Here are the batting stats. I will add the pitching to it shortly.
How does the pitching work? It says Chris Sale has pitched in 3 games but no starts.

So like I had mentioned in the beginning I auto-set all of the lineups and rotations. I couldn't do each one exactly as everyone listed it. For the majority, it got very close. I just looked and he simply was ranked lower than the other five in the current rotations.

1. JR Richard - 80
2. Smokey Joe Williams - 73
3. Jose Rijo - 70
4. Vida Blue - 66
5. Smokey Joe Wood - 62

Chris Sale - 53

In this case, I had imported Sale as he was already pre-built and it looks like it was when he was younger. So there may be some adjustments needed for more of his prime years to be added in. I can plug in some numbers (i.e. factor in some better years as well) and see what we get.

Changes have been made. If anyone sees something like that please feel free to say something. I wish I could keep an eye on every player, but timewise it just wasn't possible.

Dude you’re amazing for doing this. I play ootp and trust me, I can spend 8 AM to 10 PM JUST adjusting my minor league organization and making a few small prospect trades and not even advance a day.

Those who haven’t played ootp would be amazed to know the work this takes! You’re awesome.

Game of the Week

Too many awesome games to put up just one...so….

Monday - San Francisco @ Pittsburgh - A great pitching matchup between Jim Kaat and Bob Friend put this game at 2-1 San Francisco going into the bottom of the ninth. Luckily Roberto Clemente had the poise to tie it up with a solo homer. There was nearly a whole other game played and it was the impressive work of the Giants’ bullpen (7 IP, 5 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 4 K) that helped them pull out a 3-2 win which was finally capped off by Josh Gibson sac fly in the 16th.

Final Score - San Francisco 3 @ Pittsburgh 2

Tuesday- Cincinnati @ Boston - Cincinnati sent starter Cliff Lee out to the mound in the bottom of the ninth to finish off his complete game after his offense added an insurance run in the top of the inning to put the score at 4-2. A walk and an error put runners on the corners and Bill Terry got them to within one with a single. Once again there were runners on first and third and this time it was Vern Stephens who poked a seeing-eye single to tie up the game. Bill Dickey didn’t allow the game to go too much longer and put one in the seats in the bottom of the tenth to walk it off.

Final Score - Cincinnati 4 @ Boston 6


Wednesday - Minnesota @ Cleveland - This one was a barn burner! In total the teams sent 10 balls out of the park while three different players (Babe Ruth, Boog Powell, and Lance Parrish) had multi-homer performances. The fireworks didn’t just end with the offense as the Twins clawed their way back from an early 8-3 deficit to score in each of the final five innings, eventually tying the game at 12-12 with three runs in the bottom of the ninth. The run took too much out of them, though, and they couldn’t hold down the Indians much longer as Mark McGwire hit the walk-off single in the bottom of the 10th.

Final Score - Minnesota 12 @ Cleveland 13

Interesting that OOTP has been starting Edgardo Alfonzo over Bregman almost the entire season. Wish we could undo that considering how well Bregman has been playing.

Also, shoutout to Larry Walker. Got a ton of flak for taking him because of the Coors Effect. Dude is balling out in the simulation.

I can change that for you. Any changes your want just let me know. And yes I do have an aversion to the Astros, but that didn't factor into any of the ratings.

Yeah, if you could swap out Bregman to make him the starter that would be great. But no big deal either way.

Could you please remove Carlos Gonzalez and add in Billy Williams for him? (Baltimore Orioles) is my team.

Game of the Week

Detroit @ Baltimore - The visitors looked like they were about to steal a victory against the Baltimore Orioles in this one as they took a 7-5 lead at the top of the ninth inning. Closer Kenley Jansen couldn’t get the job done, though, as he held his head in dismay after giving up a walk-off three-run homer which traveled a whopping 497-feet off the bat of Carlos Gonzalez. These are looking like two solid teams off the jump and maybe we just saw a preview of a playoff matchup?

Final Score - Detroit 7 @ Baltimore 8

Tampa Bay @ Seattle - This was certainly a fun one as two talented teams duked it out over 16 innings of baseball. An eight-run first inning by the Mariners looked as if it would hold up until closer Lee Smith surrendered a game-tying two-run homer to Alfonso Soriano. It took a bit more for the away team to finish it off, but eventually, it was a Johnny Bench walk with the bases loaded that secured the W for Tampa Bay.

Final Score - Tampa Bay 9 @ Seattle 8

Miami @ Dodgers - After a 2-2 start through four innings of this game, the two teams failed to get anyone to cross the plate until the 16th-inning. At that point it was Paul Molitor who finally preserved a win with a 374-foot three-run homer that put the Marlins ahead for good.

Final Score - Miami 5 @ Los Angeles Dodgers 2

A 5 game win streak to jump up into the top 5 of power rankings! Still haven’t had a coldest hitter and have started to have top performances! I like this better than the voting, even if my team ends up last!

Can't complain about the rockies performance so far although Biz can't stay off the cold list. Even the people he taught like Campenella are finding their way there.
