I was in the supermarket this morning and saw this and could not believe my eyes.

LOL!!! I like it, but J-Lo hooking up with a relatively unknown AAA pitcher? Anna Nicole I can maybe see but J-Lo?!?!?!

Hey that's why they call her J-Ho

HOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRAIN! ALL ABORT!

HA! J-Ho. But back to baseball, I think a slider is good too. Being a naturally powerful pitcher, he would have a speedier breaking ball.

It's been a slowly progressing dynasty, and now I have to freeze it for a week or two more, I'm working every day so ain't got much time for dynasties, but look out for more updates after a while.

I hope you find some time for it soon. This really is an interesting concept and I'm excited to find out what happens during his shot at AAA.

That was 4 days ago. Looks like real life has reared it's ugly head. Give him time guys, he'll be back with great stuff for us.

Wow! You got me hooked. Your dynasty kind of reminds of Derek Jeter's "The Life You Imagine" book. This also remids me of a baseball game (not MVP) where you get called up by the manager. A gem of a thread. Keep this up!

What game is that?

The game is called MLB '06: The Show, for PSP & PS2. Wish it could be for the computer, too. I think [what I'm talking about] is called Career Mode, except with this you interact with the manager, (and HE calls you up, NOT YOU during/after Spring Training, thus, you have to make the team) and can get dumped from your own team (if you talk too much, or ask for too many raises). The prices are a little high, and annoying wait times are the only issues here. I wonder how you guys would compare it to MVP...

Rivercats loose in 15th

Game ends to 51s home run

Sacramento River Cats at Las Vegas 51s : 2-3 - (No boxscore available. I got a phone call just when I finished the game and by habit clicked continue before saving the box scores, it pretty much ruined the recap since I have nothing to base it on)

We were up 2-0 in the 7th when I was called in and were doing really well, Putnam hit a solo homer, he was excited about that. I did great for two innings, striking out three of the six batters I faced, among of them was Ricky Ledee. But then in the 9th our closer messed things up, let them tie the game. The game really stretched far, and we lost, someone hit a homer, I don't remember who. I saw it coming.

We have been discussing things with out coach and I might have a chance at becoming our closer. It's not certain yet but I think I would be a good closer plus our current one hasn't performed well.

pretty good, it's a cliffhanger. However, him pitching a complete game in the minors is pretty unlikely, because they're on pitch counts. Also, to make it more realistic, when you've got a 100 heater, you usually don't develop good control until later. That could be an issue in the storyline, "the kid's got great raw stuff, but he can't control most of it".

Well at this time his fastball is the only pitch he can throw accurately, his other stuff is pretty crappy at this point. Right now I'm throwing only fastballs and cutters, occasionally change ups but his curveball is uncontrollable :lol:

Aaah, he's got a nice curve to go along with his fastball. Kind of like Tom Gordon or K-Rod.
