I will be happy to provide the schedules. I had a hard drive crash on my main PC and all was lost. I did save the schedules file to a flash drive. I have not loaded these schedules back into the...

The game is probably designed to reflect real life.

Omar Moreno was a base stealer in his day, but he was never able to steal home. He tried just twice and was thrown out both times. Stealing...

What's changing are the player "ratings".

Ratings are a result of your teams scouting. If your scouting is good/great, then your players are accurately rated. Your opponents players are...

You can edit a player (commissioner mode) and change his position. However, some of the time the player will revert back to the previous position when that season is over. So you have to change him...

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here. The date and place of birth for each player is on that individuals player page under "vitals". Are you suggesting this info should be somewhere...

Well said.

Very thorough and interesting research. Well done. I only play historical seasons and have noticed the effect you've described, but not to the extent you have demonstrated. My thought was that...

Very sorry to hear of the difficulties you have endured. Sounds like you have been through a lot. Glad that you've survived and things are a little better.

I remember you from the "old days",...

Exactly what I've been saying. The game generates its own historical schedules, and they are awful.

Absolutely. A win by default is not quite the same as winning on the field, but in any sport (or game) you get the win when your opponent is unable (or refuses) to play.

Two posts back in this thread....

"The game, as it is, will never have the actual schedules from historical seasons. The main reason is because, in years past, teams played lots and lots of...

My notes say that if you are just simming games (not playing manually), the computer rests tired players. You can change how the computer handles resting players by making an adjustment under...

OK, I see what you're asking. I don't know the answer. It might be the first version that uses actual MLB schedules. I would have no way of knowing, since I only play seasons before 1995 or so. ...

OK, I found some old notes I had made on "tired" and "sore" players. Non-pitchers, of course. I found that there are different degrees of being tired. If a player just got tired, and you don't...

No in-game injuries has been discussed for years. Its not a glitch, per se. It's just not part of the game.

I play BM 2013. I have found that I have to give a position player the day off completely for him to "recover" from his tiredness. No pinch anything. Catchers and older players are most likely to...

Good question. "Never" is the answer. The schedules in BM have always been an issue, and while they have improved they are still awful for historical play. I recently mentioned this in another...

Let me mention that some of you might find information on player development by doing a search, using key words like "minor leagues, levels, ratings", etc. Its been a while since there has been a...

I am not sure what you mean by "list". If "list" means all minor league players, all levels, then where the player is will matter. If you mean, say, you have 8 position players at a particular...

Reds player totals show 27 homers, 51 RBI, but only 35 runs scored. Who scored the other 16?

In addition to the superb performance of Haddix, the game had a bizarre ending. In the bottom of the 13'th, after 36 consecutive batters had been retired, the Braves got their first base runner when...

I have never heard of transferring players by using import/export functions. Maybe it can be done, I don't know.

If I want to move players from one team to another, I just trade them. I use the...

I play BM2013 and I get the popups for the next version as well.

I haven't bought a more recent version because I have seen no reason to. I only play historical seasons, so I don't need the...

Good to see that you still visit these lifeless forums, HGM. I thought you had likely moved on, as it seems that everyone else has. On the other hand, still no place for Tiant in your Hall? As I...

I have read several times that pushing a pitcher past his normal endurance does, in fact, increase his endurance. I experimented and found it to be true. That is how you can turn a relief pitcher...
