I made trades to improve my bullpen and lineup and nothing has panned out. If anybody would like to know specific trades, I can detail them further below, but I am just beyond frustrated every time I play a game. What are some tips to improve my team?

Thanks
Have you tried auto-play to see how the team performs when your computer coach is running things, instead of you?

When I started OOTP, my team performed better when I let it play without my "interference" than it performed when I made the decisions on every pitch. This made me realize that my own coaching abilities (or lack thereof) were bringing the team down.

I had made trades just like you describe and wondered why things weren't getting better - until I realized the reason was my own coaching!!

I had to become a better coach in order to win.

Sharing my own story just to highlight another possibility.
