Can't do it in 13 either. It sucks because I know I could at least get a decent shot at throwing someone out with my RF Tucker Davis, who has high-80s arm strength.

edit: But, you know, REALISM, right?

My high school team won the district championship today, taking the semifinal game 3-2 in 11 innings on a walk-off suicide squeeze and the final 3-2 in 10 innings on a walk-off base hit.

I know, right! That comment is up to 91 points now, which is cool. However, the comment calling it an obscure reference is up to 162... I think that shows just how unknown this game is to the general public

Just link them my Success Mode videos, and that may (or may not) help.

Mark Buerhle is 10-1 with a 2.10 ERA. Like damn, Marlins could use that right now.

also, 3rd day in a row that the Phils and Mets have gone extra innings. It's a tough battle for last place.

So... Should I drop Shelby Miller for Mark Buerhle in fantasy?

I'd say yes.

boy I'm glad we got Aumont though. gives up a 2-run HR after the third straight day of extras (38/39 innings, 45 hours). how disappointing.

I suppose. Miller is supposed to continue exploding, but Buerhle is getting a pretty lucky too

I've vaulted up into 4th place from as low as 7th over the past couple of weeks. So it actually kinda matters to me now. :lol:
