Export is in. I'll be at Disney today but text me when the live sim starts so I can try and catch it on my phone if possible.
Anyone hear from Knowles? soxandgators Looks like his export is in and everyone is good to go. I'm going to run it live during my lunch today (somewhere around 11:30 or Noon PT)
I am exported fellas. Good luck gents this season brought parity back should be a knock down drag out playoffs full of drama.
Divisional Story Lines Some interesting story-lines or try to create them as I go. abolishthefed Roggie We have some of the best pitchers in the NL squaring off in this series Riley (SF) and the Cubs with their two headed monster in Maehl and Bourns. Will Chicago continue to be the best team into the playoffs or will series play come up and choke them out? I will take the Giants in this matchup, Harry Williams is a bad man. Timpegoose Colemanchu Braves get into the playoffs after not looking like they would when losing OF Clewes and trading away Murdock to the Dbacks, but mysteriously they played better. I attribute this to one of the best pitching staffs in the NL, a staple for Goose led team. I don't really know much about the Cole led Dbacks besides they have some underrated pitching to go along with their OFers of Murdock, Yamada, and Munene with a splash of 3B Swanson. Braves can't continue to play like they have, can they... They will be snake-bitten by Arizona. ty5oke NeuroticTruth I think the two most injured teams coming into the playoffs? I think the Astros get back Kingwell though and that will put them over the top for now on the Yankees. While New York will have to rely on some pitching, from Hamilton, Clark and an unsung hero who will have to step up. Give me the Stros to advance. soxandgators Dru50 Call this the ALCS really, whoever wins this series will represent the AL in the World Series. The juggernaut Sox and the pitching heavy Rays. The White Sox have it all, but I think they lost their SS at the end of the year in Bennett which could be an x factor. If the Rays can steal a victory or two and have David Taylor go twice, lock it up for them. Give me the Rays to upset and go on to the ALCS.
Decent write up Nolesy, but the keys to our lineup are Steve Lewis at the top getting on base and Jorge Cordova drive everyone in. If our young pitching (2 rookies and a 2nd year starter) can rally around veteran lefty Jose De LaCruz then we have a good chance despite what has been a shaky bullpen down the stretch.
Good work KnightNoles. I'm specifically looking forward to Mendoza throwing a shut out against NeuroticTruth
Finally figured out why my outfield looked so bad. Somehow a guy on my roster for the entire season disappeared from it...
Had to face Banda (former Padre in game 163), then Banatyne (former Padre draft pick in in the WC), and now Mendoza (former Padre) in the ALDS. Damn Padres.
Technically San Diego picked him, but they failed to sign him and Seattle picked him the season after.
