Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

While anxiously awaiting this release...

I thought I'd pose this question to those of us playing the Orioles franchise. How are you going to tackle it? Sim most of the first year or two, as they probably losing a bunch and play when times are better?

Any kind of trades looking to make?

I honestly don't know where I'm going to start. Figure have to make some trades to at least get rid of some junk. Wouldn't mind getting rid of Hardy and make Machado every day SS for kicks.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

I am trading Hardy and Jones for prospects; sadly the rebuilding continues...

I'll be playing the full 2012 season, as many games as possible. And playing some minor league games while I'm at it.

This may not be the place to ask this, and don't bash me... How would Nolan Reimold play at 1st base? I'm not a hardcore enough about baseball to know how his skill sets translates at 1st base.

They're moving him there? Obviously reactions are more important than playing left field, learning to hit the pitcher in stride, the second to first double play, holding runners on... more goes into than people realize. As to how he transitions, doubt anyone here will know until we see him play there.

No no, they're not moving him there... I was just curious for my franchise... I'll be looking for any and every reason to trade mark reynolds and chris davis.

Nolan actually played a little 1st in the minors. He isnt as glove ready as davis or reynolds for that matter. I will be keeping Hardy and moving him to either 2nd or 3rd and trade Reynolds. Davis will be my 1st basemen till i can either draft or trade for some prospects.

I'd stick with Davis. Huge power potential, and he has made adjustments to maintain a more consistent eye level.

I'm doing a complete rebuild. Wieters, Bundy, Machado, and a few promising guys in the minors are safe. The rest of the team is up for grabs.

oh did you change his bating stance along with some of the other SCEA guys stances?

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

I like hardy is why i would move him to 3rd or 2nd. and Davis for me would be trade bate eventually when he hits 30 or so haha or move to DH Reimold will be my DH Chavez to me is the better fielder. They both will go eventually haha. Brob will sadly be gone too. One of my favorite players but he is getting up there in age too. Plus Schoop will be my 2nd basemen anyway. Flaherty will probably become my LF or RF since L.J. might make the big step this year.

No, that was part of the delay on me getting it done. I was editing them too, and had to go back on a previous save... the roster I sent, the SCEA MLB guys are all untouched.

They will edit anything that needs editing on the master roster.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Baltimore Orioles

The O's will score enough runs either way. The lineup is pretty good, it's their pitching that will let them down.

Can't wait to see Bundy... word is that he was the most impressive pitcher at camp without ever throwing a single pro inning. Kid's a huge talent, fully expect him to breeze through the minors and be up within 2 years.
