What team are you GM/Managing?

Re: What team are you GM/Managing?

While I will run an Indians franchise over the long haul (that is, assuming that everything is on the up-and-up with this game), I think I will do a season or two exclusively as the Akron Aeros (that is, play the Aeros games and sim the MLB, AAA and A games). I am toying with the idea of leaving all roster contorl to the CPU for this to make it a little more realistic. If you are running a minor league team, you are at the whim of the ML club as far as call-ups, send downs, trades, etc. I want to recreate that. Or I may leave it all in my control. I haven't decided.

That sounds like a pretty cool Idea...I may try that.

Re: What team are you GM/Managing?

I'll be playing with the Royals will probably leave the rosters pretty much the same for the first couple of months. I might bring Hochaveur up fairly soon depending on how well he's doing in the minors. I'll really work on developing Mike Mousatukas, i imagine he's probably in A ball on the game. I'll probably trade Grudzelanek and Ross Gload at the deadline for whatever the hell i can get for them. On a side note, if i had to pick a name for a guy that just sounded like he had to play for the KC Royals it would be Ross Gload. Maybe even deal Dejesus, if Gathright can hit for a decent avg. i'd love to have his speed at the top of the lineup. Definitely need speed on this team. The opening day lineup should look something like this w/ the possibility of Teahen and Gordon switching.
1. Dejesus cf
2. Grudz 2b
3. Teahen lf
4. Guillen rf
5. Gordon 3b
6. Butler dh
7. Gload 1b
8. Buck c
9. Pena ss

Rotation
1. Meche
2. Greinke
3. Bannister
4. Hudson
5. De la Rosa/Hocheavur?
