Hi Guys,

I tried to put Amezega in my starting line up as a catcher and it wouldn't let me start him at catcher. So something strange is happening here.

There are many important issue being discussed here. I would like to add my two cents regarding roster size. I think to avoid these problems, and also make the game much, much, more realistic it would be nice if; we were required to carry a 28 man roster(at least). It is ridiculous to me that a team can get through a whole season with 24 men. At least 28 would be more realistic, and it would give you more options, and add more strategy! And then 100 million dollars could be the normal salary cap, or the 80 million dollar option for small ball.

As a side note,
I play a lot of CD-ROM replay leagues and with normal(REALISTIC) rest and injuries you need at least 28 guys or you are going to be screwed.

If you forced a 28 man roster, you would, as you point out, have to adjust salaries big time or, change the cap.

Doubt that's going to happen any time soon.

Both catchers can get hurt if one is catching while the other is dhing.

His catchers got hurt in two different three-game series. As stated above, the usual ifs/ands/buts don't apply.

I'd love to know. I just set up with Posada (inj = 6) to DH and bat 2nd until he goes down, with Napoli at C (inj = 4).

If Posada goes down in the 2nd inning as DH, can Napoli go for a 15 gamer in the 7th?

'Cuz that would suck.

I have Baker and Kendall as my catchers. I use Baker vs right handers and Kendall vs lefty's. Last night Kendall got hurt. Hal left Baker sit on the bench and put Teahen in to catch. A glitch in the 2008 game....maybe?????

Can't be simply the 2008 game since this game is in the same game module as ATG, 1986 and 2007.
