Its July 28,2012 and the rangers have a 69-35 record with 58 games to go. I have been playing a rangers dynasty on MLB 09 the show and it's year four in the dynasty. I have won one championship in 2009 but lost in the playoffs the past two seasons. Boston has won the last two pennants and look to repeat. I like to play all the games so it will be slow but I play a game a day. I would post stats, standings, and league leaders. So let's see the final 58 and how we do
I will include pictures and video if possible to make it a better thread I will do this tonight. I will also begin a soccer, college football and basketball, nba,hockey, and nfl hope you enjoy. I follow the seasons so baseball is being played right now so it will dominate my time

Now I am in August 2 and we have a 72-35 record and a 15 game division lead. The season has been dominated by teams I like to call super teams. The LA dodgers have the the best starting five I seen: Brandon Webb, Kershaw, Francis, Verlander (who they got as a free agent) and kuroda, all there pitcher have a winning record and are the second best team in baseball.
Who is first? None other than the Boston red sox, who as a team is hitting .300 and have a 76-31 record. In my past ten season the red sox have won the AL pennant eight times with seven world series. Their champions right now and look to beatme and the Yankees again to reach the promise land.
Also I had Cliff Lee 7-6 4.00 but was not pitching up to par so I traded him for Stanton who the marlins had in triple A. I had to deal some players for the rangers budget is small and I have a lot of players being free agents at the end of the season. Getting rid of Lee 14 mil and Cris Davis 9.1 mil (I don't know why I paid that much four years ago) I saved 23 mil and hope to sign this off season: Grenkie, Kinsler, Feliz, Riley, Cruz, Holland that's at least 50 mil I will need. I got Evan Longoria on a trade for CJ Wilson 16-7 2.94 last season stats. It was an upgrade since the rays had Joey bats playing third and longoria is not due for a pay increase for another year and is only making 900,000 this year.
I hope to have video when I figure how to add it and also pictures.
