I actually thought about that despite only having a 25 man roster in September. I will probably put him in the pen for the last few weeks and start him once.

good deal..can't wait to see that...you never know.one of your starters might get hurt , and you need a fill-in, or you might just get a trade oppurtunity and get rid of him at the deadline, which i wouldn'tprefer,but hey..it makes things interesting when you got good prospects.

Okay, my computer was being uncool and while I did my write-up last night, my computer froze. And of course, I didn't save my game yet. I had to turn it off and now I have to replay opening day. I am in the middle of the game right now (and I like the results of this game better than yesterday's lol) and should have it up today.

I finished the Yankees-Angels game a little bit ago, I will put it up tomorrow around noon, stay tuned...

EDIT: Sorry guys, I had family from Flordia come by suprise, they will be here today too. And things might go even slower, school is starting next week and since it's the year colleges look at my grades, I have to severely limit playing MVP for a while.

OK, I was moving some dynasty save files around in the My Documents folder, and for some reason my Yankee dynasty was kidnapped. Until it is returned, this dynasty is through. Sorry guys. I have bad luck, don't I?

Guys, I found my dynasty file (i accidentally moved it into the wrong place), but I am gonna do something different with this. I am gonna sim through the rest of the season, and restart the dynasty in 2007. It will be much more interesting, I will be shaking up the team a little bit since there are a lot of free agents and the rotation will look a little different. Do you guys believe in this idea?

I have simmed up to September, and the Yankees are owning. They are like a game away from clinching, and Jeter is a leading MVP candidate. I will post a season review sometime before tomorrow, including playoffs. I will start a "new dynasty" beginning with the offseason moves I will make. It will be more interactive with you guys, and I am gonna ditch the MLB format becaue it takes too much time and I am gonna try a new style.

*Inserts some form of bad luck*

My computer froze during game 2, and I never saved my game after Game 1, so it looks like I will have to replay both games tomorrow after school.
