I'm wondering if I did not build it properly for Dodger stadium. I was 50-35 at one time and have fallen apart to 51-48. My guys weren't producing at all and Swisher and IRod kept getting injured so I dropped them and then dropped Alfonzo and Ford to be able to get Rolen. He better have been worth it...so far after one night I don't think so. :( I'm glad this was a free game. :)
So guys...it's too late to do anything now but did I just not build this team right for my stadium? Thanks for your help. Pedro is available but I don't know who to trade for him...probably nobody.

Can someone at least tell me what the hell went wrong here? lol And I mean before I dropped the players...they tanked before I really dropped anyone.

Canuck... probably just your team evening out due to "law of averages".
A couple of ideas/observations though:
1) Your team is/was very RHB dominate... makes it easy to pitch too with in-expensive SP's;
2) Your rotation (after Clemens) is weak... unless pitching to a team similar to yours; :wink:
3) Looks like your down to working with about $67 mil in salary. Very difficult to compete with $80 mil teams. Next time you have quality guys like IRod and Ford, look to trade them before you drop 'em;
4) Your cheap RP's are getting too many innings... with the weakness of your SP's, you probably could've used 2 decent R2's ($3 mil range) instead of 1 expensive stud like Gordon.

Gee, I'd give you advice, but since I'm "not part of the community..." :roll: :wink:

Coffeholic, thanks for your observations. Yeah I should have tried to trade them but it seems almost impossible to trade here. I'm happy with how Cotts is doing but Atchison is getting worse.
PBTR...what do you mean not part of the community? :shock: :D

Oh now I know what you mean. I think your contribution to this thread lacked "contribution" but I won't hold it against you. We all have a grumpy streak. :wink: Try and have fun ok? That's all this game is about. And yes, you are part of the "community". Hell, I am and you've been here longer than me haven't you?

Wait a tick...I can't see Rolen...and I still see Alfonso there...ooooh my I'm soo confused :lol:
Guess you made some more changes...
As it stands right now I agree it'll be tough with the reduced payroll but I think there's still time to make a decent run. How do you match against your division?

Hey Cummings, yeah I dropped Rolen and picked up Alfonzo again and also Perez. This kind of limits the drop in value of my club since I had them to begin with. I was matching up very well against my division until lately. Guess I just went wrong somewhere and it's gonna be hard to fix. I'll have to be creative.
