Mav3rek Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Nice job. Gracie hasn't turned the record around, but the hitting has seen some steady improvements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALBIDNIS Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hey Jr. Firts of all nice interview. Where are you getting those basball tonight images from. I was looking all over the web for something like that. (The John Kruk image) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeRudi26 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 Nice job. Gracie hasn't turned the record around, but the hitting has seen some steady improvements. You're right, Mav. They way the team has been playing, it almost 'feels' like .500 ball, when in fact I'm 6 games over. Not bad, not great, but with some patience and solidifying that bottom part of the lineup, the Cubbies could be in good shape in the next month.

JoeRudi26 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 That is a nice lead-in to the interview. Very nicely done. Thanks, V. I actually heard (in the early 90's) that Kruk actually gave up his number for a case of beer. Don't remember who it was that came into Philly and wanted it, but Kruk was making the comment that guys would pay thousands of dollars to teammates to get their old number back. When writing the interviews, I try to imagine their personalities and what the content of the conversation might be. Though he got a ring and swung a big stick for a couple of years, Kruk reminds me of a beer drinking soft ball player. Grace has had more success, but he's about on the same level, very outspoken, but not overwhelming. I still can't believe I said Cliff Lee. I guess I'll blame it on Kruk. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably somewhere in between, ALB. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong, but that Kruk image looks like it could be the product of Photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiCubs16 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Where did you get that MVP Edit from, it looks different from the one I have, so I'm having some difficulties creating Kyler Burke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be in the downloads section, ChiCubs16. Version 1.0 if I'm not mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeRudi26 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 Tough loss JR. Ouch. :headache: Another 1-runner. Fogg was all over the place. He walked 7 batters, and STILL I couldn't get a pitch to drive. I don't think he ever threw one over the middle of the plate. Frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philliesphan18 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Tough loss is right! Question - Can I see what Team a player is on in MVP Editor? AND do you use MVP Editor to do your transactions or do you just turn off fair trades? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND do you use MVP Editor to do your transactions or do you just turn off fair trades? Thanks I don't think you can actually see what team a player is on, Phils. But to answer your second question, I turn off trades completely and use the Team Changer in the editor to tweak my rosters. Change teams, make necessary adjustments, change back to the Cubbies. If it's a straight up trade, I just trade them within the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
