dOh coming soon?

 

[Soonerfan09]

Save us @doh

 

[Orlando]

in the draft.

I’m simming now

 

[Mr. Radpants]

The Os, YOs, and DOHs

 

[Karl Hungus]

Oh wtf, Andres suffered a setback on the day he was supposed to return? These injuries are bullshit.

How many players have had the BUGS nickname?

Also do they fix injuries in 19? That would be reason to upgrade

 

[Yankee151]

Probably just add more early retirement storylines

 

[Orlando]

How do you fix something that isn’t broken?

 

[Karl Hungus]

Callum Seal was due to come back this week, too, but once I get into the game I see that he's "still suffering from a strained oblique, and that right now it's unclear when a full recovery can be expected"

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Totally normal, works fine in PvE carebear offline historical leagues

 

[Yankee151]

The diagnostics wing of orthopedics has declined significantly in the 2070s

 

[Karl Hungus]

Not sure I'll be able to field a full team for much longer at this rate.



Hahahaha, and the guy I was going to bring up from AAA so Mauro could rest his ankle for a week, he got hurt this sim. Yesssssssssss

 

[doh]

Injuries do seem a little worse this year. I've had 3/5 of my starting rotation hurt at some point and 10 minor leaguers hurt currently (with way more than that earlier this year).

 

[Soonerfan09]

This has been one of my better seasons as far as injuries go. I’m sure my whole team will die the week before the playoffs start.

 

[Orlando]

They aren’t any worse in general. A couple teams get killed every year. Luck of the draw.

 

[NML]

Yep - I had 6+ out all of last season, pretty much injury free so far this year (knock on wood)

 

[Travis7401]

My team injury free but playing like shit!

 

[Mr. Radpants]

My team injury free but playing like shit!

MAKE A DEAL

 

[Orlando]

You’ll got an extra day to make ur deals

 

[Yankee151]

Prolly gon sim tomorrow morning before I go watch the games unless someone desperately needs more time in the middle of August, after that will return to irregularly scheduled evening sims

 

[Yankee151]

Actually nevermind, that's a dumb idea

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Guess JD didn't want to MAKE A DEAL

 

[doh]

save us @anyone

 

[Soonerfan09]

Guess JD didn't want to MAKE A DEAL

Prolly cause you don’t have any pieces.

 

[Yankee151]

save us @anyone

simming in 2

 

[doh]

minutes? hours? Days? Weeks?

 

[Yankee151]

I'll leave that up to speculation

 

[Mr. Radpants]

The website doesn't seem to be updated

 

[Yankee151]

We must still be in speculation land then

 

[Yankee151]

This season is setting up perfect for Tony to fail upwards into the 4th spot in the TL (which of course will lead to SHIP #3)

 

[Karl Hungus]

Fuck off.

 

[Orlando]

At least Lu is killin it! I saw you extended him too.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

What arr injuries set to? Low or osick?

 

[Orlando]

Lower than low

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Arr, lol. @key west

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Moar sims!

 

[Yankee151]

simming now

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Amicis has been DTD since 8/3 and Eyup has been DTD since 7/19. Unknown recovery time. I mean what are with these injuries? I stuck them on the bench and forgot about it, I didn't realize it had been so long. Do you have to DL after a week or so?

This game sucks now.

I always DL guys with unknown injury time and within a week or two I’m given the diagnosis.

We shoulda went to 19 when it was on sale. It might still be...

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Do they have to be on the DL for the trainers to give them an icebath? DTD takes weeks to diagnose? Indy devs, man

I’m just telling you what works for me. Also, make sure to check the box in the player strategy that prevents them from playing with a DTD injury.

 

[Orlando]

Aren’t the DTD injuries diagnosed they just don’t have a clear recovery time?

 

[Mr. Radpants]

 

[Orlando]

Is that a yes?

 

[Soonerfan09]

Is that a yes?

I believe so. Looking at Dublin's roster, Amicis and Makal both have unknown recovery times, but their injuries are listed. Amicis has back stiffness that has had him DTD since August 2nd, and Makal has had wrist soreness since July 19th. I guess I don't see what's so unrealistic about DTD injuries. They can both still play, and have, just at a slightly lower level. I feel that these injuries occur in real life, especially over the course of 162 games. Even more so when you force them to play through the injuries instead of resting them.

 

[Orlando]

Agree with you. I also see how they are an annoyance in online leagues simming a week at a time.

I can definitely see how some owners are annoyed by it, especially when they are hit hard like Karl and Rad, I just don't see it as being a problem with the game itself.

 

[doh]

Does not having personnel effect injuries?

 

[Orlando]

No
