JosefStalinator posted:The playoffs are certainly wacky (Marlins??? A's???, but of course STL still makes it), but that's not the most notable aberration of this universe. Is it Brett Lawrie leading the AL in WAR and the likely MVP? No. Is it Buster Posey leading the Giants to a probably MVP, alongside Brandon Belt who led the league with 113 RBI's while the pitching collapsed? Nope. This is the best universe, Dodgers winning the World Series be damned.

Simon went to Boston Latin? Neat. Though his Low Intelligence is kind of worrying, taking his school into account.

ALFbrot posted:I've been in rookie ball for four seasons and my player page has no starts since 2017. Is this normal? The player pages aren't updated: JosefStalinator posted:No it doesn't change - the problem is that I haven't updated the pages in two seasons. It takes hours and I keep forgetting when I go to sleep or go do things, but I'll do a round tonight and it'll be up to date. Though being in R at 24 is kind of disconcerting. Your potential dropped like a loving rock, and I don't think we can just write that off from the scout being poo poo.

Doltos posted:Holy gently caress I didn't even see that. So my guy literally either strikes you out or makes sure you're on base with no inbetween. He's got like a .224 average against too this is insane. You've created a monster - a TTO pitcher. Though in this case we'd have to refer to the Two True Outcomes - the only thing missing is that his loving bonkers GB% (67% - which is absolutely insane) keeps him from giving up dingers.

Alright, made the majors, at 24 no less! Time to Matt Duffy my way into the lineup.

Seattle? Christ, the weather just gets shittier every time. At least it's going to be time to get paid soon.

God damnit, all this moving isn't good for ones career! Toronto doesn't seem too bad, but still, spending your real formative years going from team to team is not good, and it shows!

Great. All that trading and I end up a bench warmer. gently caress.

Yaaaay, a ring! Too bad that it seems like Simon's offensive potential is falling off a cliff, though.

Little Time Sim Sam, well on the way to becoming a permanent replacement player. Still kind of starting, but not for long, I'd wager.

God drat, this is just getting worse and worse. Now Simon is turning into a terrible journeyman.

# ¿ Jan 16, 2016 14:53 |
Well, looks like Simon's a shoe-in for the Goon Journeyman Award for Most Teams Played For. That's another two new teams... I think? He might have been in STL before, now that I think about it.

Well, at least MacGregor is a 3B, which has a bit of that positional value to i- never mind he's a 1B now.

Dat .400 BABIP for MacGregor, tho. He's probably going to crash and burn pretty quick now.

# ¿ Feb 16, 2016 15:55 |
Oh man, the excitement. Two more goons left, who will be the last one standing? It would be fitting for it to be MacGregor, being the ultimate journeyman with a massive career but no actual success.

Clearly, MacGregor, being a Scot, and Fostolfur, having Viking roots, bonded over being the last two goons remaining, went out one night and then got so absolutely hammered that whatever happened afterwards made MLB have them quietly "retire" on that day.
