2022 Week 07

I was no-hit by Arizona for the second time in two years. At least this time I didn't lose 23-0.

Really bad week for my hitters. 143/204/224 on the week. 81k in 210ab.

In the one season I spent in an OOTP league this is what the injuries were like. Constant but the other thing with OOTP is there were between 2-5 season ending injuries per team. Usually pitchers but position players as well.

I wonder if you can turn off season ending injuries?

That's pretty wild. I don't think we have season-ending injuries in DMB.

If OOTP is like the OOTP Go! game I have on my phone, you can set the injury severity. I have mine set one notch below the default, and it works well.

I had to reduce it a notch, because there were so many injuries that I couldn't even sim a full week without having to move guys to/from the DL.

Swept Detroit, before losing 2 of 3 in Baltimore, still waiting for that big breakout week, but I'll take it.

The good: Ronald Acuna Jr. hit 4 HR this week, and Alex Wood pitched an absolute gem.

The bad: Outside of Acuna's power, we hit like turds.

Coming up: 2 vs. MIA and 4 vs. NYY, all at the Trop
