Breaks

I just can't buy one. Losing 3 of my last 4 in extra innings.

Anyone have any idea why, with my pen being taxed every night the Sim has been pulling my starters after 3 innings?

6/28 Laffey 3.0IP 2H 0ER 2BB 48 pitches.
6/29 Begg 3.1IP 2H 1ER 1BB 45 pitches.
6/30 Egbert 3.2IP 3H 2ER 2BB 62 pitches.
------------------------------------------------
3 games __ 10IP 7H 3ER 5BB 2.70ERA 1.20WHIP

I don't have my MP Rel/CL set. Would it help if I put it on less frequent for the 'pen. Probably not help as my 'pen is the strongest part of my staff, but a guy with forty something pitches through 3 should be able to get into the fifth I'd think.

Also, I hate Kenny Lofton. I bat him 9th and he goes like 8/13. I move him up to leadoff again and he starts cranking out 0/5's like it's his job.

End rant.

If you set yoyr profile to use your pen more often, that would probably do it.

I just cant get enough breaks it seems like, recently beating the Tigers w/ a 5 run 9th. And now a 15 game lead in the division. Things are going smoothly.

Another thing that would help would be not being in the AL East. I hate it. I want out. At least you'll get a high pick. I'm gonna end up with 90+ wins, a 4th place finish, and one of the bottom 5 or 6 picks in the draft. Awesome.

I never should have left Milwaukee. Papi would have hit 80 dingers and Crawford would set a record for triples there. Curses.

I gave ya the chance to head back there brosef. Now we're all locked in at our current teams... FOR EVAR. I think.

I'd think maybe we could move a few teams around for the sake of competitive balance. It's no fun to have all the best teams in one division.

I'm almost 100% sure that in March Bren said that was the last time teams could move but I could be mistaken.

I'm pretty sure that the days of owners moving like gypsies are over.
