May 20, 200520 yr Just played an exhibition game against the Cubs. I won 2-0 in 14 innings. The most suprising thing is Mark Buehrle got the game winning RBI in the top of the 14th.
May 20, 200520 yr Just finished my first season: I won 105 games. Mark Buehrle got the Cy Young, going 24-5 with 189 K's. Frank Thomas had a late season surge and finished with 42 homers and 108 RBI's. Ross Gload was my second best position player. And, I finished in positive digits in owner mode, purchased an outfield upgrade restaurant, as well as a seating upgrade. I play Baltimore in round one. Boston plays Oakland (who were down ten games in August, yet came back to beat out the Mariners). In the NL, the Cubs face the Mets, and the Doddddgers face the Cards. Hopefully I can win some games to get some money for my franchise.
May 20, 200520 yr I just drafted a team that i felt would be an offensive power house CF: Carl Crawford 2B: Marcus Giles 1B: Albert Pujols SS: Miggy Tejada 3B: Eric Chavez DH: Aubrey Huff C: Joe Mauer LF: Aaron Rowand RF: Alexis Rios I switch it up depending on matchups... giles is really good vs lefties and sucks vs righties or vice versa cant remember. SP: Rich Harden, Dontrelle Willis, AJ Burnett, ......., Dan Meyer(top 100 prospect) BP a bunch of scrubs besides Dotel.
May 22, 200520 yr QUOTE(chi-guy2 @ May 22, 2005 -> 02:03 AM) still dont have the game and dont plan on getting it Thanks for sharing, I'm sure everyone cares...
May 22, 200520 yr Just finished my first season, finally. 101-61 was my record. Omar Daal went 19-4 with a 2.90 era Vlad got MVP going .329/45/145, Rowand was .298/44/112, and J Reed was ROY. Jimmy Rollins had 22 home runs too. I'm going into the playoffs without Rollins, Mauer, Barret, Lohse, and Delucci. Everyone got hurt in September games that I simmed after winning the division. My starting SS is Royce Clayton and my catcher is some minor leaguer that isn't a real MLB player.

May 22, 200520 yr Author QUOTE(Be Good @ May 22, 2005 -> 08:54 AM) Is there a way of getting around making a stadium, when you start owner mode? nope
May 22, 200520 yr Drafted my 1st owner mode team, Lineup: Rocco Baddelli Jack Wilson Frank Thomas Albert Pujos Shawn Green Dallas McPHerson Randy Winn Y. Tallerbi Adam Kennedy Bench: Jason LaRue Willie Harris Ruben Sierra Jose Cruz Jr. Rotation: Smoltz Prior Kim Ohka Kip Wells Pen: Arther Rhodes Herminson Remlinger Koch Graves Urbina Izzy
May 25, 200520 yr Just turned my first triple play, I think, ever. Runners on first and third, ground ball down the third base line, runner tries to go back and Blalock tags him, throws to second for two, and Soriano goes to first for three.
May 25, 200520 yr After winning the WS, I just finished the offseason. My 2006 team looks like this: Hairston A-Row Vlad Aramis David Wright Uribe Derek Lee Joe Mauer J Reed Eric Byrnes Jimmy Rollins Justin Morneau Michael Barrett Prior Lohse Daal Joe Kennedy Jeff Francis Steve Kline Julio Bradford Soriano Tsao I went 11-0 in the playoffs, playing every game. My starters gave up 3 runs in the 11 games, I should really play on All-Star this next season.
June 4, 200520 yr I think I might go by it today. Is it going to be worth the 50$, even if I have 2004?
June 4, 200520 yr Author QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 4, 2005 -> 12:15 PM) I think I might go by it today. Is it going to be worth the 50$, even if I have 2004? Its only 30 and, yes it is worth it.
June 4, 200520 yr QUOTE(56789 @ Jun 4, 2005 -> 05:36 PM) Its only 30 and, yes it is worth it. I guess they followed suit of the 2k games. Well, that makes my decision real easy
June 14, 200520 yr After a lot of trading I think I finally created a team I could live with for the whole season possibly. C: Victor Martinez 1B: Derek Lee 2B: Jorge Cantu SS: Khalil Greene 3B: Mark Teixiera LF: Carlos Lee CF: Carl Crawford RF: Austin Kearns SP: Johan Santana SP: Jake Peavy SP: Oliver Perez SP: Ben Sheets SP: Rich Harden its amazing how you can get value for guys like Jose Reyes even though there are higher SS's rated then him...
June 15, 200520 yr QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 01:21 PM) soooo is anybody about to trade in MVP who would be willing to sell it off? I'm too hooked on the game to ever give it up. Plus since there isn't going to be an MVP next year, I think I'm gonna hang onto it.
June 15, 200520 yr Just did a fantasy draft yesterday and set up my dynasty. Roster looks like this. C: Barajas(Might try to move him) 1B: Morneau 2B: Sean Burroughs 3B: Teixiera SS: Brian Roberts LF: Aubrey Huff CF: Randy Winn RF: Vlad Guerrero Bench: Jeremy Reed Keith Ginter Robb Quinlan Chris Gomez M. Ghafouri (Highly Rated Young Catcher) Rotation and Pen: Peavy Harden Vazquez Garland B. Meyers JC Romero Hermanson Ray King Rafael Soriano Eddie Guardado Guillermo Mota Joe Nathan This was all straight off the draft, no trades or anything yet. Any thoughts? Trade suggestions?

How long did it take you to do the entire mlb draft. I always wanted to do it, but I got sick of it after the 8th round.
