As awesome as my pitching has been, the lack of strikeouts makes me uncomfortable with my staff's performance, especially since I value strikeouts so highly in my metrics.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice, though, that both Rule 5 picks this year are holding their own in the bullpen. Cloherty hasn't allowed a hit yet, and Villegas is pitching well as a long man.
The lack of power by my hitters also bothers me. Anderson should have 8-10 HRs by now.
Oh, to amend Zev's note:
"After the next sim, any players* in your Rookie League team have to be moved out."
* Unless they were international complex players promoted to your rookie league team after turning age 20. They can stay on the rookie league roster this season. But, the players who were drafted or otherwise acquired in 2028 for the rookie league team, they must be promoted or released after the next sim.
Oh, hey, Houston and Shackamaxon played a doubleheader on 5/7/29!
ReplyDeleteI can't remember the last time there was a doubleheader in our game; maybe in the OOTP 6.5 days?
