Added Ryan Evert to the linked players in my first post, put him up on the wiki after completion.

Now creating backup C Dusty Boyd. 5 or so backups and AAA players left, and I am done and ready to kick butt!!

I will also add a Chargers screenshot to the team page, so everyone can see their uniform designs.

You aren't going to kick butt! My Islanders are much better! :D jk, but they're still better.

This is still a good team. Very good. Good. :)

That's okay man - I'm going for realistic, not kick-butt. I want to play on a hard level, and not totally dominate - actually a losing season would be fun. I especially like collecting the red abilities - hot head, error prone, bad durability, choke artist - thats like 100x more fun to me than playing with uber all-A's guys I created.

Yeah. I'm trying to make worse players, but it's so hard! You have to reload over and over to get bad abilities! You can't buy them! I don't know why anybody would want them, but still! :lol: It's so hard! :lol:

It will be harder to play with as you have to S/L way more times for the RE's to happen as you cannot afford your Eval to drop.

Filled out my starting 25, with Rafael Navarro and Rick Cunnane winning my last two roster spots. Trzesniak goes in the rotation, Reichert goes to the bullpen, and Jamal King goes to AAA.

I still might creat 3-4 more players for depth, but overall, this team is ready to rock and roll.

Added AAA utility outfielder and speedster Joakim Mercado to the roster on the Wiki.

Next up reliever Brad Van Hekken.

I just did a Watch Exhibition game with them, but they lost to my Ol Duffers team (basically made of some the older players in the game, like Tom Glavine, Damion Easley) by a final line of 3-0. They tried rallying in the 9th, but Marco Valenzuela flied out to Moises Alou to end the game.

3-0? We didn't score at all? wow. Well, I guess that's what I was going for - a team that is a challenge to play with, but with realistic players.

I usually pit them again a team just to see as well, and watch...they win a fair amount of the time.

Yeah, and I jokingly made the "manager" out of the beginning letters of the syllables in your username: Andy Orlando Walker.

Also, Calloway, the starting pitcher, had a no-hitter through like 4 innings, but in the first, he had 2 passed balls and a walk.

Another Watch Game vs. the MLBPP World All-star team. The final score was 3-2...for the Forum. The big blow was a ? Home run off of Javier Aceves in the 5th or something. Another close loss for the Chargers.

Man. Oh well.

Whats the lineup? Are you using DH or not? I think it's having Santiago in LF - if you put Evert in LF, that might generate another hit or two.

Well the forum team is practically all maxed guys so the fact that the chargers only lost by 1 run is impressive.
