Strat-O-Matic Baseball 365

I so carefully plan my player moves. I use a custom spreadsheet to analyze every move before I make them to make sure I have enough cash. I doublecheck and triplecheck my figures. And then I check Transactions to ensure another manager hasn't at the last second picked up one of the players I'm going after. But then, I move quickly. Too quickly last time...

I dropped Bob Allison to pick up Duke Snider and then dropped Billy O'Dell to pick up Mike McMcormick. These changes I didn't make lightly since it involved a 20 percent drop penalty. But why did I still have $1.893 million? I had picked up Russ Snyder instead of Duke Snider.

I hope I don't get too many extra-inning games the rest of the year because I had to drop my 10th pitcher so I could get the right Snider/Snyder.

Moral: Don't just doublecheck your figures, doublecheck your player names in every transaction!

Also don't make player moves after excessive alcohol consumption. It rarely works out well.

Or if you are an insomniac like I am and wake up in the middle of the night and start making moves. Ambien users especially.
