Nice! I'll be checking in every once in a while.

Thanks bro, it's greatly appreciated!

[Swarley]

Wow, looks like you are piling up the injuries.

[beamerball811]

I'll follow but it looks like you need to adjust your hitting sliders.

Oh and fuck the red sox

Yeah, I just don't know haha, I'm killing the ball, I keep sticking it out to see if I go slumping.

Wow, looks like you are piling up the injuries.

Yeah, but fortunately it's not too bad. Boston has a great farm system with players that can step in.

This past game was with adjusted sliders. They had the third out on a routine ground ball in the fifth, however there was a throwing error and we just capitalized on it.

[killgod]

looks like they may have helped. MLB 11 is very home run friendly!
