Milwaukee Rain and Cruddy Relievers
First off, loving iOOTP...playing out my games and keeping extra stats in an excel sheet is a ton of fun and making the wait for OOTP 12 a breeze (so far). Couple questions/comments though:
I'm playing as the Brewers and so far (i'm 15-22), EVERY home game has had the roof closed because it's raining outside. Is this el nino in Milwaukee? 18-20 games is still a relatively small sample size, and this obviously isn't really affecting the gameplay much, but...just wonderin'. Speaking of...I've read here and elsewhere some issues people are having with relievers. I am one of those people. I play out each game, and I'm sure I'm a terrible pitching coach, but ever since I started playing this game (around v.9 I think), I don't think I've EVER had an effective bullpen. I'm a firm believer in sample sizes...but I just wanted to throw this out there. Here are some numbers I've had for my bullpen so far this season (each row is a different pitcher, the bottom row is the totals). My concern is regarding thse godawful BB/9 & K/BB columns. Code:
IP K/9 BB/9 K/BB HR HR/9 ERA FIP 17.7 6.62 7.13 0.93 3 1.5 14.7 6.75 8.59 0.79 5 3.1 0.7 13.50 27.00 0.50 0 0.0 13.7 4.61 7.24 0.64 1 0.7 15.0 4.20 3.60 1.17 4 2.4 6.7 8.10 8.10 1.00 0 0.0 17.0 6.35 6.35 1.00 3 1.6 3.0 3.00 6.00 0.50 2 6.0 14.3 10.67 7.53 1.42 4 2.5 17.7 8.66 6.11 1.42 1 0.5 ------------------------------------ 120.3 6.88 6.81 1.01 23 1.7 6.21 6.43 Basically what I'm saying is...something is WRONG with the MR in this game...or one of you guys needs to tell me what the hell I'm doing wrong as a manager. Other than that though, I'm having a great time, as I said. I'm sure it's exciting for Markus and the dev(s) to have the game out there finally, getting these great reviews. It truly is a great accomplishment and hopefully helps put extra resources elsewhere in the company...or extra food in your mouths. Whatever! Last edited by jayaresea; 05-13-2011 at 07:46 PM.

I've got bad news for you. I also play out almost every game as the Brewers and the bullpen is awful. I mean awful. The wheels completely fell off the wagon in my season and I dragged to 65-97. Horrible.
I bamboozled the AI with a bunch of offseason trades and it has gotten much better in year 2, but I still haven't solved the bullpen issue. I think Axford and Kinzler (who somehow became good) are the only actual Brewers left in the 'pen for me, though. Good luck! |
