While being in fourth place is not a good place to be, it most likely will get better as the season goes on. With as many players underperforming as bad as they have so far, We should get on a nice roll when they start getting better.

Savouring this, as it may be the only update I'm in first/above .500/with hope of survival. Still, there are changes to be made. Bring up Chipper, replacing Pendleton. New line-up: 2B Ray Durham CF Al Oliver 3B Home Run Baker 1B Frank Thomas LF David Justice (against RHP)/Oscar Gamble (against LHP) RF Oscar Gamble (against RHP)/Magglio Ordóñez (against LHP) SS Roger Peckinpaugh C Jim Sundberg <pitcher> If the DHs stay: Thomas to DH, McGriff to 1B batting fifth. Pitching stays as is, and will continue to do so until Greg Maddux's arm falls off. As well as Peckinpaugh has started, I don't foresee it being sustainable, so I'm still looking for an SS, but it's not quite the priority it was. Edit: Roster post updated here.

Very well. Cabrera to 1st Base, Guillen to 3rd Base, Donie Bush to Shortstop. I had a go with Cabrera at 3rd, but apparently it hasn't worked out. Also, please allow Mr. Mullin to take the 5th spot in the rotation, and bring up Oil Can Boyd to the Long Relief position. Thanks.

Vice City Goose Eggs Ken Williams being injured means that I'm going to have to play Lloyd Moseby for most of the month. I can smell the relegation. Need a 2B too, at least Tulo is holding his own so far. I've likely seen enough of Ubaldo Jimenez. Lineups to come in a bit!

In the interest of making minor transactions as quick and painless as possible, the Rated R Superstars have authorized myself and TKBomber7285 to speak for the team on the following matters: - Injury replacement - Batting order configuration - Pitching rotation configuration Any move that one or the other of us orders regarding these matters should be considered to be approved by 100% of the Superstars' ownership. As 20% owner I approve this measure.

You like Faulkner but find noir boring, tatankatonk? My goodness. Keep Mays starting, but call up Dykstra and send down Bret Boone. Hopefully Lenny will sub in for Willie until he heals. Keep Irvin in left and Grich should be starting at 2B.

tatankatonk Make sure you sim day-by-day, otherwise the AI will mess up the rotations and lineups. Also, make the Taggart League no-DH going forward, you can change it in the league setting menu.

Cthulhu accepted already, but I'm a big Lance Parrish fan. Also, if you want to do me a solid and swap shortstops, I'd be happy to work something out: Luna Landers offer: 1984 Cal Ripken (he'd autoheal for you because of the trade) 1946 Bob Feller 1946 Sherm Lollar (so you won't be shorthanded at catcher) Portland Bulldogs offer: 1984 Alan Trammell (to replace injured Ripken) 1984 Lance Parrish Whichever of your starting pitchers you were planning to replace, so I won't be shorthanded at pitcher (Derringer or Walters?) Should we both survive, you send me 1996 Scott Brosius between seasons as a player to be named later, because Feller's better than Parrish.

Ripken is only out 19 days, and you already have a bunch of players than can handle shortstop in the interim. And you just traded for a catcher, which doesn't exactly make this the most sensible time to trade for another one. And Feller is much, much better than Derringer and Walters. And Brosius is useless in the Super-LEague. I guess I'm just confused.

Withdrawing the trade for a moment while I reconsider. EDIT: All right, Smasher has convinced me that trading Bob Feller is... let me make sure I'm getting this quote right...

"loving stupid, what the hell is wrong with you, I should relegate your team just for making that offer." Figured as soon as I saw Smasher's post the deal was going to be cancelled. You can make a bid for Trammell if you want but I will admit that I doubt I will be willing to part with him too easily.

Sorry for any mixups, they'll be corrected in the next update. Just for clarification: the Taggart League hasn't been playing with a DH, but I accidentally took screenshots of their "with DH" lineups.

Oh right, I forgot to change to my actual pitching lineup now that we can get relegated. Assuming the lineups get fixed, bring Perry, Kaat, and Grimes up, and send Radke, Doak, and Grant down. New Rotation: Kaat Grimes Perry Pascual Ames Gonzales personal catcher for Ames Also, whatever Tony O is eating, give some to the rest of my players

And on that note, here is the Expansion Cup Version! Okay, I promised SmasherDynamo I'd make a tool that automates the process of creating a SuperLeague post and.. well, it's mostly done. I'll try and close the gap, but it's pretty good and definitely usable now. A) Captures Overview, Pitching and Lineup screens for all teams in the league B) Feeds all the images into Rightload so they can be uploaded to Lpix, enabling one click uploading C) When you've finished uploading it lets you copy a skeleton post for use on SA. Installation Instructions
Note: The script will save each update to C:\SuperLeagueUpdate and overwrite any files there. BACK UP EACH UPDATE! Usage Instructions To use:
At the end, you'll have a complete post with all the images in it on your clipboard. Paste this into an SA forum window, ad you just need to add your text, and you're done. Grab me on IRC to discuss, troubleshot and generally debug. I am sure there will be problems. I can also work on adding some features or whatever to help your workload. Edit: Here is a sample of output code:
