Re: Inter League Play Starts

Great thread mnhert, I really like how your doing it. Are you playing all your games or simulating or a mix of both? I'm asking because your A's have already completed a bunch of games, which is what I want to do for my Braves dynasty thread, but I don't think I have the time. I heard an effect strategy is to play one game of each series and simulate the rest. How have you played your schedule so far?

Re: EChavez

Thanks very much for the support. I like your deals as well. Some of your additions look to make you a very powerful team. Good luck the rest of the way.

Re: willdtarheeler

Thanks for reading and your support. I have been playing games here and there and simming some. Out of the 60 some odd games I have probabley played about 20-25. It works well becuase I really cant play a whole 162 game season so I sim some games. I like having the 162 game stats so that is why I do it this way and not use a lesser games season. Anyway, good luck and i will look for your thread.
