@Orlando @Karl Hungus @Travis7401 - Can I play without any kind of closer? These bums are keeping me to 2-11 in one run games. Is there another method?

 

[Karl Hungus]

Sure, set your bullpen to no role

 

[Yankee151]

hah, I knew we led the league in one-run games

I have no closer

 

[hayvis]

I have no closer

Can it make sense to keep my setup guys the same and then have no closer? Sorry for the retard questions. I like the way everyone is performing in their roles other than Clint Griffin, that banana skin that @Travis7401 left there for me in free agency.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Maybe if you hadn't tried to low-ball everyone in FA...

If I had a closer it would have worked. According to my pythagorean record, I should be first (probably with a decent closer), and have 34m to spend in FA next year to improve. No player is worth more than 3m a year.

 

[Schauwn]

WAT

 

[hayvis]

WAT

At a push 4.

Maybe I'm confused...what do you mean no player is worth more than 3m a year?

Sorry Schauwn. I'm just taking the piss. @Karl Hungus is 100% correct. I panicked and low balled everyone as I'm paranoid about what happened to my budget a couple of years ago (when I had fucketed everything). Of course, even I am incapable of making the same mistakes, and I should have spent more money on a couple of other decent players.

 

[hayvis]

Getting back to bullpen logistics, can I use setup guys without a closer?

Hard to say. My bullpen is also terrible so far, so I may not be the best voice in this! A strategy in the past has been to give all of them no role and hope the AI uses them well. Now that we have so many options I don’t think that’s a great idea. I would probably just switch them to middle relievers and set the guys you are comfortable with to high leverage.

 

[Schauwn]

Yes. You can set your bullpen for whatever rolls you want, you dont have to use them at all or you dont have to use all of them and none of them are dependent on each other.

 

[Travis7401]

You can put them in whatever role you want, but they are still bums, lol.

Your favourite Juan Gorilla, set for 2.3 ww. Not bad for a 45 movement 5th pitcher bum. To be fair to him, he's always been (slightly) better than his 45 movement would suggest.

Hayvis has the best Starter ERA and second best Bullpen ERA in JV

JV lol

You can get away with low movement as a reliever, but it can be sketchy in high leverage situations.

 

[hayvis]

JV lol

Don't be mean to me. Just remember that being as you taught me, my performance is a reflection of ur abilities as a baseball guru.

 

[Yankee151]

If I'm in 2nd place you know it's JV!

 

[Wolfman21]

If I'm in 2nd place you know it's JV!

Don't worry, give it a couple seasons...we'll have you comfortable in 3rd

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Yankee will get bored of his new starters he traded 15 firsts for next year and sell them for 2 thirds, then tank so he can draft some HS bluegreen blood 1-1. And so it goes

 

[Yankee151]

I've won a title finishing 3rd, cool with me!

Ain’t nobody trading for those contracts

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Ain’t nobody trading for those contracts

But they are the last pitchers that the feeder league will ever make

 

[Yankee151]

every pitcher in the WBCOL is mandated to die

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Sadly this doesn't seem to be possible.

But do you know what is possible

 

[Karl Hungus]

Bello setting the k's record? Yeah, I'm watching.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Yes. You can set your bullpen for whatever rolls you want, you dont have to use them at all or you dont have to use all of them and none of them are dependent on each other.

Actually you can't thanks to Fuhrer Karl

Whip the votes

[Yankee151]

I forgot about him, I only have 4th rounders to offer though

 

[Karl Hungus]

2083 1st works for me.

 

[Yankee151]

2081 4th and if I win a ring or Gutierrez wins a Silver Wizard and a Glove Wizard by 2083 I throw in my 2083 1st

 

[Karl Hungus]

Dong-hwan instead of the 4th?

 

[Orlando]

Took 3/4 from the riggers, but swept by dam in a short series. Positive week I suppose.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

SNAP! Minmax Seoul now 20-5

7.5 up in May. The struggle is reel

 

[Yankee151]

Dong-hwan instead of the 4th?

Yeah that's cool

 

[Orlando]

7.5 up in May. The struggle is reel

@Travis7401 did have a rough week against the two worst teams
