			<link>http://dmbforum.yuku.com/topic/6588/t/Things-wrong-with-DMB.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Let me preface this by saying I am so angry and disgusted right now, having just lost a playoff series, due to one of the big things I think is wrong with DMB.
<br>
<br>
1) That first thing is the so-called &quot;pitching around&quot;.  WAY too many times, this results in what seem like normal at bats.  And, this is how I just
lost.  Pitching around does not mean getting a 2-2 count and grooving a pitch that results in a line drive 1b to LF.  Pitching around is supposed to be a walk,
or the... ]]></description>

			<link>http://dmbforum.yuku.com/topic/6582/t/Historical-Ballparks.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Does anyone who worked on the beta test, or Luke or David know if the Historical Ballpark disk that DMB issued a few years ago will work in v10? This makes a
massive difference as to whether I buy v10 or not. The reason being I have set all the players in my Franchise disk to seasons and ballparks using the
historical ballparks disk. And I don&#39;t want to see a lot of time and effort go to waste if it won&#39;t work.

			<description><![CDATA[ I want to change some fielding ratings - range, error rate, and Throwing Arm for OF &amp; Catchers. My question is, just by changing the ratings Ex: Av to Vg -
will this make the player automatically have more range or if throwing arm, better chance of throwing out runners during the course of season? Also, if I lower
error rate Ex: 125 to 90 - will this theoretically lower the number of errors? Is this all I have to do??? Also, taking a step further, would this same logic
apply to bunting,... ]]></description>

Also, can anyone tell me how I change my posting name here?  Love to know how it went from billybgame to what it is, but mainly I&#39;d love to know how to

seasons are already upgraded Classic seasons, having had game-by-game lineups and real-life transactions added to them. Now, we are making them full Deluxe
seasons, adding left-right splits, re-evaluating player ratings and updating manager profiles. We plan to have the first one ready to release in December,

<br>
AFTER I started my 1974 replay playing out all games, I got answers on this forum to some questions I had posed. Those answers exposed an unwelcome consequence
for a setup choice I had made, namely, to have box scores saved in newspaper format. I made this choice because newspaper format is more attractive and easier
to read at a glance. But my choice had a consequence I didn&#39;t yet understand,... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Just a note for users who have Linux.  I have had problems running DMB under Wine.  But, my latest distribution was Wine v 1.1.28.  I reinstalled DMB 9c and so
far everything is working without any tweaks (other than installing ms true type core fonts).  I have not used any Windows DLLs unless another app installed
some, but definitely no copying from a WIndows install - this was a clean Wine install.  I have not tested all features, but everything I have tried has
worked.  This includes:... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Would really like to be able to play a given player at positions he has played in previous seasons as well as the current season. I created a fantasy draft
league several years ago, but am at the mercy of decisions made by MLB teams regarding individual players&#39; fielding positions. This is very frustrating
when each season begins because an individual player may suddenly be &quot;out of position&quot; at an outfield position he has played most of his career. Or I
encounter a utility guy,... ]]></description>

When you trade players, there seems to be no rhyme or reason of where those players appear in the &#39;in game roster&quot; selection screen.

(I delete the team specific versions of real life traded players and the players I trade truly change teams)

on which of the three CFers I like best.

<br>
Colby Rasmus
<br>
Dexter Fowler
<br>
Andrew McCutchen

Does anyone have a strong opinion? I&#39;ve liked all three of them best at some point this year. I&#39;m leaning towards Rasmus right now.
