I'm kind of a newbie when it comes to OOTP. I just purchased OOTP16 yesterday, and played OOTP13 sparingly a few years back.

I'm currently on my first game playing as the manager and GM for the Twins. Here is how its going...

On the 4th game of the year, Mike Trout's career ended. Post-Concussion Syndrome. I was disgusted with this, even though he isn't on my team, so I changed his injury to non-career ending. What are the chances?

I've made a few moves myself, mainly looking to rid myself of nasty contracts. I enjoy taking a bottom feeder and building them through trades and homegrown players.

Currently have acquired notable players such as Kris Bryant, Nomar Mazara, Alex Gordon, and Edwin Encarnacion. The later two only because of the short term contracts they were on. I've rid myself of bad contracts like Ervin Santana, Phil Hughes, and Kurt Suzuki.

The date is June 1st, and somehow I'm 23-26. I say somehow, because my starting pitching is amazingly awful.

Rotation:
Mike Pelfrey: 3-0, 3.12 ERA
R. Nolasco: 1-3, 5.79 ERA
T. Milone: 4-4, 6.14 ERA
K. Gibson: 2-4, 6.48 ERA
B. Hand: 3-4, 6.28 ERA
-----------------
SP ERA: 6.41
BP ERA: 4.87

Bright Spots:
- I called up top prospect Byron Buxton last week after he was hitting .290 in AAA through 45 games. He is hitting .270 with 4 RBI's
- Josmil Pinto and Danny Santana are both full time starters hitting over .300

More to come..
