Jason Heyward RF

Nolan Arrendado 3B

My minor league system is loaded as well.

Ready to win the Pennant in 2017!!!!!

Currently doing a Brewers franchise. Am currently 5-5 and just called up Arcia on Jackie Robinson day. After calling up Arcia my lineup is

Gennett/Walsh
Arcia
Braun
Lucroy
Santana
Carter
Broxton
Villar/Hill

Bench is
Flores
Liriano
Maldanado

Rotation of
Peralta
Nelson
Garza
Jungmann
Anderson

And bullpen of
Jeffress AND Smith are my co closers
Knebal
Blazek
Thornburg
Nolin
Pena

Currently 5-4, for my lineup I am dominating with Lucroy and Broxton, Luc has three homers, only player on my team with more than one. Broxton currently has a BA over .500, same with Flores but his is in less at bats. Really struggling with Carter(.150 BA 0 homers) and Hill(.087 BA)

My rotation has been up and down, Peralta has dominated only giving up 1 run in 12 2/3, but Nelson and Jungmann each have an era over 6.

My pen has been lights out all year

Edit: Think this might be better in the franchise issues thread.

Have any of you guys been able to start a fresh franchise where players career stats aren't messed up, even when i am sure the stats for my teams players are correct i always find players on other teams with mixed up career stats.
Have started and restarted so many times that i don't think its possible to have them all correct. Hope it can be patched as i was so exited to have full career stats for players.

Do any of you guys know if it's possible to have Dynamic difficulty start on like All Star instead of Rookie? It's taking forever to even get to veteran for me and I think I should be around all star. Hopefully this makes sense lol

Started my franchise with the O's and it's been exciting so far. On opening day I hit a solo home run with Reimold off Perkins to pull within 1 in the 9th. Then I doubled with Jones and singled with Davis to tie the game (all with two outs!). Trumbo then doubled and Davis scored from 1st for the walk off win.

Game 2 was a little less eventful. But I tied the game in the 7th and then had a 9 pitch at bat with Davis resulting in a 3 run homer for the lead.

opening day as yankees vs stros.
keuchel shut me down. 0 runs on 5 hits all singles
i hate that guy. lol

tanaka left the game in the second with back stiffness [hes ok] mitchell was ace in relief of him throwing 5 innings of one run ball [gattis HR]
i lost 2-0 [springer oppo hr accounted for the second run.

Pineda looks to even the series in game two. [which i am presently playing]
a castro srbi single in the second give the yanks an early lead on an overcast chilly [39 degree] night.

I'm about to start a franchise with the Royals in an attempt to defend the crown/build a Royals-style dynasty.

I am waiting for the OSFM minors. I'm an AL guy IRL as huge sox fan and I will have a sox chise but my main chise is usually an NL rebuild. This year I'm thinking SD or MIL. Which one will be tougher to rebuild?
