Never played the game. Only watched a parts of the game when switching channels or on sports news. I need advice on the following with reference to my team: 1. Transfers: Which players should i remove from my team and what players should i get from free agents or even promote from Minors. 2. Lineup - Given my players what would my best line up look like. 3. Finances. I have about $66m and would need advice on how to spend the money more wisely be it on players, facilities etc. 4. Stadium. What should I go for with regards to grass, turf etc. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Updated Wednesday, June 5 2013 @ 8:21:10 am PDT

Pablo Clemente seems to be struggling in the closing position, too, so I would say remove him from that role. You can try Ernesto Aguilar as your closer.

Game manual is your friend. 3.Ask more specific questions. You’ll get more and better help that way. Updated Wednesday, June 5 2013 @ 9:37:46 am PDT
