The guys who gained the most SI were those who played sporadically or even didn't play at all. 6 of the players with most at-bats (some of which played every game without being subbed) failed to get even a single point. It's not the first time I noticed that so I'm starting to wonder now whether playing a lot during spring actually prevents players from getting their minor league training...

I have never done this well in terms of wins and losses in spring training though (not that it matters). Yeah, I saw game two, but I'd prefer to win the series versus scoring a ton of runs (though not even close to Brewnoe's number) in one game. @Brewnoe, that reminds me of my old video game baseball scores. Very crazy. @Yuri, it is more likely the guys who didn't sub out and played every game have used up all the experience they can get from spring training. Several of my older players I was trying to get a few more points on didn't gain nearly what I would have liked.

Training update today had 36 total bumps, 22 in my pitching staff (5 of which were "wasted" on fielding). The most interesting part of it, though, is that I had gains to some of my veteran position players, two of which are 30! One of which does not have a single at bat or inning played but gained a fielding point, another that played in only one game (1-2, 2B, 2BB) and gained a hitting point. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?

Brewnoe Joined: 03/25/2014 Posts: 816 Fall River Naughty Dawgs IV.5	Soooooo close ... 90 pitches (Doctor Donna meta-crisis after missing the rookie pitcher last season) My spring has been good except for Lefty Pedro missing most of it ... I may need to adjust my plans. Updated Friday, March 3 2017 @ 9:03:48 pm PST
