Looking Towards The Youth: A Devil Rays Dynasty

Hey this is my first dynasty that I have posted here. I will be trying to turn the Devil Rays’ seasons around and try and bring a championship to the fans of Tampa. Because of the depth of the D-Rays minor league system I will be looking towards giving a lot of the Minor leaguers playing time if the starters don’t pan out. As far as the format of this dynasty I will do my best to keep it easy to understand and still enjoyable. Also if anyone has any suggestions on how to improve my dynasty format wise or management wise it would be appreciated.

Game Settings:

Version:	PC using EA Patch #3 and MVP: 06 Mod


Difficulty:	MVP


Sliders:		None


Datafile:	MD's Datafile v3.1


Rosters:	 	Ultimate Rosters V6.2


Progression: 	Bill's Progression Fix v3, darkenigma510's Free Agency Mod


Other:	   	Strike Zone ON / Hot Colds ON / Pitch Cursor ON / Fielding MVP / Fair Trades ON

Team Preview for my 25 man roster, lineups, rotation, and Game 1’s Pregame Report will be posted shortly.

Scouting:

Pitching wise this team needs some help, but offensively they have one of the best lineups in the league. So we need to take advantage of their pitching staff and work the pitchers into giving up runs early. Kazmir will also have to be at the top of his game to stop this lineup.

Game 1 Starters

Scouting:

Pitching wise this team is a power house, but offensively they have nothing to be proud of just pitch around their big hitters like Glaus, Hillenbrand and Wells an the victory should be ours.

Breaking News

Due to the lack of depth in my bullpen I have signed Antonio Osuna to a 2 year contract @ 1.30 Million per year.

Because of this Antonio Osuna has been called up from the minors and Ty Wiggington has been sent to AAA.

Osuna will now be the D-Rays closer and Travis Harper will now be the setup man.
