The Tools of Ignorance
In reviewing my team this year, it would appear that the Express have absolutely no legitimate chance to contend this season (four starting positions with OPS+ of 70 or lower) . Thus, we have decided to make Roy Patterson available for trade. Patterson is under contract at 4M through 1905, although since he was a formation draft pick I believe he could be dropped without any penalty to your cap next season. In 1904 he provides 165 IP with a 108 ERA+ and 1.04 WHIP; in 1905 he has 89 IP/136 ERA+/ 1.00 WHIP. I would also include John McPherson or Ed McNichol; neither of them is outstanding but they do provide around 120+ IP for 250K. I would be looking for a second round pick in a future draft for the two of them. If interested PM me.

"A ballplayer has to just go out and be mean. You can't play half-heartedly. If you do, there's someone right over your shoulder that'll take your job away. If you don't do your job, what they're paying you for, why should they pay you? You just can't put in eight hours, that's what a lot of people don't realize about athletes. Very few people realize the pressure." Dave Kingman

Has anyone run any preseason sims yet?

I ran one, but of course with computer generated lineups (other than the Express) it wasn't very indicative of what might happen. However, when the Express had the second worst record even using my own lineups, I knew this would be a long season in Jamestown.Originally Posted by Erik Bedard

Express roster looks fine. Only player not shown is Courtney, who did not play in 1904. You should have received my MP a couple of days ago.

It's 1904, and what would our first sim be without a seroius injury to a Jamestown player. In the 2nd game of the season, Tom Walker is hurt during a brawl and is out for 28 days.
The Cleveland Spiders started off smoking hot with an 8-2 sim, followed by New Orleans and Kalamazoo at 6-4. In the AL, Richmond and Tennessee led the way at 7-3 and 6-4 respectively. It looks to be a long season for Laquey as they stumbled to an 0-10 start.

I thought it was the Dragons always suffering from injuries...?
Also, I'll be mildly surprised if the Sharks don't set a new record for losses this season - especially if I can work out a deal with BigRon for Fielder Jones, or if any other team decides they want a player who's as good as the best FA was, but cheaper.
And I expect to be doing about that bad for a couple more seasons after that.

The Tigers are off to a poor early start to the 1904 season and the sims I've run show us as a middle of the pack team this year. Although we might have one of the best pitching staffs in the league, we can't hit our way out of a wet paper bag. Sometimes I think we're the only team in the league playing small ball in the dead ball era. Based on this, we are already thinking we either need to make some changes to get better this year or decide to cut some players and begin looking at our future.
With that in mind, the Tigers are shopping Deacon Phillippe. Phillippe is signed through 1907 at $10M and performs well in all of the remaining years on his contract (his average WHIP over the remainder of his contract is 1.097). Phillippe was originally drafted to be our ace but has been replaced by Cy Young. At this time I would like a big time bat to improve our offense so a team that is loaded with hitters but lacking in pitching would be a perfect fit.
I'll listen to offers on other players but will be most interested in trading high cost players that create salary cap space in the future.

For some reason, in this league, even when my team does well, I get mad at them for not doing as well as I want them to. Instead of looking at my 7-3 record and how three of my starters were great, I'm mad about Fred Glade's 4.something ERA and how four of my starting batters had ~.400 OPSes. Pessimism, I guess?
seriously though it is great to finally have a not-embarrassing pitching staff. only took four years!

In the Kumquat lineup, please swap catching duties for Carisch and Dooin vis-s-vis LH vs RH. In other words, please put Carisch in lineup vs LHP and Dooin vs. RHP. Thanks.
