What was with all my pitchers popping fielding this week? It seems like my coaching staff apparently have been trying to improve the defense even more by having the pitchers take ground ball practice... not how the owner envisioned an improved defense, but I won't fire everyone for it until it actually fails.

I thought you ran the UCLA team and stayed independent of the rest of us. That's really cool. 12-14 currently. As long as we grow as a team, I don't really put too much weight on wins and losses. And a lot of prospects improved, so I can't complain

I had two guys that were itching to get playing time in the bigs late last season, but were denied their opportunity due to a highly contested pennant run (that failed, I might add). Solis started 6 games and went 6-0 with a 0.83 ERA, .101 BAA and 0.508 WHIP. Burks only had 76 at bats, but scored 21 runs, nailed 4 homers, had 28 RBI, while hitting .434 and slugging .750.

Good hitting, 844 ops. too many ground balls as usual (same as major league roster). Bad pitching, 5.03 ERA,4.73 FIP and 1.5 whip. Notable players Gill and Pratt went both over 1.000 ops with 100 AB, curious thing is that i'll probably have to release one of the two during the season (unless draft goes really bad in the remaining picks ). as for pitchers Cardenal and McGuire went really good, with ERA under 3.00. They will never be stars, they are very undeveloped, but could be useful players.

The only reason I kind of care who people play is because when someone misses the opportunity to play their minor league guys, especially the ones who are behind in development, they lose out on developing players the best that they can, which can lead to more underdeveloped players flooding waivers, and more claims on the guys who actually have a shot at hitting their potential. I realize there are a couple possible logical fallacies in there, that is why I only "kind of care".
