    I was jinxing my team, but I thought with injuries, not suspensions!

    So last day for fantasy baseball signups. https://yho.com/mlb?l=119381&k=562e54da2d0fcb27&ikey=d2b4ee943b0f5062

    Still need at least 3 more people, not looking too likely though.

    OK nevermind someone quit already.

    Schide on

    If you play the show on PS4 in RTTS mode, skip batting practice. I keep having the game crash in bp before a game when I check swing and a pitch goes in for a strike.

    Why are you checking your swing in BP?
    Because the BP pitcher throws like an asshole. Also sometimes its on accident.

    I created a LF that was drafted 13th overall by the Padres, so I went back to college for a year and then was drafted first overall by the Dbacks. Signed with them. But I've actually been having fun in Franchise, picking the Mets up from being ranked 30th to 20th (and sneaking them into the playoffs in the last year of my contract to avoid getting fired after failing to hit my goals the first 2 years).

    Then I actually won the division with the Mets and the divisional series against the Cubs (lost to the Dodgers in the NLCS).

    I traded like crazy as you would guess, especially for Kris Bryant (I downloaded a roster from the vault).

    WOwwwwwwww

    I was playing online head to heads in DD and won my first one 5-1 in 4 innings (dude quit). I was in a pitchers duel in game 2 and had just pulled ahead on an RBI single scoring Matt Adams. Pitcher's spot was next, I laid down a great bunt, looked like it might even be a base hit...error, game crashes. Bullshit, man.

    EDIT: And it gave me the loss. I think that's the end of my playing Diamond Dynasty.

    Opening Day is Monday! WOOOO!

    Honestly, the little guy has dominated like every aspect of my life so far. Baseball is probably gonna take a bit of a back seat this summer. Three years ago, when I was still writing my blog, all I asked was that the Orioles got good while I was still young enough to really enjoy it - Staying out late, drinking at bars with friends, celebrating loudly, etc.

    Thanks guys - you definitely delivered the last couple of years.

    It's been crashing for years. They've really dropped the ball on quality

    I thought that this year with the added usage of packs to get equipment they might have dinner something about it but oh well.

    His defense at 3rd is bad and I think I read that the team said he'd likely start the year there.

    Raijin did your RTTS guy get called up yet? My LF just was called up in June 2015. First big league hit was a triple.

    Yes. Somehow I completely skipped AAA and went straight from AA to the majors. My first game I was 0-4 but then I had 2 homers in the next game.

    Okay...

    I simmed the rest of the way just to see what the season would look like in RTTS, and the Nationals won the World Series...over the Astros. Cool story, Show.

    Can they please flip Soler and Castro what the fuck.

    EDIT: Although it is Maddon so I'm expecting 100 more lineup configurations by year's end.

    EDIT2: I just noticed he's got Lester batting 8th. Joe, what are you doing?

    Jesus how bad of a hitter is Lastella to be batting behind a pitcher?

    Or is Lester secretly a great batter?

    La Stella's projected to be a near league average hitter so...I dunno.

    Also check your rosters because a lot of players should be DL eligible now.

    Jon Lester has literally never had a hit in his entire big league career

    He made the 25 man roster, I can't find anything on why he's not in the lineup tonight. It can't be the splits, because he'd probably be in over Olt, if that were the case.

    I can understand putting the pitcher eighth. It gives a better chance to have a guy on base when you get back to the top of the order.

    Don't know if that's his reason or not

    it gives a theoretically higher chance of having multiple men on base when your #3 hitter comes to bat

    i like it
