Post subject:  Fukuoka Flyers - Flying Around The Bases

I, Carson Harris, was packing my backpack to go hiking when I got a call on my iPhone. It was from an unknown caller. I hit the "answer" button. "Carson Harris, assistant GM for the Cubs speaking," I said. "Yes, this is Ryozo Kato, commisioner of the Nippon Professional Baseball." "And what the hell do you want, Ryozo Kato?" "No need to use such language, mister Harris," said Kato. "Just tell me what you want, and tell me quickly. I'm about to go hiking," I snapped. "Well, if you're not interested-" "What is there to be interested in?" "Well, sir, we are thinking about adding two expansion teams to the NPB, the Fukuoka Flyers and the Hiroshima Hitters." "What does that have to do with me?" "Well, we got owners for both teams, and now we just need..." "A GM? I'll do it, but only for the Flyers." "Then it's a deal. Pleasure talking with you."

The next day would be the draft, and the commissioner e-mailed me a list of players. Here they are:

Can't wait for the games to start going! Not AS good as the Knights, but this team looks pretty solid.

And the Hitters...Anyone up for McDonald's?

Settings are lock-on 5 and (maybe) semi-auto fielding.

The (maybe), as in, if PPJ can find out how.

It's all on me? TOO. MUCH. PRESSURE.

Good work, this team seems good enough to contend but not dominant enough to be perennial championship winners.

Not a lot of flamethrowers here, so your defense should get a lot of work.

Precisely why I need that semi-auto fielding.

I suck at fielding in any baseball video game ever made.

What do you guys think about the female pitcher, Shizaka?

Iwamura = lol. 4 trj + D power + Power Hitter, G arm str + Cannon Arm...wut

Oh yeah, and PPJ, lofty expectations there.

You expect us to...WIN a game.

Outrageous.

Lock-on 5... as in the max? Or is it different in the Japanese games?

Maybe.

What league are you in? If you're in the Central League, at least you'll finish ahead of the BayStars. ;)

Also, Tanaka = lol. His top speed is 78 mph.

Post subject:  Re: Fukuoka Flyers - Flying Around The Bases

I'm in the league that doesn't have the Carp in it.

Post subject:  Re: Fukuoka Flyers - Flying Around The Bases

Oh, so you're in the Pacific League.

I guess you might finish ahead of the Eagles and/or Buffaloes.

Author:  AgentP [ Wed Aug 08, 2012 8:31 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Fukuoka Flyers - Flying Around The Bases

Actually, I'm going to start over.

I shall be in the Central League along with the Hitters, and I shall have no DH!

(Because I hate the DH.)

I accidentally simmed most of Opening Day. We lost 6-5, and Atsubare was 3-4.

Up to 2 agents are allowed, btw

Tanaka and Takahashi, please.

Did my instructions for semi-auto fielding work?
