing. Mauer actually has some production outide of his terrible average, but Morneau is a joke. He has like a .560 OPS. Tough to keep seeing.
