SIM COMPLETE - 1998 - SIM 26

Forgive us, we haven't been in the playoffs lately to really care (and I haven't had any major injuries in my other leagues to have ever faced this issue in the postseason), but what the heck is Postseason Rules and Info?

Is that ours or is that in-game?

That's the name of one of the sections on the Playoff Rosters screen. It's odd that it says I can add 3 non-eligible players, even though I have 23 guys on the playoff roster. But maybe that's simply refering to the potential number of additions.

In any event, the game isn't letting me drag and drop anyone into the Playoff Roster, so I guess I'm going into the post season shorthanded. I'm gonna' try the right click recommendation Delandis made.

EDIT: Holy crap, it worked! Thanks Big D!

[Delandis]

If you go to the individual players and right click, then add the player, you should be able to add whoever you'd like.

Playoff Roster Problem

Finished the season with a whimper, 3 - 4. At least I didn't lose another player to injury this week. Good luck to Jim and the Snappers.

PLAYOFF ROSTERS SUCK! I can only put 23 on my playoff roster due to the injuries we suffered two sims ago. "Playoff Roster Rules & Info" says I can add 3 non-eligible players to the Playoff Roster, (not sure why it's 3 instead of 2, maybe because of the three injuries?), but the game won't let me add anyone from the Active Roster because I don't have any non-eligible players that were on the active roster prior to 9/1. My bullpen, the strength of my team, is going to be under-manned. This blows.

We're going to trade our two picks for aging veterans in an ill-fated attempt to become relevant again only to ultimately guarantee our rebuild never actually ends.

The top 4 are all CF's.

Shit. I know that IRL, but I couldn't find PA in BLB on any screen, so figured they just dumbed it down for the game and made it ABs. But I finally found it by looking at his player profile on the website. That really sucks.

In game in the player profile, Batting Stats -> View -> Expanded Batting Stats: TPA = Plate Appearances. It's also a column you can add to your custom stat views.

Woodbury has a vesting option with 575 PA. Since he didn't hit that, any idea when the option will drop off?

He did hit that... PA is AB + BB

Just remember this statement next round when you try to claim that you're "still the underdog" against Virginia.

And I quote: "To be the man, you gotta beat the man."

[Clay]

Thats the great thing about being the underdog. You get to make outrageous statements like shown above.

I miss those days.

I think it's a safe bet.

95 wins is surprising. I thought we'd take a step back with Sau and Lindsey out for extended periods. Losing our best pitcher this season for the playoffs changed how I looked at this team down the stretch.

I think we're a pretty good team that is playing well at the moment, but not a great team. I'd be lying if I said we manage to get out of the first round this season. We're just another looming playoff injury away from being derailed. I think we benefitted greatly from a down Ale this year and I think the Lager guys have better teams and more dynamic stars this season.

Some guys stepped up - Durham, Alvarez, Hawkins, O'Fallon and our rotation - while others have definitely levelled off - Castor, Abe, Carbajal.

We'll see how it goes in the playoffs, but I feel like next season becomes a transition season. Some of the older guys will walk or be traded, and we'll try to get a little younger and hope it keeps us competitive and towards the top in a rebuilding Ale.

That Curtis-Martinez match-up is a tough one for us. Especially since our bullpen is notorious for blowing leads in the playoffs and imploding on itself.

Good luck to NO in round one.

Don't quote me in the open like that.

[Pat]

If he's shows as eligible, you can get him on.

You have to adjust your playoff and active roster independently and both have to be 25 of under in order to add to the Playoff.

That's probably it.
