Your teams ERA, WHIP, BA & OBP are all decent enough that you should be doing o.k.

The only thing that jumps out at me is the "relatively" low number of HR's for a Yankee '56 team. You simply may not have enough power and are hitting a few too many singles instead of dingers ......

:cry:

thanx i have been pondering what is going on.

Bunze,

Your OPS is good, actual runs are a bit shy of the model, but that is likely due to the lower HR rate per Coach.

Your ERA is good, but you have 146 errors, you have given up about 80 unearned runs, seems a bit high.

Your RPG vs RA says you should be at .530 WP, so you have lost some close games, guessing that Leff and Staley have a number of blown saves.

Not much you can do now, but Ott in CF and Frey at 2B do not help your pitchers much.

Things should improve, but it might be too late.

FWIIW, sschu

Don't know your batting order, but I'd consider Wagner, Ott, Cobb as my 1-2-3 hitters.

thanx everyone. appreciate the thoughts. bad dice rolls do happen. cant hurt to try those top 3

One major problem is that it appears you are platooning Cash with Lansford. Bad idea... that plays right into your opponents hands and takes away another coveted lefty power bat in your park. Let Cash play vs lefties, he still has a lot of power.
