I have the exact same lineup... we aren't that old, most of my players are sub-30 and last year we had 138 E's, about .863 a game. So, even with the laws of small sample size 3.00 a game is ridiculous. Are we playing in the middle of a tornado? I'm officially hating this game.

My point is that ok you had 9 errors in 3 games , thats extremely unlucky but it will even out in the end.

Hope you draft well, hope the train fast enough, hope they are more lucky the the bums you already have. If I were losing like this is a higher division, then yeah... but this is against bots in D-effing 6. Seriously.

A)the game clearly states that his ratings may be more more speculation than fact and therefore the player may not be as good as he looks... B)what would be the fun of a game where a player with great ratings always played great and a player with crappy ratings always played crappy?... these kind of management games have to have some randomization to them to make it sporting... in real life baseball...sure the superstars are more often than not gonna play like superstars...but they all go through slumps as well...as people have said...your player is probably just going through a slump and it will even out by seasons end...either that or...he's not as good as his ratings would suggest and you bring in someone else to play his role...
