Welcome to limbo, where you're good enough at one thing to warrant being on the big league team but not good enough at enough other things to actually start with any regularity!

I think Pnurtis is playing weird positions because he's outright replacing whoever he pinch runs for.

I'm a little upset Pnurtis is still playing in the majors. How is he supposed to get training points if all he does is pinch-run (and tootblan)?

Pnurtis, if he's not allowed at bats, is going to make the Jays rediscover the value of smallball tactics.

or get demoted in the attempt, either/or

Do you have to manually slide or is the game taking complete control of that for you?

Given the way the game fights me at times, it is probably set to some kind of assisted control of sliding. I may need to change that to full manual control (which has a dozen different ways to slide, including "Collision with catcher" so maybe Pnurtis can steal home plate at some point).

I like the in universe Pnurtis looking the options and going 'Screw doubling my pay, I'm going to go beat up on some of the only people worse than me!' Its like when people invite Pnurtis along to a mixer to make themselves look better in comparison. (I imagine there legit reasons people would make the decision you chose, but this amuses me.)



I look forward to yet more FJP. In other words: Pnurt me more. :v:

Pnurtis finally gets an opportunity to start! But it's in the AAA club, not the majors. Apropos, the joke player on the joke team turns in a joke of a performance.

(I also love the Marlins Dinger Machine, that and the in-wall aquariums were the only good thing about that pointless stadium).

The dinger machine does look awesome and I am surprised I never saw it before.

At third base he's an uncanny resemblance to Deuteronomy Slims.

No Pnurtis videos this week, sadly. Technical issues sprang up during the last recording session, but I finally (hopefully) tracked down the culprit. I should be able to record on Saturday, and get videos going again next week.

As I said last Sat, release the footage if you have it still. Make it a bonus. Three of us babbling about the Ottawa Valley while you react with audible confusion needs to be shared with the world.

It'll be just like those radio broadcasters talking about baseball, history, and street philosophy over the airwaves, while you just have to imagine what kind of baseball is going on.

I choose to believe the catcher ironically had too much faith in Pnurtis' ability to Run Fast and Steal Bases, and actually whiffed the tag too early, at which point Pnurtis unceremoniously shambled onto home plate.

That doesn't explain the second stolen home plate though :stare:

I believe the catcher was simply afraid of being barrelled by Pnurtis' Girth.
