Drat sorry I'll rerun both.

[mstreeter06]

Reports seems to be fine now. Statslab will be reran in the next 2 hours or so.

[mstreeter06]

And I believe Statslab is all updated correctly now as well.

A reasonable sim, except for losing 2 from 2 against Washington.. how the hell did that happen??

You weren't the only one.  We've won 5 straight!

Yeah I was thinking a couple easy wins... oh well the joys of baseball!

5-2 sim for NC, but it came at a cost.

Big Boots Thompson, who was enjoying the best season of his career with an 11-1 record through his first 18 starts, ruptured a tendon in his finger in his 19th start, and will miss 4 months. 

I'm going to need to have somebody to step it up and fill his shoes boots.

I have veteran pitching available, before the trading deadline, for reasonable prices. Inquire within.

One of the AFBL's best young players, 20 year old Indiana OF Tommy Carr is hitting .397 and has a shot to be the league's first .400 hitter. Something to keep an eye on.

Does anyone know where can I see who made the all star rosters (in game or Statslab)? It's usually in the managers inbox a list of both teams but I don't see that. I want to see if any players made the team that are not in the box score, who made the team but didn't play in the game.

[mstreeter06]

I can put something together with who was selected by the CPU. Sorry about that guys!

Typically I'll manually select the top 2 vote getters for each position and 6-7 starters and relievers. I'll add additional players to replace injured top vote getters as well.

I went to my team (in the game), reports and chose news log and it listed the three guys who made the all star team. Same screen in stats lab, Team, homepage and click on news.

He's been hovering around this mark the last two sims.  He's down from the first two months where he was near .415 at one point. 

His problem is he has next to no power and does not hit home runs at all.  In fact, rarely does he get RBI.

However, he's obviously been a beast at getting on base and allowing Al Fuller to drive him in nearly every game.  It's going to be a blast watching this guy over the next several years to see if he can indeed replicate his rookie year.
