i could had waited on sandberg but he was the only one I knew to take for sure - I know I have no chance as only crap pitchers and 1 more hitter to take. but considering the time I took to look at spreadsheets not to unhappy with my performance. did better in decades this time then last. still dont have a good handle on it

Yeah, sometimes it's best to pick a sure-thing if you aren't sure about your other options ... quite often actually.

Sheet will need a minor fix, for total player count of three teams (it is used in validation)

Effects the last three used team tabs (DMT, ContJ, Feral)
Cell:B69
Current Formula: =COUNT(I18:I27,I52:I66)
Update to: =COUNT(I18:I29,I52:I66)

Arrieta is interesting.....I had his 2015 season as the 89th best season of all time, but 13th among non-deadball starting pitchers.

Thank you sir!

It needed changing on all the team pages.

Fixed

5 earned runs in 74 IP ... that much have been one crazy season.

[heyelander]

up for an 8am east coast conference call, so early pick for you all!

[Long John]

I know it's my pick. I've got to run around for a bit. Pick up by lunch-ish, I hope.

[Long John]

repeat until bleeding.

This draft went so much better in my head. I really need to figure out what the fuck I'm doing wrong so I can be more competitive.

So, what are we doing for the next Vintage Draft?

I personally don't think we can realistically do a "left over" draft ... which was suggested earlier. Thin pickings left. But I guess that is still on the cards, so that's still a maybe.

Assuming we don't want to repeat these last 2 drafts ... some other options:

- Franchise Draft ... they were fun (if we can find the old Franchise rules)

- We were doing period drafts last time around ... we did the vintage era (up to 1920) and the middle era (1920 - 1980 I think) ... but we never finished this sequence by doing a "Modern Era" draft

- Combo draft ... Letters and Decades ... not sure it would be wise to do a combo draft with Franchises until we have done a straight up Franchise draft.

- Also remember that we have never done the mother of all drafts - the Letter, Decade and Franchise combo draft ... maybe this time we can build up to that?

[TS Garp]

Don't think I had joined up when you guys did Franchise Drafts -- how did that work? One player from each franchise?

[Long John]

I vote to do the modern era draft next.

[DMT]

I thought the franchise draft was fun, and it would be a nice set-up for the super duper triple-decker.
