Team Press Releases / Shirey hits #300
« on: November 27, 2015, 12:01:21 am »
Rob Shirey pounded HR's 300, 301 and 302 last sim to move into 15th on the all time HR list.
His career numbers: 284/377/522 with 302 HR, 854 RBI, 218 doubles and 847 runs scored. Hall of Famer?

Topics and Ideas Discussion / Playoff Series Format (PASSED)
« on: June 01, 2015, 08:30:22 am »
Can I bring up a topic for this off season? This is going to sound salty but oh well.
It probably matters a lot less here than it does in real life, but because baseball is all about last at bats.....
I'd like to see us move to the traditional 2-2-1-1-1 playoff format instead of 2-3-2. I think the 2-3-2 takes away the home field advantage the higher seed has earned through a 162 game season. In a 2-3-2 format, the lower seed team needs to win just one road game in order to win the series in 5 games. However, the higher seed team has to win two road games to win in the same number of games.
Throw in the park that I had to go on the road to play 3 in a row and it gave my opponent an even bigger advantage when I should have that advantage as a higher seed.
I feel as though this, at minimum, neutralizes home field advantage and, at worst, actually makes it easier on the underdog team to upset the higher seed.
I know it sounds like I'm whining just because I lost, and I'm sure that I am to a bit, but I also feel this way in real life when it comes to playoffs and that's why its not used much at all. In fact, I believe the NBA used to use but moved away from it. The argument in real life is it saves money by only traveling twice...but that' isn't a problem for us.

Team Press Releases / Railroaders bust out the lumber
« on: April 13, 2015, 11:02:55 am »
Think 1B Rob Shirey is ticked the Railroaders can't win the big one?
During a 20-4 beatdown of West Virginia, Shirey had the game of his life.
He went 3/4 with 4 runs, 3 home runs, 7 RBI and a walk. Shirey tied the PL records of HR in a game (3) and RBI in a game (7). But he wasn't the only one.
Darrel Hamilton tied the PL record of runs in a game (5) and hits in a game (5). He went 5/5 with 2 walks, 5 runs, 3 RBI. He had 7 PA and got on base 7 times. Helped him to a .447 OBP for the first sim.
