a week to pull hair out (what little remaining)   Message List

Re: a week to pull hair out (what little remaining)

Given the recent run of complaints like these, I think the Bartons might find a
less testy market if they just dumped the sim and turned each week's outcomes
into a child's Collectible Card Game: a-ha, I trump your C.C. Sabathia
strikeout card with my Albert Pujols home run card. I win again!

think he got into two game for me this past week in Scoresheet and pitched 3
innings gvign up 3 earned runs in th oen innign in th first game (comign as my #
5 guy out of pen) I thought carryforward stats only came into play when a
particular player had unused innings from previous weeks and needed those. If I
guy pitches 7 innings in real baseball in a week does the SIMM still use
provious stats from prior weeks?

Couple of points... The order you list your starters determines who gets any extra starts. So #1 will get the extra start if he has extra start available. If...
