GAF MLB League Thread: The Curse of Bagwell..

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
Jesus nothing like having to face back to back pitchers who throw 98+ and have insane offspeed pitches.

Burnetts knucklecurve is just ugh.

Man not having Andy and Roger is just killing me,Jennings is so-so compared to them,but the dude's stamina was at like 50% in the 4th inning,I could just barley get him through the 5th.

Toronto's lineup is the shit compared to last year,they have many weapons on O :( Adding the Big Hurt was huge.

WHY DIDNT YOU! :p

HAHA, i thought i was doomed when you knocked my first knucle curve out.. then i realized it was only effective if you had just seen a couple of 99 mph fastballs :p

Yea it can be seen if you start off with it,but tossing in a couple of 99 mph 4 seamers and haha automatic K.

Damn having to face Roy and AJ to start a season is so depressing.

I don't turn it to always on like Konex, but I do use it. For guys with small strike zones and big batters eyes it can be a big advantage.

Pujols falls in to that category :)

I use it (by clicking the analog stick) to move to a certain location (normally on the edge of the strike zone).. then i can tell that the pitch is not a strike if the pitch is moving to that location, and is not highlighted. Then again, when the pitch is highlighted, i tend to panic and screw up.

Yea and keep it off bitches! :) Click the stick... And holy shit, when BB's reliever came in Howards batter eye was the whole ****in strike zone...lol

And CJ why didnt you intentionally walk Manny or Ortiz? You can do it if they start killing you (which they did, :lol ) The first couple of innings i wouldnt like to see it though. Use your better judgement and the situation at hand(open base at first, etc.)

If there are any rules, wouldnt it be smart to put them on the league main page? Thats what we would always do in our Madden and NBA leagues.

Is there any way to see your rotation / bullpen settings? I can set hitting lineups, but nothing for pitchers..

The Batter's eye is actually on by default, however, seeing the eye cursor is off by default.

Strange it was off on default on my version.I didnt even know about it till Konex was using it against me.

MY COPY IS USED! :eek:
 
My rotation is:
Rogers
Bonderman
Robertson
Verlander
Maroth

Just wanted that to be clear, because the league site has it differently. My first 3 games have followed the rotation above.
 
crap i dont know much about my rotation. i dont know any of the sox players.... although in my first 3 games i used 3 different SP. i thought the game would just automatically have a rotation and put the next guy to pitch as the first pitcher.

Fmt it does,you're fine.

Unless you wanted to pitch wih someone else first then you would have needed to let everyone else know and create your own starting rotation.

Say I wanted to pitch Roy O 2nd and someone else first I would have had to tell Zep.

Ok 10 it is.

Its not like I have super ace on the mound :p Besides Roy I dont have a starter that can throw heat....get ready for some 88 mph fastballs from Woody Williams!

My pen is shit and cant hold a lead anyway :(

Seriously **** that last game.

I give up a 2 run hr to Wells cause the games lags when I throw the ball and I end up throwing a fast ball right down the middle.

Then I have a sure DP to continue the game on and I press the right buttons and biggio doesnt release the ball to the short stop.

That was bs all around.

I didnt lose that,the game itself beat me.

That pissed me off,I dont mind losing,but I dont like the bs factors that caused me to lose.

I miss Show.

7 people havent even played 1 game,I have a bad feeling about a 22 team league.

Konex,Ck hasnt played 1 game of his first series...Zep said we cant go ahead :\

So I have to sit around now that I finished my first 3 games :(

I can't understand why I was without my relief pitchers from game 1.. B.J. Ryan and Brandon League had only pitched 2 innings each on that game, yet they are still not available for me to use?

Getting 1 game done takes awhile and these are 3 game series,we can be sitting around for awhile.

I dont want people in the league to think I'm bitching at them,people have lives,its just we have a lot of people and some people have more time to play than others.

Either the league should have been smaller or some how the schedule needs to be opened atleast 1 week ahead to give the people who are faster somthing to do league wise.

Playing random games is ok,but it's not the same.

The Show league was a full flex schedule and was working well till the lag destroyed it.


edit- I messed up with the 21 games thing,Im tired.
