When you figure it out, please let me know ASAP.

Hey that's my strategy! Don't copy.

[revo]

I am now officially clueless. I thought revo was either doing a full ratio tank or a career ratio tank with good BY. But now he goes and takes Drysdale (the only one who could at his best decade without a wild card, but smart to do so, I was already looking at taking him) and then takes him at 1957. At that year, he is BY poison and great for career. He must have some plan I have not fathomed yet. He has kept me guessing the whole time.

Am I crazy or are we going to totally blow by VD 6 totals?

So I think I might have committed the cardinal sin of cut/pasting on the Rounds sheet. If you do that, does it fuck up the "draft" section of the hitting tabs and fail to track correctly who's already drafted?

Yeah ... better to redownload or revert to a previous save if possible IMO.

Yeah I thought it was the career dump with good BY. I tried to do that once, if I recall, but it's very player specific. I assume someone smarter than I could pull it off but it doesn't look like that's what Revo's trying.

Like Drysdale a lot at this point. I see some other guys out there who will be great value. Wish we had some KOs

[The Feral Slasher]

I got some turds I'm going to need to pick, and lots of ground to make up in hitting. Not optimistic, but thanks !

I guess I'm an admitted turdpicker now.

[The Feral Slasher]

Feral has a sneaky good team. I had an idea to mess with him, but it makes my team worse, so I can't do it.

[DMT]

Feral has been the most disruptive to my plans, first Thome and then Stovey.

Not sure, but I had Larkin ranked a good deal higher than my own pick with whatshisface Long so I'd bet it was a good pick. Larkin gets drafted all the time - he's a lot better than scrap status.

I would imagine that johnny won't be thrilled by the pick. I think that Larkin was the last actually good hitter he could take without using his last wild card.

[Bene Futuis]

was there a better SS available? I didn’t plan this out well so I’m dealing with the scraps
