Re: This should NEVER happen


Re: This should NEVER happen

"This should NEVER happen." So you believe that the probability of this event happening is zero. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the probability of this event happening is definitely not zero.

Re: This should NEVER happen

I have been a member here for years and seen some crazy stuff. Nothing surprises me anymore and when I go into the play-offs, all bets are off. It is a crap shoot!
I have had my share of disappointments in the play-offs. Some that just leaves me scratching my head.

Re: This should NEVER happen

A major league season consists of what, about 2400 games? That's how many games PC simulates on any given day if memory serves. So 2400 games a day, 365 days a year, let's say 15 years. That's in excess of 13 million games of baseball. So if something is "one in a million" it should, statistically speaking, have happened 13 times. Hey, I won a championship. That's one of the 13 right there. :)

Congrats on breaking your duck, Jim

Way to go Jim!

Re: This should NEVER happen

Yep, frustrating AF. I would need to. How off steam too. But the commenters are right.

Re: Re: This should NEVER happen

To be fair to OP, I don't think he meant that the situation literally should *never* happen. I think he meant that it happens more often in high leverage/playoff games than it should, in PC, because PC puts in the back of the bullpen in blowouts--without regard to whether it's regular season or a clinching game of the World Series. I know one potential improvement that's been discussed is a setting where the GM can specify whether to save the bullpen in a blowout or not, in a particular game.

I'll let OP speak for himself, but that's how I interpreted.

Re: This should NEVER happen

I think one way to save the bullpen is to have your SP pitch to the max runs allowed before being pulled and let him go to his endurance number for pitch count. If you have the time you can change that setting between games or before a playoff game.

Re: Re: This should NEVER happen

You are RIGHT, sir!

Re: This should NEVER happen

You can speak for this old OP anytime. Because RIGHT you are, sir.
