    Re: 2012 Franchise Progress Thread

    Does any one else here Sim the 1st season of their franchise? Im thinking about doing that with my Mets because I have no offense and need some free agents and for some of my players to develop so I can get someone who can hit in my lineup.

    Thanks Any answer is welcome

      I do not. I like to develop talent and pull off trades to improve the team slightly before free agency.

      Seattle had one seven straight entering Detroit, and on the hill, trying to snap the streak, was former Mariner Doug Fister. This was the first game I've played on the Vita, and I managed to go yard twice with Ichiro and Jesus Montero, but it wasn't enough. Matt Garza allowed three runs, but it was George Sherrill who blew the win thanks to a Price Fielder double. Final score was 5-4.

        Its just frustrating because my last 2 games I combined for 5 hits and got shutout both times. The same thing happened in 11 The show with the mets so I'm just starting to think maybe I should sim the 1st season to get a jumpstart on the rebuilding process

          It's a game when it's all said and done, so if you're not enjoying the first season, sim it. No point in playing games you don't enjoy.

                I changed the way I play my franchise to get more games in. I'm just batting now and I can get games in 30 minute intervals. I can also play two franchises which I like because I can do an AL and a NL one. I'm using the Twins and I'm 4-2 after six games in. I'm the Reds and I'm 8-4 with a game left in my second series against the Cards. Just as fun as playing the whole game so that works for me.

                  What difficulty does everyone play one?? Thinking about switching to veteran since I just can't hit with this lineup on all star

                    All-Star pitching, and veteran hitting with slider tweaks.

                      The Miami Marlins are off to a slow start. Going into The Great Amerian Ball Park to face the Reds in a 3 game set the Marlins were coning off a 12-2 shallacking at the hands of the defending champs. Chris Carpenter had his curveball working like a fishing rod.

                      The Marlins lost their first 2 games vs The Reds 2-1 and then again 2-1. Burhle pitched a great game but did not get any run support.
                      2. Anibal Sanchez found the same fate in game 2

                      So game three the Marlins sent Rocky Nolasco to the hill who through 7 2/3 innings was throwing a perfect game when Joey Votto stepped to the plate and took a 2-1 hanging slider yard to break up perfection. But is was too little too late as the Marlins had a 4-0 lead going into the top of the 9th. Heath Bell came in to get 3 outs (after walking the elad off batter on 4 traight balls) to notch his first save.

                      Gianmarco Stanton broke out with a 2 run shot as well as Jose Reyes hitting a bomb for his 2nd HR of this young season. Logan Morrison is off to a hot start for the Marlins hitting 375 through 4 games with 3 RBI's and 3 doubles. Emilio Bonafacio finally stole his first base after being caught 3 times! So hopefully he can get it going on the base paths as he has been a bright spot at the plate so far.

                      Overall the Marlins are pitching great baseball through 4 games and hopefully the bats will come alive as 3 out of 4 games they have struggled.

                      The Marlins are on to face the Phillies for a 3 game set.

                          Wow. 2 heartbreakers in a row. I blow a 5 run lead thanks to Joe Blanton, and lose 7-9 in extras, then I lose 7-2 after being tied 2-2 until the 16th, because Contrearas falls apart.

                            19-30 with the Cubs in my first franchise play through. So far I've only made one trade. I sent Soto to Miami for Sanchez, Mujica, and Infante. That's working out pretty well so far as Sanchez is 5-1 with a 3.07. I suck horribly at hitting in this game. I'm currently last in the league with a .235 BA. I need some serious help lol.

                              In my Cubs franchise i'm currently 2-2. I started the seaon strong with two wins over the Nationals. In gm 1 of the series against the Brewers I led 4-2 going into the 7th, but kerry wood blew the lead for me and i ended losing 8-6.

                                Make sure you have Injuries set to Manual (Settings -> Gameplay -> General).
