    guess I better move on to all-star level

    I pitched two perfect games in the last five games and am 42-19 with the Tigers

    Guess I better crank up the difficulty a little.

    Re: guess I better move on to all-star level

    be careful bro. i went with the same logic after i started belting homer after homer with the cubs lineup 6 games into the season (i was 5-1). after bumping it up to all-star level, i haven't won a game yet! (0-6 since) it's way more challenging and the better of the two options, but i just can't seem to play perfect enough to win. everytime i'm cruising towards an eventual victory, there is some unwravelling late that costs me the game. last night it was a strange a$$ moises alou defensive play. with 1 on and no outs, some dude on the reds hits a can o' corn to moises. i get him under it (in the circle), and BAM!!!...the ball just drops next to him, to the wall...triple, scoring 1, eventually leading to a 4-run inning. i mean...is this the essence of the range attribute? i mean...the dude couldn't reach his arm out to catch it??? i mean, don't get me wrong, i think the real moises alou is an atrosious fielder, but that crap last night was ridiculous.

    i'm about to research the sliders sticky to see if there's a better alternative.

          it took you that many games with that kind of record with the tigers to realize you needed to up the difficulty.

                            Yeah I'm definitely struggling now since making the switch - lost 5 out of the last 7 games I'm having trouble getting the ball out of the infield, and I usually have one bad inning with my defense that puts me to sleep.

                            deuces!
