Win the Cy Young award, and this is the contract you're rewarded with. Strasburg is getting PAID.

The Cardinals do not have a much depth at 2B and barring injuries to one of their pitchers their Rotation is pretty damn solid. So trading Wong for another starting pitcher seems strange. Not to mention the cubs have Zobrist so why did they need a 2b? Better yet, why did they need 2?

Makes little sense in my mind but then again I can't see what was transpiring in that season to make that trade a necessity.

You don't know the context. Maybe they had some bad injruy woes.

Well, I did admit to that in my final sentence.

Hall of Fame screen shots coming next.

Orioles · 03-18-2016, 11:31 AM

Must be the Indians year, they won my sim as well. My O's were horrid.

AirmenSmith · 03-18-2016, 11:37 AM

Now i'm just posting who I picked. I will not discuss why I picked the 3 I did. That isn't what this thread is for. We can argue in another thread.

Oh and we need to be able to vote in managers.

Surprised at the support Manny got.

Might have to bump up his greed rating in-game.

bigsmooth · 03-18-2016, 11:56 AM

I always change that default setting --- I think the AI makes way to many trades. I set it at Hard/Neutral.

captaincoop17 · 03-18-2016, 01:01 PM

Bautista got 2 years, $84M in my game lol

chriskelly · 03-18-2016, 01:16 PM

I simmed it too. Carter went 57/146!!!!

When I checked the league results vs. historical sim acuracy, it looks like HR's are off by a positive 5%, runs by a positive 4%, steals down 3%. I know I only ran it once; I will try again later, but it seems like maybe power needs to be adjusted down a touch.
