VSN Baseball Spring Training Random Thoughts

[killgod]

Just got confirmation from SCEA that at resetting stats will not be possible at all this year. They didn't have time to program it in or something to that effect...

So we'll have to deal with that I guess.

It really was a great game. I jumped out of my chair when Victorino gunned him down. I thought for sure I just blew the game. Got real tense at the end of the game.

This is for games that are reset, or unfinished, or both?

that sucks...oh well hopefully it isnt a regular thing to reset a game

default rosters were used.

OS seems to have determined that 0-2 is the RP stamina setting

I knew I was dead early and could have went back, but I wanted a collision. Didn't trigger lol.

Both.

I just played Malbin, 2-1 final, 7 total hits between us.

He struck out 20 times, I struck out 12 (I think). I cant speak for him, but most of my K's were just shitty hitting.

The ball was MUCH easier to pick up with the sliders, but i'm not making judgements on one game.

I intentionally went to my bullpen early, to test out RP stamina. I had one RP go 2 innings (20 something pitches), next game i'll see where he is at stamina wise.

I want to push someone to 3 innings next game. Any RP that goes 3 should be unuasable for a game or two.

I normally strike out a lot but not that much, I couldn't really pick out the pitch if it was a fastball or changeup or changeup or slider lol. But then again that was only my second actual game on this game (first non lag game)

Game 2 versus Hackett I pulled my starter after 5 and intentionally worked the shit out of my bullpen again.

Carlos Fisher, who pitched two innings against the Cubs, was down a tick in stamina. This was pre slider adjustment and he is a long man with good stamina rating. I used Daniel Ray Herrera for two innings against Hackett, post slider adjustment, and he has a far worse stamina rating than Fisher, so we shall see what happens.

I also used Jared Burton two consecutive games. He was down a tick going into game two. He is a short reliever, so he should be down considerably now if the slider works.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Oh, and 8 total hits this time between the two teams, I struck out a million times but I was very impatient and Grienke is tough enough as it is.

All 5 runs came via HR again.

[hackett]

Don't know how stats ended up, but in the post game stats it showed the Reds last pitcher with all of the runs counting towards his ERA.

The first two runs were unearned towards Volquez because of the botched DP which they charged an error. His line was 2 R, O ER, and he got the L.

Oh, you meant Burton.

His ERA was high because he gave up a 2 runs in my first game. The batting averages and ERA's in the boxscores reflect the season totals, not the game totals.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Another game where every run was via HR (4-1, me vs. Stealth).

Daniel Ray Herrera, a left handed specialst who I used for two innings against Hackett as an experiment, was almost completely drained and unusable vs. Stealth, so thats a good thing.

Jared Burton, who I used two days in a row, but not excessively, was usable but had about a quarter of his bar gone.

Carlos Fisher, the long man with decent stamina rating, who I used for two innings in my first game, was back up to full stamina after a day off. Seems reasonable.

Basically, very few RP stamina issues jumping out at me so far. If you abuse guys, they WILL be unavailable.

I used most of my bullpen vs. Stealth, so I should have some good feedback after next game.

[Maynard]

my lg game vs hackett was a 4-1 score. i had a 2 run HR and he had a solo HR.
the game is an exercise in frustration at the plate. i dont get it. there are times where i am swing at shit and its my fault. But there also alot of times where pitches are just not being picked up.

im gonna try a new camera angle at the plate.

What are the open teams I may want to switch up the Cardinals.

Baltimore, San Diego and Pittsburgh, although one should be claimed shortly by a new owner.
