    I think it is just annoying when it happens in video games haha
    tell me about it...i wouldnt know where to find the motivation to keep playing if i ever had 10 guys on the DL at once especially if they're key cogs

      I dare you to take a look at the Blue Jays' DL.

        June is over in my 2012 sim. We are sitting at 39-39, 3 GB in the division and 5 GB. In the wild card.

        In my shoes would you just take it for what it is and start shipping off players or would you ride it out till the deadline? Remember it is a sim but the Stro's are sticking around

            Sounds good. I might do that. I was just trying to get to 2013. But hey the Sim Stro's are hanging in there so why not lol.

            So you started playing games in yours? How's it coming?

                JD isn't doing much for me either. I tried telling you Harrell was a stud lol.

                What moves did you make?

                    Hahahaha.

                    What did you have to give up for Morrison? That's an interesting move I think.

                    I'm having issues at 1st, LF, and 3rd. Wallace got sent down and Pearce is holding down 1st. Moore got sent down and brought up Hessman to man third. He's doing ok, but Parades is about to take over and see how he does. I lost Lowrie for 2-3 months with a broke foot. (he was horrible for me all year anyway). And like you, JD just isnt producing. Schafer is staying strong. Maxwell is on the fence. And I'm platooning bogusevic and Francisco in right. It's not doing to bad. Oh and I through maxwell in right from time to time. My line up has been up and down

                      i gave up a very-high B and 2 mid/low B's for LoMo only cause im gunna sign him to an extension in the offseason.....Wallace has decent numbers minus the average and RISP.....thanx for bringin up Pearce cause i need to promote him to the major-league squad to add a power bat off the bench in addition to Maxwell....Lowrie has the same issue that Wallace has....horrible average and horrible RISP..... JD has started to pick it up ever since i moved him into the 2-hole and started playing with him....Schafer is hitting 8th for a reason lol.....Bogey's been plain awful

                        Do you recall who the three B's were you gave up for him? If I go after him, I will be giving him a long term deal as well.

                        Pearce has been raking for me ever since I called him up. Even though it's only been a week or so. He hasn't hit for power, but has a high average

                            Ahhh, so you did end up giving up DeShields. That's a shame.

                            He's actually not very fast in Scott's roster. It's tough to rate speed. Would've raised his base running ability, though.
