his reason he gave isnt really strategic to win games though. Just milking points by getting him up as many times as possible, grabbing the leadoff the game with an HR 20 PP score, DH for not needing to rest, and setting his whole lineup just to feed a few baserunners for RBIs.

Didnt show his pitching staff or the rest of the team, but it must be awful.

He had Kiner alone racking him up >10K points/season for like 5 seasons. If you cant climb out of rookie with that funds (plus whatever earned through entry pool, other achievos, and having a Diamond SE Kiner himself).... you are purposely holding back.

Im guessing he is laying way off the accelerator, building points (in the video he has like 85K), maybe even hiding players he buys.... then at some point, turn on the juice and pulverize the lower leagues in a 3-4-year succession.

Im not sure what to think of it. It doesnt affect me. It just feels like exploiting the points system and rookie league a bit. But it also seems smart. He also is nice enough to make a good video of it and explain the strategy for others to try.

I guess it goes to show there are many ways to go about things in the PT 21 universe.
