In my opinion, the Braves orginization is the best in baseball without a doubt. To have different players every year and to keep going to the playoffs, 13 straight no less, is nothing short of awesome. The one thing they have lacked : POSTSEASON PLAYERS! I hope to change this...as I revamped this team. I've used a modified UNIVERSE.DAT where I edited the some of the braves stats, to match what they've done in the 2004 season. I pused Chipper down a bit, same with Andruw Jones, and made the proper adjusments, to Adam LaRoche, Charles Thomas, Jaret Wright and a few other pitchers. I also went around the league to the top ten pitchers and hitters and editied thier stats so they would mirror thier season stats with the REAL WORLD stats of this season. After all, I wanted this to be fair. This is what I've done to change Atlanta...
First thing I did, was trade Andruw Jones...this kid has so much wasted talent, and he's frustrated me for years. He could hit 8 homers in a three game series, then strike out 8 times in the next three game series, BAS-TARD! So I traded Andy to Baltimore for Jerry Hariston and some cash. I won't make Jerry my starter, but he'll be a solid backup to Marcus Giles. I moved JD Drew to center and made Eli Marrero my RFer and Thomas my left fielder..oh well here is the offense.
1. Furcal SS
2. Thomas LF
3. Giles 2B
4. Drew CF
5. C Jones 3B
6. Marrero RF
7. Estrada C
8. Laroche
Backups -
Julio Franco - 1b
Derosa - IF
Hairston - IF
Tyner - OF
Perez - C
Green - IF
PITCHING
I had to get rid of Hampton, he's a SOLID pitched, but he is too dam-n expensive. So, I've gotten rid of him...and traded for a million bucks to the White Sox. So here is my pitching....
1. Jaret Wright
2. Russ Ortiz
3. Paul Byrd
4. Horacio Ramirez
5. John Thompson
Closer - Smoltz
Setup - Alfonseca
Short - Gryboski
Middle - Reitsma
Long - Cruz
Alt - Jose Capellan
lots of AAA Players...
let me sim it...RESULTS SOON!
