E: Houston Astros are the best team in the league with an ERA of 4.45, with Verlander as their best pitcher, sporting an ERA of 4.18. Even if you won, you still had to get 27 Trouts.

I would love to know what's going on behind the curtain that has lead to RF Trout and SS Trout leading the way among the Trouts.

I like that at the very top, the Angels are 0-0, 0 GB, but it doesn't say they're tied for first. It already puts them in 5th.

I'd say swap the Trout pitchers for a healthy assortment of Chatwoods, Giolitos, and Baileys for pitchers but I'm honestly so excited to root for unbelievably rare wins

The old scouting reports said he was a non-prospect as a pitcher, but he also threw a perfect game in high school. You could probably give him Josh Tomlin level pitching stats (FB 86-88, cutter 84, curve 75-80) and worse command and get a rough approximation.

I think I'm going to run the full season this way and then meld the pitching Trouts with late career Jamie Moyer to see what happens.

Trade deadline standings: We've already outpaced our projected win total!  Batting stats, The original Mike Trout is in CAPS. The clone Mike Trout is in AAA:  Fielding stats   Pitching stats:  AL Batting Leaders 1 (The original Mike Trout here):  AL Batting Leaders 2:  AL Pitching Leaders (WAR is FIP-based):  Somehow, no Mike Trouts have been injured. I think this is because of the deep bullpen and the frequency of using backup players. The AAA team is doing much better, at 51-55

I love Chad Harbach who has two wins. I especially love Fish Bonzalez with a 6.18 WHIP, -8.6 WAR, 199 walks, and as many hit batsmen as strikeouts. What were the final scores of the three wins?

I like how our best case scenario is three separate 33 loss streaks throughout the season so far (since we were 2-99 before losing our 3rd win and then losing 6 more). When were we mathematically eliminated from the playoffs? I'm guessing basically at like game 100 or so. I also love how the league has figured out that every attempt is basically a free steal, what with our 4 caught stealing out of 195 attempts And I'm not sure who is to blame for the 177 passed balls either. I wish it showed wild pitches as well.

Julio Cruz posted:How on earth does Mike Trout, a literal honest-to-god center fielder, have 25 errors playing his actual position? edit: those two must be utility Trouts who are actually playing mostly infield positions, but OOTP lists their position as CF. The innings totals don't make any sense otherwise.

They have Jose Martinez as a crappy batter and a ++ defender at several positions. Mike Trout isn't even close to being a top ranked CF defensively in that game. His stats are also surprisingly not that great once you start seeing some randomly generated younger guys develop.

You had questions and I have answers.Poque posted:Can we name one of the Mike Trouts after his brother in law who just passed as a tribute? Aaron Cox. I didn't get Aaron into the game but when I realized there was a Dolly Varden, I decided we had broken the gender barrier. I have no skills with OOTP's face generating engine, so I just uploaded Jessica Cox's photo, instead. Dolly Varden: secretly Mike Trout's wife.  Poque posted:I love Chad Harbach who has two wins. You might think this looks like a high score for a game  That's until you realize, it was just one inning.  Just one inning of the first win of the season, coming on May 31st  The Angels later beat the Red Sox 21-15 in the 2nd game of a double header:   And then the White Sox 46-25.  You can see Rusney Castillo pitched in that Red Sox game and here is is Brett Lawrie pitching for the White Sox:  OOTP now uses position players as emergency pitchers. The strategy for the Mike Trouts seems to be to chase the starter as early as possible and then pin the other team into using a position player or a low stamina closer over several innings.

Here's the depth chart. It's basically the same for all lineups except the DH gets a break on no-DH days.  This is where things get pretty weird. Here are the AL all-stars (Gary Sanchez and Jon Lucroy not picture):  Millville Trout came in 2nd in voting for Catcher in spite of not starting at catcher and his torrid PB pace. His selection as a reserve was important because he tied the ASG with a pinch hit home run and the game went to extra innings.  Also the Mike Trout pitching staff is helping the AL set some new single season records.  IcePhoenix posted:Trucha having a real Nice season so far

I don't understand how the guy hit less home runs per year as he got closer to the PED era. Seems like I forgot to post anything about the end of the season... Here's a Sept. 1 update: Pitching stats on the day of call-ups.  Batting:  Standings:  Team dashboard:  On September 18th, Rainbow Trout interupted me to ask for money. I guess he wins good citizen of the year:  And some of the clones found themselves in some heated leaderboard battles:  End of season batting stats:  Congrats to Crescenti for winning the team batting crown  Congrats to Fish Bonzalez for leading the team in HR [allowed]:  End of season team landing page:  Here are Crescenti's pitching stats, since he led the team in K while aslo starting a bunch of games at 1B.  In the transactions front: The Indians seemed to be the busiest traders. They picked up Cutch and Strikland for Brantley. McCutchen tore his UCL two weeks later. The Nats and O's hooked up for a regional blockbuster with Eaton going to the Os and Britton and an org guy heading to the Nats. The Angels, obviously, got a shitload of trade offers and ignored them all. Next time, I'll post more end of season reports. Some Angels took home some hardware.

Dick Sturgeon managed to be the most valuable (read: least awful) pitcher of the Trouts, putting up the highest WAR (-0.4) least amount of ER's (22) and lowest WHIP (3.50) and BB/9 (11.7) in his 10 IP of work after being called up in September. Now that's making a statement.

Actually I think you'll find that Michel Truite is the winner with zeroes in all of those categories since he was called up in September but never used
