Re: 2012 Franchise Progress Thread

Update on the Nationals

Struggled on the road trip and now i am 13-10,3 games back of the marlins

Hitting has been a HUGE deficiency so i called up Anthony Rendon to take over 2B and move Lombo to SS and Desmond to AAA

Series at home vs arizona and philly!

First game in my royals franchise. Pitching went better than expected, I just can't hit. Truly my first full game on the show... And on all star. Anyway, I am looking to trade Soria, and hopefully find a way to get a stud pitcher. Can you see these pics well?

Yes. Fun fact: there's a screen shot feature.

Does anyone really care where I sent this from?

How do I do this? Lol

Re: 2012 Franchise Progress Thread

Press the PS button on the center of the controller. When you are out at the XMB screen,scroll over to the PHOTO category. Scroll down until you the screenshot option. Press X. Then you will be able to take a picture of the actual screen. You will then need to transfer it to a flash drive and upload it to imageshack (or some other server).

Also, for what it's worth, right after you start a game, go ahead and do the sequence of events I mentioned above--just get to the screenshot option (don't actually go into the function yet though), but now, if you hit a great homer, want to take a shot of your guy on the mound, or see some other replay during the game that you want to save, you can quickly get to the screenshot mechanism while the replay is going and take a screenshot of it. If you go to the longball thread you'll see that some folks have taken pictures as the distance comes up on the screen.

Well, I am 1-2 after my first 3 against the Angels. I play on allstar and this is my first franchise and first 3 games ever on the show. Anyway, I led 3-0 until the 4th when it got tied up, and Hochevar pitched beautifully for me. My hitting wasn't there In this game, and I should've been less aggressive and drew more walks. Anyway, I lost on a walk off single. I am now 1-2. Here are some screenshots!

Re: 2012 Franchise Progress Thread

Well I just lost swisher for 2-3 months with a finger injury. I am at June 21st and wondering if I can get someone similar to swish without giving up too much. Right now I have jones and ibanez rotating depending on the starting pitcher. I also brought up Dewayne wise as an option. Just curious as to what others would do. Im thinking about maybe trading for Quentin or just sticking with what I have until Swish gets back. I may try to sign Hamilton in the off season.

Right now I'm 4.5 games in first in the AL East ahead of the Red Sox.

Would love to hear what others would do in my shoes.

If it were me, I'd first look for a switch-hitter and work from there.

Re: 2012 Franchise Progress Thread

Hey guys.

I just started a new franchise with the dodgers. We don't seem to have many prospects in our organization, should i attempt to trade for A level prospects right away?

Only A we have is a SP btw. Who do you guys recommend I chase?

Nvm I'm just going to wait until the post draft rosters are released

I'd give the platoon a shot assuming:

1. Either one of them are hitting and your team is hitting poorly

2. Neither of them are hitting but the rest if your team is

Wise can cover you late in games when you need a bit more speed. Not that Swisher is an Olympic athlete or anything...

[fran33s]

Well. I'm still doing my royals franchise but I'm also going to play another, in which I sim year 1 with the Yankees and play year 2

[fran33s]

Here we go! More pictures as my royals boost their record to 2-2. In this extra inning slugfest, hosmer homered twice, wells once, and Gordon with the go ahead. Getz also hit a solo shot. A* potential danny duffy threw well. How are the pics!?ImageUploadedByTapatalk1339641164.892121.jpg
