Ok this has been bugging me..........

[TGG]

Where is my hitting ! I know pitching has been tweeked a bit, but my hitting is very bad. In my open beta league, hitting is great :

League FastSim 39 :Baltimore

September 28, 2010

Shannon Stewart LF .296 11 43 123 68 .375
Jerome Jolly 3B .311 23 3 101 109 .379
Mike Piazza C .286 25 0 66 83 .352
Todd Helton 1B .285 32 0 123 103 .383
Dave Kim RF .331 23 7 103 96 .394
Lucas Rozis SS .275 25 24 108 92 .367
Tony Lai DH .313 14 12 85 100 .383
Ruben Mateo CF .307 13 13 86 90 .365
Jimmy Rollins 2B .308 4 20 59 61 .377

Now if you still are using peaks ( when a player will be at thier best)

Piazza is 41
Helton is 36

Most the other players are in there early to mid 30's


But then you get into the private leagues:

League Mogul Enthusiast :New York TGG

September 3, 2001

Tom Goodwin CF .206 2 51 66 25 .292
Steve Quang 1B .287 9 2 70 56 .384
Alex Rodriguez SS .337 49 19 137 136 .417
Barry Bonds RF .276 52 12 110 130 .407
David Justice LF .241 32 0 77 83 .334
Manny Ramirez DH .267 23 2 80 95 .387
Todd Hundley C .208 29 0 63 82 .335
Aramis Ramirez 3B .243 4 0 36 41 .321
Luis Sojo 2B .210 5 0 37 27 .233


A-Rod, Sojo, Ramires, Quang, an Goodwin are putting up numbers I would expect, but everyone else on the the team ? Where is the hitting there ? HR's are fine but the hitting is very bad, the OB % is preety good, but hitting, nothing, an most of these players sould be in their prime.


Next league:

League NABL :
Detroit TGG

October 6, 2003

( This one will be harder because I have poor players )

Julio Lugo SS .318 22 23 87 89 .374
Adrian Brown CF .273 15 22 69 68 .353
Mark P. Johnson 1B .253 18 5 75 65 .343
Scott Rolen 3B .297 16 1 67 63 .400
Scott Spiezio 2B .247 13 1 61 75 .329
Craig Biggio DH .252 10 16 84 36 .356
Garret Anderson RF .266 9 3 58 55 .312
Brad Ausmus C .263 15 6 63 75 .343
Wendell Magee LF .247 10 6 67 60 .324


The hitting here is shacky at best.

All players should still be in their prime.


********************************

So where is the hitting ? The mound get raised ? all the pitcher turn in to Randy Johnson over night ? Poor lighting ? What is the deal ?

I'm with you TGG, I have similar hitting woes on my fastsim team. I don't want to complain too much because I have a heck of a pitching staff that keeps me in most games.:D

[Slugger222]

If my latest games are any indication, things seem to be shifting back a little bit. At least that is what it looks like on my team.

How are the other members of your league fairing?

[Cipster]

In one of the leagues I am in FastSim47 there are a whooping 11 teams with ERA's under 3..... Nine of them in the NL. Most of the other teams have ERA's around 3.
Hmm.... Who sais there is not enough pitching in baseball?

[Particleman]

Yeah, in the leagues in which most of the real life players have retired, the hitting talent has been horrendous. I've been hoarding hitting talent at all costs in these leagues, because it's been so hard to come by. The pitchers in these leagues are dominating these poor hitters.

[TGG]

WHERE IS MY HITTING !!!!!!!!!!

Half way, an I still have some very bad hitting on my teams

[drew]

Well, right now I think Clay should turn on a good ol baseball game and see that offense is going nowhere but UP!!!!!!!!!!!

[James Grove]

Clay has posted an update to the CD-ROM game to address this.

If it works well in testing, we will post it to the online game.

Cheers,
James
