This is going to be the first myLife log I'm going to do. I'll update monthly on how he's doing in the first person. Here are his stats:

Top Speed: 90
Control: G
Stamina: E
Pitches: Level 1 KNCB
Pitch Style: Submarine
Team: Rays
Uni #: 4
Age: 18

Can't remember abilities, but I know he has vs. LH Batter 2

First update:

SPRING TRAINING
I just joined the Rays! They're my fav team, and I feel excited to be playing with a lot of young talent! Spring Training was a breeze. I averaged over a strikeout a game and made the major league roster!

Can you even throw a knuckleball submarine? :roll:

No. I just like the motion.

Well, here's an update:

APRIL 25th UPDATE

I'm doing OK, my ERA stands at a 1.93. I've been converted to a closer, and I have 3 saves out of 4 tries. My record stands at 1-1, and I have 6 Ks on the year. I'm seeming to have a problem with my control. (Hey, with control of a G, it can happen, right?) I get close to allowing the long ball, and I don't know why. I'm going to call up coach and see if it's going to get fixed.* Hopefully, I can become one of the best closers in the league. The quest continues. Oh, the team is still residing in last place right now, at 8-12 or 9-12, I think. Well, I'll see you at May 25th!

*=It won't.

MAY 25th UPDATE

Wow! I just got rookie of the month in my first month in the majors! This life is sweet! My ERA has been ballooning the past few days. I can't seem to stop having Vernon Wells hit homers off of me. I also had this weird problem: I couldn't see where I was pitching anymore! This got cleared up in the Cardinals series we had, but has anyone noticed that? Anyway, stat time!:

3.09 ERA
1-2 Record
10 Ks
13/16 SV/SVO

It's looking like it could be a good year for me. I've seen on ESTN (instead of ESPN) that I'm projected to have 29 to 34 saves this year. This is putting too much pressure on a rookie jock like me. I hope I can do good. The team's in 4th or 5th place, maybe 3rd, but we once hit an 8-game losing streak :shock: :( . I hope we can turn it around! Next update: June 25th!

MAY 25th UPDATE

Here are my stats:

3.28 ERA
1-3
14 Ks
22/26 saves

The team is still hovering around 3rd place, so it will take tremendous luck to make it to the postseason. We're behind 1st place by about 4 or 5 games, so it is close to win the division. I don't know if I'm going to New York for the All-Star game. I'll get back with another update very soon!

AUGUST 15th UPDATE

Yeah! It's my birthday today. I turn 19, so that's really cool. I'm almost a 20-year old.

Stats:
ERA: 4.37
Saves: 27
K: 22

You can see I have made a bit of progress. With a little bit of seasoning, I could be one of the best guys in the majors, hopefully. So, I hope I get better and see you next month.

P.S.: Team's below .500. OUCH!

Post subject:  Re: Robert Tomlinson-A player log by dishnetkid.
Well, season's over, we finished in 4th :(

Here are my final stats:

4.22 ERA
39 Saves
28 Ks

Also, Mia has gone steady with me at 3.5 stars. This is weird, since I'm probably not ready for this yet. Off-season updates comin' soon!

OFFSEASON

*I added a Slider and splitter to my repertoire.
*Control is now up to an 80, might get to 90 by end of year.

Have to stop since How I met Your Mother is on.

APRIL 25TH UPDATE

I made the team out of Spring Training :yay: and here are my stats so far:

5.40 ERA
7/7 Saves
1-0
8 K

I'm still struggling, but we just won back-to-back 11-inningers with the Red Sox, and we're very confident. Our team is in 2nd place right now, I think.

NEXT UPDATE COMING SOON!

REST OF YEAR UPDATE

To put it in a nutshell...

*I GOT TRADED TO THE NATIONALS :evil:
*Had a HR in AAA
*Finished the year with 21 saves, almost 5.5 ERA, and almost 40 Ks.

A dismal year for me; hoping to turn it around. I also bought the mirror of truth, but haven't used it yet.

Stat levels

Top Speed: 92
Control: G 89
Stamina: E 51

Level 1 SLD, KNCB, SPLT

Here's to my 2nd year in majors.

Also, who should I negotiate with in the offseason?
Matthew (5 stars)
Michael (1 star)
Joshua (1 star)
