2013 30-Team ROM - (Roster Preview)

[slammed16]

I'm getting pumped!!!!!! Baseball around the corner &2013 RBI baseball almost complete...what else could a guy ask for? What a way 2 start spring

[VEGAS]

I'm actually more excited for this than opening day. Of course, I'm a Red Sox fan and this year's team ain't looking too good. Like any loyal fan I'll be in love with them within the first few games but for now its all about RBI 2013!

[Turd]

I got all the pitchers rated...last thing on my plate is to scan through the batters, adjust up for down for each team, and set the error values...

[Turd]

Cool, should help a little, though opening day doesn't always represent the "RBI" roster (injuries, guys like Lohse who will start a week late, etc).  Still, it's a good start...

Should be hopefully working in the remaining tweaks tonight...

[BeefMaster]

Twins have finalized their Opening Day roster.  The last bench spot went to Wilkin Ramirez, a backup outfielder I know nothing about.  Opening Day starter will be Vance Worley, since Scott Diamond is on the DL for the opening week, but I'd still go Diamond-Worley as the 1-2 for the ROM.  RBI Bench (assuming you put Ryan Doumit in as starting DH and Pedro Florimon, the #9 hitter, in a bench spot) should be Florimon, Darin Mastroianni, Jamey Carroll, and Eduardo Escobar.

[BDawk]

I miss that Vance Worley already

[BeefMaster]

I will gladly give him back in order to reacquire Ben Revere.

[Turd]

Thanks beef. Sorry guys, got busy at work and will be gone until Sunday night. New goal isntonget woek on the rom done Sunday night.

[BeefMaster]

The Twins switched up their batting order, if that matters to you - they dropped Dozier to the 8 spot, so it's now
Hicks
Mauer
Willingham
Morneau
Doumit
Plouffe
Parmelee
Dozier
Florimon

[VEGAS]

Sox beat Yanks.... Great way to start the season. Only way today gets better is if the rom gets finished today. Good luck Turd. You are rounding 3rd and heading to home on this project.

[Turd]

I am. Sorry guys, it's coming.

[VEGAS]

TURD,
As you mentioned earlier I think you go with the probably line-ups once injuries are cleared up. IE Ortiz is on Red Sox Roster because he'll be back soon from DL stint but if you are making some other changes like the MIN one suggested the Red Sox could be modified to:

Ellsbury
Victorino
Pedroia
Napoli (at C)
Ortiz (at 1B)
Middlebrooks
Bradley (Jackie Bradley Jr.)
Iglesias

BN:
Salty
Drew
Gomes
Carp

But I'm also 100% cool with whatever permutation the lineup is already in. Likely its time to just publish the thing and maybe tweaks come after folks take it for a spin.

[Turd]

It's not the lineups that are holding me up. It's finalizing the hitting ratings and applying to the rom. Patience. It'll happen.

[Turd]

Christ. Tried to finish up tonight during thr brewer game and my wife kept yammering on. Ugh, so close.

[Turd]

Taking off of work on Friday. It is my hope to out the ROM to sleep.

[Turd]

I've begun my final work.  I'll post what I have today...

[Turd]

Done. Will generate the roster sheet tonight! Finally...long time comin'...
