2022 Week 15

I can't wait to move to OOTP. This dead ball era shit is not enjoyable. I, for some ungodly reason, built my team around offense this year with just a bunch of slightly above average SPs and one Ace. Nearly every single one of my hitters are underperforming. Giancarlo Stanton has 12 homeruns at the All Star Break and did not miss any time due to injury. All my guys in the 115-125 OPS+ projection range have an OPS in the 700s or lower. Oneil Cruz was in the 500s before this last sim.

Swept BOS in a 3 game set, then the dagger hit. A 4 game sweep at the hands of the Orioles.

The good: I don't know. The All Star break is here so hopefully the squad learns how to hit again?

The bad: Everything else.

Coming up: A much needed all-star break to regroup. Then 3 in KC.

May I ask how you calculate OPS+ for your sim hitters? I would find that very useful. Thanks!
