MikeLowell Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 I've been getting back into MVP 2005 and recently took over the Rockies in hopes of turning them around. Check out this starting rotation I was able to put together(I sim the games by the way)... Hopefully in a couple of years this rotation will be dominant eventhough they are in Denver.... 1. Oliver Perez 2. Scott Kazmir 3. Jeff Francis 4. Edwin Jackson 5. Chin-Hui Tsao Obviously we blow this season.. I'm hoping to pick up a couple of young bats during the offseason.

BIG Z Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Yeah,i had a feeling you were losing money like crazy,i've been very succesful in owner mode,i had the D-Backs and i got up to 11 million bucks(and i wasted a hella lot of money after i earned all that)..but w.e the team doesn't matter..look the first season don't buy nothing at all bro,and try trading Wilson and Johnson(to much $$) and any other player that cost alot,if you can get someone cheaper that performs the same or a little worse do it,it'll pay off then you can get those big free agent players..From their on you can dominate,have fun lol and goodluck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just traded Jeff Francis, Preston Wilson, and Charles Johnson to the Twins for Mauer and Morneau.. Cleared a crapload of cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 I chose one that I play all the games and one where I simulate and never play a game complete owner mode. My team just won 117 games in their 8th season(The Dodgers). I've won 5 of the 8 world series. My player pay roll is 91 million. I've just completed buying everything their is too buy which you gets you a small easter egg. So I currently have 5 million in the bank. That'll change now that I don't have to buy anything new.

Michael Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 I turned budget off. I couldn't re-sign almost anyone after the season. Also - w/ fair trade on, I traded Al Leiter and Guillermo Mota to the Nationals for Livan Hernandez..Mota had 3 blown saves in 3 attempts to why not? I'm undefeated right now, and I brought up Juan Sanchez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
