I accidentally gave JosefStalinator Tony Clark instead of the Will Clark he drafted, so I fixed that.

In the end, it comes down to throwing one pitch after another, and seeing what happens. With each new consequence, the game begins to take shape.

i thought we were doing 95-2015 the whole time, good thing it was only one year and probably didn't affect anything other than i might have tried and failed to get molitor in the first round.

This would be where I would post a screencap of Treble In Trouble, but I didn't take any or if I did the hard drive I had them on crashed

so instead I will mention that last time I used 1994 Lance Johnson in Mile High Stadium he hit 70 triples batting 9th

The crazy thing is, with single seasons, Molitor isnt even that good. He is a bench player on my limited pick team.

My team is 90% complete after round 5.



Very happy with all the position players. Starting pitching was a challenge. The blue jays have had a limited amount of great starting pitching, and Clemens and Halladay were gone fast. Very happy with almost all the players I used had good-great careers or years with the jays, with notable exception of Vizquel only having a token role as an old timer. Just need a 5th starter, another bullpen arm or two and a backup catcher.

I already have 18 players and meet the PA/IP suggestions, do we just keep doing more for backup? This is my first time doing what if sports so I don't know how the bench, injuries, etc work in the simulation.

You still draft 25, this theme has no salary cap so it doesn't count against you.

there aren't really injuries. they only last 1 game and only happen if a player is super fatigued.

draft for more depth, relief pitchers or hilarious comedy picks. the world is your oyster.

No injuries so pinch hitting, defensive replacements, bullpen depth (or weird pick mascots)
