Does anyone know the answer to this?

Hey, anyone know when they started running the league so early? Usually you had a chance to make a move as long as you did it before the results ran. I guess no longer.

I find there is no rhyme or reason. Sometimes games run early, other times their late. People were complaining just last week at how late the games ran one night.

Thanks Corky,

What I'm specifically wondering about is whther they are running faster on the first night of the league. Seems to me that they did last night.

Not a great start for the Olympians. After six games we have an 8.27 ERA. I *think* we have at least decent pitching. Ouch. :cry: :shock:

Looooong way to go, but definitely don't like this start.

Addendum: After that lousy start I took at look at the "Sim Misc" stats and, to my surprise, my opponents had rolled on my card most of the time! Not believing this and having only six games to count, count I did. I determined that the numbers must be wrong.

The website had 96 rolls on the hitter's cards, I counted 116. On the pitchers cards the site says 119 and I counted 108!

Now, I might be off by one or two, but it's not likely I'm off by 10 for one and 20 for the other! If you invert the numbers, then you would be closer it would be 108 to 96 and 116 to 119. I can *almost* believe that, but the numbers are still wrong. Do a rough count of rolls by adding ABs+BBs, I get 229, their total is 215, just aren't that many HBPs!

Anyone else want to see if they get simlar results?

Same here Joe. Haven't hit so far, which is worrying in my division. And injuries are killing me. Hopefully we can right this ship, and fast!

Just about to leave for Singapore, so we'll catch you guys from there tomorrow.

Hey Big,

I've got a Nephew who's traveling in that neck of the woods. Will you have any time to meet with him? If so, send me a note via FB or something.

That's pretty alarming Joe. I don't have time to check my numbers but i'll take your word for it. Pretty strange indeed.

Maybe drop a line to customer support for an explanation?

Joe,

I'm in china through 19 November and than back on 11 December to 22 December.

I might go to Beijing next week but I call Shanghai my hometown.

You got to toss the heat inside and force the hitters away from the plate. Otherwise, I'm surprised that your SPs are getting hit hard by RH batters.
