Official RBI 30-Team 2011 ROM

[Turd]

Made it up to the 'Stros...moving along nicely...

[Turd]

Phew. Batters are done. I followed my own lineups, so if anyone has tweaks to this, or error corrections, let me know. I'm considering these beta ratings, so feedback me please.

Pitchers aren't solidified yet, only batters. Link is in top thread.

I'll attach the roster dump tomorrow if I get time.

For the lazy folks, here's the sheet with the batting info/orders:

Give Turd some feedback, will ya?  Will change forum news

[Turd]

Thanks, Gantry...hope to finalize things within the week, thought I'd drop the mostly finished product on opening day...

Go Brewers...

[BeefMaster]

Why does Pujols have such a high contact rating?  Just trying to make him less godlike?

[BDawk]

3 Double Plays last night can't help his rating

[Turd]

You know, it's an extension of a debate on had on his rating last year...with the 954 power rating, he was automatic homer (which, even with a 25 contact rating, he's still homerific).  Even at his min power, he's apt to get on base...

There were some guys who hit well but not for power that I gave a lower, midline power rating and a very low contact rating so that they consistently hit at the same level all the time...

Re-Poop complained about Pujols last year hitting too many homeruns, and I could never get through to him that the guy is a machine and deserves Dawson like power...pitchers should be scared to pitch to him.

[Reds]

He also has a retarded kid. 



I think that should factor into his douche rating.

[TheCommissioner]

So you told me to remind you in this thread to put Granderson in for the Yankees in the Beta Rom

[Turd]

12 more pitching rotation/bullpens to tweak, then on to implementing people's suggestions for lineups (very few this year).  Then we can lock it in...

[Mike D.]

Should probably be Lester and Bucholz pitching for Sox.  Beckett is the #3/#4 this year. 

[Mike D.]

Also, JD Drew should get the nod ahead of Mike Cameron.  Cameron should take Darnell McDonalds spot on the bench.  And Cameron, Drew, Lowrie and Scutaro are all faster than Youkilis.

[BDawk]

Do you really prefer having JD Drew in right?

[Mike D.]

Yeah.  Especially over an 80 year old Mike Cameron.  Cameron and Drew are platooning, but it's pretty much determined that Drew will get the lions share of innings and at-bats.

[Turd]

Actually, someone on the Tecmo forum suggested this same thing for the sox. Thanks for the feedback.

[Turd]

P.S. Youk's speed rating should be 127 in my setup...I rate speed based on SBs and triples...

Still, it shouldn't be as high as it is, must have missed that...

[Gantry]

Yeah.  Especially over an 80 year old Mike Cameron.  Cameron and Drew are platooning, but it's pretty much determined that Drew will get the lions share of innings and at-bats.

Mike Cameron isn't anywhere near 80 years old, please get your fact straight...

[Turd]

Pitchers are done.  Really close now, just need to whip through the lineups and make sure I didn't make any glaring errors...

[Gantry]

Be sure and post the final stats, hopefully now that the season is underway people will have a better grasp on their team lineups and abilities
