Yeah, and it's pretty stupid imo. I don't think they'll get to the World Series without him. Imagine being on the bench and watching your team in the playoffs.

Thankfully I don't plan on shutting him down in my Season. :)

I think I remember seeing the number somewhere. About 10,000 for both, I think.

Wow, you guys are way off... The totals are:

MLB Power Pros -- 280,000 (Wii) + 110,000 (PS2) = 0.39 million = 390,000
MLB Power Pros 2008 -- 130,000 (Wii) + 150,000 (PS2) + 50,000 (DS) = 0.33 million = 330,000

Anyone know if using the rosin bag does anything?

I don't think it does anything.

Just an added touch of realism.

I don't think the Nats are being stupid. It's the safe way to go. Why burn out this future several time all star in two years? Props to the Nats for having the balls to do it.

I think it's stupid. They're playing is safe and almost giving up on this season, because they assume they'll become a perennial playoff team in the years to come. And you know what they say about assuming...

Why would you assume such a thing?

Assume what? That I think they're giving up this season?


And I just saw this comment and thought it made total sense

Mark it down. The Nationals will never win a World Series. They are assuming they have the makings of a consistent contender. Not so. They should have planned Strasburg's innings count more long-term, with the postseason in mind. Failure on management's part, which will cost them dearly now and in the future. Baseball is fickle. They may never sniff a season like this again for a long time.

Just drafted a pitcher in MLBPP with the following:

95 TOP SPD
C CTRL
B STAM
4 SLD
3 CB
2 KN
2 FORK

Not bad, if I say so myself.

Yeah... I didn't get to say goodbye... :cry: She was 15 in human years, which translates to about 105 in dog years. She had a long life.

On a lighter note, the Brewers are crawling back to .500, and are only 6 games out of the Wild Card. They pretty much threw in the towel by trading Greinke, but now they have a shot at the playoffs, if they make a huge hot streak.

I think this year proves no Ryan Braun on steroids, as he'd have to have an IQ below 3 to keep taking them after failing a test.

He's batting .312, 38 HR's, and 100 RBI's.
