kgbaseball Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I like how you have the #1 position prospect in all of baseball as your utility guy. I had a dynasty like this once, it was pretty fun. But eventually I got sick of it because I like playing with real rosters, not fantasy ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgi Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Jesus Montero will be handling the pitching staff and he is a very young talent from Venezuela. Montero has all the tools to become the next star catcher, but is very raw right now. He is 18 years old with the sky as his potential. Alex Gordon will play first base, even though he is listed as a third baseman. Gordon will have to be a leader on this team since he is one of the older guys here. Gordon is already a great power hitter and look for him to hit cleanup. Alberto Callaspo is a good little second baseman and is a lot like the guy he is waiting for in arizona, orlando hudson. He is a solid bat, good speed and good fielder. Elvis Andrus is playing short, and he is a lot like Montero, very raw. He is 19 and already is showing tools to be a great possible 5 tool player. He is a very good fielder, and is pretty fast. He needs to improve his hitter a bit, possibly batting seventh. Evan Longoria isn't as hot as Eva, but he plays at the level she acts at. He is a great third base power hitter, and you can expect Ryan Braun like numbers from him. Fernando Martinez is playing left field, and he has the most potential of anyone on this team. He is the fastest guy on it, and has an absolute cannon, Vlad Guerrero type arm. He will also become a solid power hitter down the line, being only 19. Jacoby Ellsbury is the vet of the team, being 23. He is already a great contact hitter, and is very fast. He and Martinez will give pitcher fits on the bases. He is very polished rookie, rare for this time with all the raw talent. He and Gordon are team captains. Jose Tabata is my personal favorite of the roster, and is also very raw, just 19 years old. Tabata is a 5 tool in the making player, and should have a very solid season. Justin Upton will find his way into numerous different positions this season and look for him to have a lot of at bats. He will probably play 4 to 5 games a week. Justin is a fast runner and going to be a great hitter down the line. Time to make this team and get playing!

Borgi Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Dont no why it posted funny like that?!? O well I added Joakim Soria to close instead of Daniel Bard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borgi Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Game one was against Blue Jays Hurler Roy Halladay and we won it 4 to 1 with some inconsistent offense. Fernando Martinez had a big two out hit to get us on the board, and he had a good game going 2 for 4 with a RBI. A few inning later Jose Tabata tripled down the line for a RBI to make it 2-0. Jesus Montero stepped up next and hit a 410 foot HR to bring in Tabata to make it 4-0. Phillip Hughes was dealing until the seventh when his stamina was shot and he let up a solo shot to Aaron Hill. Then he let up a base hit, but responded against his last batter with a strikeout to end his day with 7 innings pitched and had 10 k's. Roy Halladay went the distance for them, not pitching to well. Franklin Morales worked a 2 k 8th and Joakim Soria got the save in the ninth. All in all a good first win for the young boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgi Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Well, my team took it off the chin as AJ Burnett some how shut us out. We had plenty of hits but some stupid base running cost us any chance of a victory. Homer Bailey really struggled and looked his age. Michael Bowden was unable to keep it close as he got shelled. All in all it was a bad day, and game three hopefully will be much better. http://dynasties.mvpmods.com/boxscores//us...sox5x3/DET2.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgi Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 What a wild win! Jacoby Ellsbury delivered not once, but twice to win the game. First, in the top of the ninth with two outs and a 3 to 3 score, after Joakim Soria blew a save, Ellsbury had a weak ball hit up the middle to him in center. There was a man on second and he tried to score. Ellsbury fired a rocket right on the money to get him out and keep the score tied at three. Then he stepped up in the bottom of the ninth with the bases loaded and two outs and he ripped a walk off hit of the wall in right. Ellsbury was asked how he felt about this game and said "You know, our bats were alive, but we lack the power to drive guys in, so every run is needed. I felt that everyone stepped up at one time or another, I just happened to at a crucial time. My hit would mean nothing if there were no men on, and Jesus made a nice tag to block the plate on my throw. Clayton pitched a gem and it's a shame we couldn't get him the win, but at least we won the game." Jacoby has really carried this team. The players mobbed him after the hit and he got a pie in the face during the interview from prankster Alex Gordon.

Borgi Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 Jorge de la rosa's heat was to much for the youngsters to handle, as he shut them down with a complete game. The boys could only manage 5 hits, all singles. The offense has really struggled to get extra base hits thus far. Luckily the pitching has been fantastic, as Clay Bucholtz pitched a gem, but could not receive a win. He had a bad first inning, and a rough 8th, but other than that was untouchable. Justin Upton is still searching for his first hit, while someone needs a house for Jacoby Ellsbury, because he's still on fire. Jacoby told me that tomorrow's another game, and we have 150 or so more of them. He told me is isn't worried about the lack of power on the team, they can small ball there way to a championship. Jim Leyland is tearing what hair he has left out as this young team continues to make rookie mistakes. Going tommorow is youngster Dellin Betances.

Borgi Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 Just to let you all know, Just installed FRAPS to liven this up a bit, Im still a rookie so bare with me, but it should be pretty good all in all. Thanks for keeping with me if you choose to during this dynasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgi Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 The offense finally game around against Odalis Perez, as Alex Gordon ripped a big Home run. Jose Tabata also added a solo shot to give the Tigers six runs. Betances pitched a decent game, nothing special but enough for the win. Joakim Soria pitched a solid ninth to get the save. Jose Tabata goes yard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgi Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 Thanks Kazmir I will do that. The young Tigers had another 6 to 3 win against the Royals, but this one was a little more dominant. Phillip Hughes ERA is at a stellar 0.69 while Jacoby Ellsbury is at .538 avg. Ellsbury hit an 0-2 count out for his first HR, which made the captain feel very good. It was his first extra base hit of the season, he's been Mr. Singles. Fernando Martinez also had a huge game going 4 for 5 and he's flown under the radar so far having a great season. Justin Upton got his first hit, going 2 for 5 with two stolen bases, and this young team ran all over Gil Meche, stealing 5 bases. Upton has found his way into the lineup at a different position every game thus far. He told me in an exclusive interview he expects to play every position but catcher and first base this season. More reporting on this game coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgi Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 My apologies... The first six games of my dynasty have been flaky, but ive now mastered every program and this dynasty is good to go, I've got FRAPS, very helpful, got box score extractor, and got GIMP, a free photoshop. So From here on out this dynasty should be near flawless. Thanks and finally enjoy. Thanks a lot Kazmir I figured Photobucket out too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
