Re: "Captain Hook" Returns -- Cincinnati Reds -- MLB:The Show 08 -- ps2

Hey man, see you are rolling right along like myself. Hope you turn it around soon.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I have been. I will be taking a short break after the 3rd game of the series against the Tribe while I play a week of my ch2008 legacy and a month of appearances in "Nolan Ryan"'s career in RTTS.

I'm really not doing as bad as it looks. Compared to real life at the same point in the schedule, Sparky is only 3 1/2 games behind Dusty's pace. Dusty has a make up game to play against Florida later in the season. That's why the "1/2" game. Dusty was 20-23 after 5/17's game and Sparky is 17-27. I'm also only two games behind the Bucs and three games behind the 'Stros. After the finale against the Tribe, it's time for a west coast swing as we are off to "La-La Land" to face the Dodgers and then down the coast to take on the Padres at Petco.


I'm looking to pick up some more pitching while I try to cut the payroll so we'll see what the trade winds blow. I'm being offered a bunch of starters but their salaries are way too much except for two of them. Milwaukee is offering me Yovani Gallardo and the Yankees are offering me Joba Chamberlain.

Scouting Report

Overall: C
"Not a bad hitter, but may be more suited for a platoon role."

Contact: D
"A below average hitter who will struggle to hit .250."

Power: D
"His power is in line with league averages. No upside here."

Fielding: F
"Helps keeps ERA's down, the bad way. He is a liability at his position."

Speed: D
"Does not exactly fly around the bases."

Potential: A
"All-around talent makes his future a bright one."
