Seattle Mariners Franchise: 2020
LeBlanc Sent Packing

Before the start of the new week the Mariners have finally found a buyer for pitcher Wade LeBlanc and. Along with LeBlanc and shortstop Cristobal Lopes were traded to the St. Louis Cardinals early Monday morning in exchange for 2 prospects and 3B Jung Ho Kang. If you recall LeBlanc was sent down to the minors after appearing in only 3 games with an 9.53 ERA in only 9 innings of work and his struggles continued in the minors.

With the move the Mariners have freed up some cash while bringing in a quality back up for Kyle Seager and some young talent to replace some aging minor league ballplayers. The Cardinals are hoping a new city and a change of leagues revitalizes the 35 yr. old LeBlanc as they look to extend their slim lead on the defending champion Chicago Cubs.

Miami Marlins Franchise:

2022 Trade Deadline

We made up our minds and we decided to move Drew Steckenrider. After going through many offers we found the package that fit our needs the best and pulled the trigger on our biggest trade yet.

Padres acquire CP Drew Steckendrider (31, 85 OVR, B POT), CP/RP Cliffford Abel (20, 78 OVR, B POT) and 1B A.J. Reed (28, 77 OVR, C PT) from the Marlins for CP Luis Amaya (22, 68 OVR, A POT), RP Carl Edwards Jr. (30, 88 OVR, B POT).

We got what we were looking for with this trade with the Padres. We were planning on moving Steckenrider if we could get back a good, but struggling reliever with another year left and a good prospect. Luis Amaya who was drafted in the first round of the year one draft looks like he can become our future closer. He still has at least two years until he will be MLB ready but we can afford to wait under then. Carl Edwards Jr. has amazing ratings but has struggled in the last two years with the Padres. Last year he had an ERA of 4.67 and this season he comes to Miami with a 5.20 ERA and 1.60 WHIP. Another concern is that he is an FA after this year. We wanted someone with another year of control after this season but we went with the more talented pitcher in Edwards Jr. in hopes we can resign him, although many other teams will want to sign him too.

The Padres were able to move Amaya since they had both him and another A potential closer in their system and they couldn’t wait a couple of years for Amaya to develop as they have a roster that can win now. They seem ok to move Edwards Jr. as he has become a liability for them in their struggling bullpen and he was an upcoming free agent. They get back from us, two MLB relievers and a decent power-hitting 1st baseman. Drew Steckenrider is the most important piece to them in the trade as they have been lacking a real MLB level closer as they have been throwing guys like Nathan Eovaldi, Robbie Ervin and now former Padre Carl Edwards Jr. in save situations but it had not worked well. Steckenrider comes to them second in the NL with 30 saves and now has opportunities for many more. Clifford Abel, who has been throwing amazing in AAA will get a chance in the Padres bullpen. He has high B potential and has been constantly good each season in the minors since he had been with us. They also receive A.J. Reed who will take some at-bats away from struggling Eric Hosmer who is down to a 76 overall.

We felt like this was a solid move for us to make in the position we were in. In this trade, we both were sellers and buyers. It kind of works out to two separate parts. The selling part is Steckenrider and AJ Reed for Luis Amaya and the buying part is Abel for Edwards Jr. I think both teams did well in this trade as we get what we were looking for in an exciting young closer and the potential Edwards Jr. has if he can turn it around. The Padres finally get an actual good MLB closer in Steckenrider who they have going into next year too and we take an expiring and struggling Edwards Jr. off their hands, plus they get back a young MLB ready reliever in Clifford Abel who is under control for a long time. The Padres are a really good team, ranked 6th overall in terms of talent but have struggled this year with a 46-60 record at the deadline. With Steckenrider, Abel and Reed they are in a much better position going into next season or maybe they can turn it around this year.

My only concern with this trade for us, is if we can’t resign Carl Edwards Jr. when he hits free agency. We might have to overpay him on a 1 year deal if we think we might lose him and we aren’t comfortable giving him a multi year deal.

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

Back atop the division once again. albeit tied with the Mariners for first place. I barely made it through this one. As the Advil pm started to take effect late in this one. Probably should have had a few more walks rather than outs. Due to being tired and not recognizing balls going low out of the zone.

Anyway, just glad to get the win to kick off this series.

Cardinals split series with Brewers

The Cardinals split their 4 game series with the last place Brewers over the weekend. The Cardinals dropped the first 2 games of the series before winning Saturday and Sunday to earn the split, which is a disappointing outcome for the Cardinals who were playing well and had just taken 2 of 3 from the first place Pirates.

The Cardinals will now travel to Wrigley Field for a 3 game series with the Cubs before heading home to close out July.

The Cardinals are currently 5 games behind the Pirates in the Central and 1 game behind the Padres for the 2nd wildcard.

Remaining July schedule:

3 @ CHC
3 vs SF
3 vs CIN

Stabilizing The Ship - A Pittsburgh Pirates Franchise

Bucs get washed off field by Cards, Swept

Pittsburgh, PA - Opening week in Pittsburgh got off to an unceremonious start on the North Shore of Pittsburgh as the St. Louis Cardinals came to town, and walked away with two victories after a short 2-game series on Monday and Wednesday. The Pirates had hoped to build on the momentum of taking 2 of 3 from the Cincinnati Reds on the Opening Weekend of the 2019 Season, but a shaky start from Chris Archer, and a forgettable one from Jordan Lyles centered both losses.

Archer was effectively ineffective on Monday's Home Opener, only going 5 strong, and striking out three, while giving up 7 hits on 3 runs in the process. Archer just had trouble putting away Cardinals hitters, and the Pirates were faced with an extremely effective version of Dakota Hudson. Hudson went 7 strong, and only needed 83 pitches to get through to the 8th inning of his start. The Pirates had trouble working any counts, as Hudson was effective in getting first pitch strikes, and putting pitches in the zone that resulted in poor contact.

While Josh Bell and Adam Frazier both had solo shots, the Pirates could not keep pace with the Cardinals in the run spot on the scoreboard. A bright spot that the Pirates can look to is aside of the Solo Shot given up by Nick Kingham in the 6th to Paul DeJong, the Pirates kept 12 of the final 13 batters off the bases on the back end of the game. Certainly an encouraging performance on the heels of a less-than-stellar start from Chris Archer, who continues his struggles in the Steel City since being acquired last summer for Austin Meadows, Tyler Glasnow, and Shane Baz. The Pirates fell 4-3.

On Wednesday's getaway game for the Cards, however, Jordan Lyles might as well have made Chris Archer's start on Monday look like the stuff of a Cy Young candidate. Lyles limped through to only finish the 3rd Inning of an absolute laughter. The Pirates pushed across a single run, while being held to just 3 hits by the Cardinals pitching staff. The Pirates dropped Wednesday's afternoon matinee 14-1.

The Pirates look to build off of last weekend's success against the Reds tonight-Sunday in a 4-game set against the Red Legs. In a rematch of Opening Day, Jameson Taillon heads to the mound against Luis Castillo this evening. (I'll be managing this game, as well as the Saturday and Sunday. I'll be playing the Friday Night game, Trevor Williams gets the start).

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

Miami Marlins Franchise:

End of 2022 season

We have finished the 2022 season and accomplished our goal of at least 75 wins with a 79-83 record! When we reached the deadline with 52 wins I was pretty confident we could reach our goal but I wasn’t 100 percent sure since our pitching can be a nightmare sometimes.

Standouts-
DH Jesus Sanchez .259 AVG, 29 HR, 92 RBI
3B Brian Anderson .282 AVG, 23 HR, 83 RBI, .840 OPS, 4.4 WAR
2B Isan Diaz .283 AVG, 22 HR, 80 RBI, .812 OPS, 2.1 WAR
C Jorge Alfaro .285 AVG, 31 HR, 96 RBI, .877 OPS, 5.9 WAR, .998 fielding percentage
RF Austin Dean .258 AVG, 21 HR, 72 RBI, .774 OPS, 3.9 WAR, 1.000 fielding percentage (!)
SP Jordan Yamamoto 181.1 IP, 3.82 ERA, 1.41 WHIP, 2.3 WAR
SP Pablo Lopez 125.1 IP, 3.09 ERA, 1.20 WHIP
RP Austin Brice 77.0 IP, 2.69 ERA, 1.10 WHIP
RP Jarlin Garcia 65.2 IP, 2.47 ERA, 1.26 WHIP
RP Julian Fernandez 34.2 IP, 1.56 ERA, 1.29 WHIP

A lot more standouts this year than last year which is great. Sanchez saw his numbers drop a little this season compared to last year where he hit .278 with 37 HR, but he still had a good year. Brian Anderson was great yet again and is probably our best overall player. Isan Diaz exploded this year with a breakout season after coming off last season where he hit .212. He has become a really good power-hitting second baseman and hopefully, he will keep it up. Alfaro is a machine on both sides of the ball. His stats this year were godly and led him to his third straight NL Silver Slugger award. Austin Dean has become one of the most underrated players in the MLB. His offence is constantly good, and his defence is absolutely amazing. In 3,979 innings in the outfield for us in the past 4 seasons, he has a total of just 5 errors. He won another gold glove and seen his potential rise from a low B when we started to a A potential and he is still 28 years old.

On the pitching side, we actually have some standouts this year. Jordan Yamamoto didn’t have the craziest year but was our most reliable starter throwing 181 innings. Pablo Lopez was our best starter, unfortunately, he missed sometime earlier in the year so he couldn’t get to see what he would have done in a full season. Brice, Garcia and Fernandez were all amazing in our pretty reliable bullpen. We were a little concerned with just having Garcia as our only lefty, but he showed us that he can handle it. I didn’t mention him in the standouts, but Ryne Stanek was 12/13 in save opportunities after becoming closer following the Drew Steckenrider trade.

The Yankees won their second straight World Series after beating the Rockies in 6 games.

With the offseason coming up, we have 3 players who we sign to 2-year deals in the 2020 offseason all becoming free agents again. We definitely don’t plan on bringing Danny Salazar back as he was brutal for us, Pedro Baez we might bring back if we can’t find anybody else, and Austin Barnes we will be trying to resign as our backup catcher again. Carl Edwards Jr is also a free agent and we will look to sign him to a 1-year deal.

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

Cardinals option Yairo Munoz to Memphis..recall Bryce Denton

The Cardinals have option 3B/IF Yairo Munoz to the Memphis and recalled IF Bryce Denton. Munoz has struggled in his limited plate appearances with a .224 average with 3 homeruns and 11 RBI's. His OBP is under .300 as well and he is striking out at an alarming 40% rate. Munoz also has had his issues in the field where he has 5 errors in limited innings.

The Cardinals hope that sending Munoz down and getting him regular at-bats and innings in the field will correct his issues, so that he becomes the reliable bench player the Cardinals will need for the march to October.

Bryce Denton is a 25 year old prospect who has already played 6 games for the Cardinals at the big league level this year, before being optioned down and landing on the IL. Denton is 7 for 15 at the plate in the big leagues and has yet to strike out. He's a reliable fielder who can play 2B, SS, and 3B.

Denton will join the Cardinals for the series finale against the Cubs in Chicago.

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

Ok, I need to edit all pitchers in this game (other than my own) to throw anything but curveballs, Knuckle Curveballs. I had a HORRIBLE game at the plate in this one. No thanks to starting this game in daylight.

blindfold me and scream swing as if I am trying to break a freaking pinata!! that is what this game was like. We got the win but it was in doubt all game. At least in my mind... we are back in control of the division. At least for a day so I'm happy!

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

let this be a lesson to all of you. never take any opponent for granted no matter how big of a lead you may have. seemingly no lead late is safe or as safe as you would think it to be.

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

At least that is my hope!!

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

Love reading all of these franchise updates.

Personally I am struggling to stick with anything this year. Absolutely LOVE the game. The problems are mine. I'm really having issues with my anxiety and PTSD and depression this summer. I have started or carried over no less that 16 or 17 different franchises and have deleted them all and restarted over and over again. I've made my own rosters, I have done Fantasy Drafts, different teams.

Countryboy can attest. Every time his phone beeps he is probably like OMG what has Bullit done now....(sorry about that my friend)

But yeah this has been a tough summer. I have played easily over 162 games and I have, currently, 4 franchises going all still in Spring Training and the chances of me sticking to one? Slim at best.

So you guys keep plugging along, I am enjoying your Franchises more than I am apparently enjoying my own.

No worries my friend.

You're trying too hard to find that perfect franchise. Just take a break for a minute, play a different game and think about what you really want out of a franchise mode and what you're wanting to really do.

Hope you find what works because the game is damn good this year.
