What's your durability? + take in consideration that a player gets tired he can't play every game

[Majingir]

Durability is 89.

And to make things worse...my teams best transaction in the entire offseason(they had 40M in cap space).....Joe Inglett!

Anyways, my RTTS profile.. just finished my first season, which was in AA. Position: CF, switch hitter HT/WT: 6'5 245 Drafted by: Cubs (I was excited by this because I wanted to be the guy to turn this franchise around) Traded: I was traded on June 5th with another prospect to the Nat's for a playoff piece (I assume). I had just started to go on my streak by this time. I had gotten my hitting % up to .347 (by the end of June) before my slump began, I ended up finishing the season around .305. I did make it to the USA futures game as a pinch hitter, where I went 0-1 (I guess this was my call to majors try-out -- fail?) I steal bases whenever I feel like it, lol. I've gotten benched a bit because of it too. I'd say I'm a fairly successful base stealer. I became an every starter before the rogue play and then became a designated pinch hitter and at one point was a designator base stealer (guess I wasn't that good). I just found out another CF got called up to the majors in early September and my manager told he he'd make sure they don't forget about me...

Well...nine games into my second AA season, I'm 5-30 , batting .167 with 4 rbi's. I haven't even gotten an email about my performance..do they not even care? I stink!

Yeah i feel you on that part

Rockies have over 100M+ and they made NO moves but bring in some scrubs from AA

[Majingir]

Should I just sim a few seasons ahead or what?

My guy is 20(I think maybe 21?) and of course I'm gonna be on the same team until he's like 25-26(or at least until I get traded), so don't know if I should just sim until 25-26 when I can finally sign on a team I want to be on.


I really don't see myself playing my guys RTTS for much longer. I think by time september comes around and then things like NHL,Madden are out,and MLB season is coming to an end, I'll slowly stop playing MLB less and less.

Three weeks into the season and I'm batting .220, after going 1-6 (first AB was a solo HR) with 1 rbi and 1 run. I was batting around .247 after the HR.

Next game, after going 0-4, at the bottom of the 11th with the score even at nill, I come to the plate with two on at 1st and 2nd and with the count 1-2, BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE -- 3 RUN SHOT! Walk-off HR! I've now homered in two consecutive games, hot streak?

i had 3 maxed out players and im done with it..RTTS is so boring after a while the same thing over and over

might try out a closer or something

All good things must come to an end and that goes for hit streaks too..
62 games is the new record. Funny thing is I broke the record against the Yankees and my streak ended against the Yankees and a Yankee held the previous record.

Now I think I'm gonna go for the Triple Crown (leading 2 out of 3 catagories as of May22nd). At this point I have 20 homers, which is on pace to become the new single season homer king as well.

Took 5 seasons, but my guy finally got traded. Surprised I didn't get traded 1 time before that, maybe SCEA fixed the trade stuff?

But either way....the best player in the history of baseball got traded for.....Austin Jackson. lol!

Signed a 1 year deal with the Tigers cause I know that after this season is done, I'm leaving and going to Toronto!
