I will say

When people were complaining how it was too hard to win games, I kind of ignored it knowing they would eventually win and there's nothing wrong with the game being a little challenging.

But as I've been playing this years game I have kinda thought back to those sentiments. I find myself thinking that perhaps there may be some merit to it. I have a solidly built team, certainly not a great team but one that should probably hover around .500, not be one of the worst in the league. I look around the league and I see teams winning that have 3 "1 star" guys in their rotation, and just really shallow teams.

I wonder, not if the game is too hard, but if the game weighs superstars too heavily, as if it was a basketball game where one guy can make all the difference.

(I do think bullpens value in this game is worthless, but don't get me started on relief pitchers in this game)

What do you guys think? Have you noticed any of that?

I will put up some screenshots soon.

Yes it's only June and a small sample size, but the twins pitching is atrocious.

You'll also notice billingsly, salazar, and smyly, all washed out former starters in the bullpen.

I would be going to those two 24 year old relievers with a little potential.

What team are you? Can you post screenshots of your team?

I can't any more I'm way too far in.
That Twins team kept it up but didn't do anything in he playoffs.

I'm not seeing much more like that anymore. Just the exaggerated park effects are the only thing that's standing out. But that's been part of the game forever. Just wish they could decrease it justtttt a bit.
