Bonderman with Milwaukee:Originally Posted by 200tang
17 - 8 32 starts 229.1 innings 3.38 ERA 70 BB 189 K 3.55 Dice and won his only start in the NLDS.
Milwaukee had been begging for pitching since I started my sim. I felt I had to give them a guy. Hosmer better hit.

RE 200: I could have used those numbers myself
May 6th 2013. Ichiro notches hit #2500 in the major leagues; a 2 - 1 sinker from Tyler Herron. He had 1278 for the Orix Blue Wave in Japan. It's possible he could end up with over 4000 hits and possibly eclipse Pete Rose's 4256.
Way to Go イチロー!!!

Hovering around .500 again. It'd be nice to go on a little run. The Dodgers and DBacks usually have the division down to a two team race by now, so it is hopeful to see them looking vulnerable. If you would have offered me being a half game in front of the DBacks on June 1st I'd have taken you up.

Second, a few guys are starting to click. Actually, everybody is starting to click with the bats. Except Pettit, who completely fell of the map.
In the minors:
22 Y/O 1B Eric Hosmer .329 18 HR 57 RBI looks like a major league baseball player among a bunch of AAAers.
24 Y/O C Devin Mesoraco .373 7 40 is putting the wood to the ball as well.
23 Y/O SS Reynaldo Navarro .318 0 36 also looks about ready for a major league job.
The pitching continues to go well. Nick Adenhart has been particularly effective, while Luke Hochevar is struggling to match last years' 4.42 ERA and 4.11 DICE.Code:2013 Pitching Team IP ERA G GS W L SV K BB R/9 Snell, Ian MEX 77.0 3.39 11 11 3 6 0 73 17 9.82 Adenhart, Nick MEX 75.1 3.11 11 11 4 3 0 39 24 10.27 Hochevar, Luke MEX 63.1 6.54 12 11 4 5 0 46 16 15.21 Swarzak, Anthony MEX 58.2 4.60 10 10 3 2 0 46 21 12.89 Marquez, Jeff MEX 39.1 6.64 10 5 0 3 0 14 6 13.73 Castillo, Fabio MEX 37.1 4.10 6 6 2 0 0 33 14 11.57 Luebke, Cory MEX 33.2 4.01 13 0 2 1 0 23 11 11.76 Zagurski, Mike MEX 27.0 7.33 26 0 3 3 0 30 15 15.33 Pena, Luis MEX 25.0 5.40 20 0 0 2 1 22 12 14.76 Fields, Joshua MEX 23.1 3.47 20 0 2 2 9 26 6 9.26 Troncoso, Ramon MEX 19.0 3.79 8 0 1 1 0 8 6 10.89 Hernandez, Fernando MEX 13.0 6.23 18 0 0 2 0 8 7 19.38
Fabio Castillo missed 3 weeks with a dislocated shoulder (no goose involved) and Jeff Marquez struggled in his stead.

I like Reynaldo as well...if he could hit we would really have something with him...maybe slide Tulo over to 2B...he just needs to hit...
I think my man crush is on Mesoraco though. He hit .380 in September last year. .370 this year in AAA. And he can D a little.

Ichiro = my man crush
Craig and Darnell are slugging it out to be the starting 3B. The AI is giving Darnell a lot of time in RF with Cousins struggling-again.
One injury to note: C Yadier Molina is going to miss 3 weeks. This gives Devin Mesoraco a chance to show off.
First, the astute readers will notice that Ian Snell is missing. That's because he was traded to the Reds for CF Robbie Grossman. Snell was 4 - 6 3.18 in 85 innings and 12 starts this year. Grossman (.365 4 HR 5 SB in AA) is a 23 year old who figures to be the starter in Mexico City pretty soon. He should have the defensive ability to handle Foro Sol and we think he can hit a little too.Code:2013 Pitching Team IP ERA G GS W L SV K BB R/9 Hochevar, Luke MEX 102.2 4.82 18 17 8 6 0 73 30 13.15 Adenhart, Nick MEX 90.1 2.69 13 13 6 3 0 43 28 10.26 Swarzak, Anthony MEX 77.2 4.17 13 13 3 5 0 62 24 12.05 Castillo, Fabio MEX 72.2 3.59 11 11 2 2 0 62 23 10.28 Luebke, Cory MEX 68.1 3.42 18 5 4 2 0 53 18 11.85 Marquez, Jeff MEX 67.1 6.15 15 9 1 7 0 36 14 12.97 Zagurski, Mike MEX 41.2 6.70 40 0 4 3 0 48 24 15.12 Pena, Luis MEX 40.0 5.18 31 0 0 2 1 36 18 14.40 Fields, Joshua MEX 36.2 3.44 33 0 2 3 14 41 11 10.31 Troncoso, Ramon MEX 27.1 4.61 12 2 1 1 0 15 10 11.85 Hernandez, Fernando MEX 21.2 5.40 29 0 1 3 0 17 9 15.78 Perry, Ryan MEX 7.1 3.68 6 0 1 1 0 9 6 15.95 Kunz, Eddie MEX 5.1 5.06 4 0 0 1 0 3 7 18.56
For future reference we turned down an offer of 3B Josh Vitters and a package from Atlanta centered on RF Jason Hayward.
Injuries have hit the pitching staff:
Nick Adenhart and Anthony Swarzak each missed a couple of weeks and Cory Luebke will miss another 4 weeks or so.
Jeff Marquez was forced back into the rotation and Ramon Troncoso had to make some starts as well. Rookie Robert Hernandez, will see his first major league action sometime in July as well...
