ugh...

man, this team has had the roughest start i have had in years.

http://365.strat-o-matic.com/team/1444762

i can't explain it other than, i am just not getting the rolls.

i swapped out browning/fernandez for dahlen/mcrae. really hoping the rolls turn around soon.

is there anything you can see or would advise? or should i just ride it out hoping everybody returns to normal?

Change your hitting balance to hit right handed pitching better.

Ride it out. None of the teams in your division are powerhouses. When Slim Jones stops drinking and gets batters to chase his stuff he'll be like a new player.

You call 18-24 a rough start? Really? I just had a team start 4-14. Now that's rough.

well they bounced back for a minute and took a hold of first. then they fell back into their old ways. now they sit in second place a few games out of the wildcard. jones and sutter are killing me and the clutch is just a nightmare. ugh...

I noticed your team gave up more unearned runs than any other team in your division. Just an observation.

It looks like a good team now (I realize this post is dated) and you are doing much better. Cheers!

i know, right (Radagast). that's what i thought when i drafted them, but ****. this **** is killing me. first they're terrible, then they are good, now terrible again (got swept this evening)... ugh.....

i sort of hope they do not even make the playoffs at this point.

Why, that team could do some damage in the playoffs... I won 105 games recently only to be knocked off by an 85 win team, so anything can happen. Best of luck!

now with only 3 games to go i could either win the division, win the wildcard, or not even make the playoffs at all.

ugh...
