Put Paco Rodriguez back in as closer, why did the game take him out?

Not sure, but the game has clearly been using him as the closer, he has 30 of the team's 34 saves.

Can you put Gillaspie in at third base for Frazier, batting in the same position? Thanks.

The Cubs

Could you swap the roles for Bryan Shaw and Bethancourt?

Thanks.

The Cubs could use a COF bat and could swap one of our starters and a bat for a (better) bat and a (not as good) starter.

Here's a trade proposal for Fairgame and the Orioles:

Orioles send:

2B/SS Asdrubal Cabrera
LHP/SP Matt Harrison

Cubs send:
LHP/SP Robbie Erlin
2B Mark Ellis

This way you get an upgrade at pitcher while retaining a left-handed starter and you probably get a 2B with more range than Cabrera and who can get on base a little. I'm getting (what should be) an offensive upgrade at 2nd and I think my defense can help Harrison a lot.

FYI, I've had Baltimore in a couple sim leagues and Camden is super dinger friendly. Not sure if that helps you.

Cubs



Let OOTP generate my depth charts but set the utility 1 line to only start when the starters are tired and the utility 2 line never to start.

Just insert Harrison into my rotation where Erlin was.

Thanks.

Oh, yeah the third set is projected end of season stats. Trout is at the top of everything because Mike Trout in Colorado is unfair.

Getting the #1 pick somehow was so loving fortuitous. Your check's in the mail IP.

My team's so top-heavy though. My 1-3 are ridiculous, Perez is also doing fine, but I think my bottom 5 are probably, uh, not great.

Seeing Latos throw a shutout is a good sign.

I suppose that given the restrictions on trades and the nature of the league I shouldn't have expected an active deadline. Updates will resume tomorrow night. I'll probably try to finish August by week's end, then September sims will be one week per sim for the playoff race, though I'll try to make turnaround on those faster, and I'll probably skip most of the detailed stuff on odd weeks.
