*** VD 14 Commentary Thread ***

Johnny can only take a catcher or a MI, from what I can tell.

Yes, Johnny is in his own little world of pain when it comes to his remaining hitters.

I bet I can predict all 3 of his picks, too.

One seems blatantly obvious. With Barry Larkin taken, I am not sure about the other two.

You think that's bad, look at my BY power categories.

Your pain is a little different---Johnny's hitting numbers are generally good---except for speed, which he is obviously tanking---it just going to get ugly for him. You have a condition of ugly in your stats already.

Very comforting words....

Good description of Corona Slasher work from home style

On further review, it looks a lot like your career hitting stats. Yuck!

We're more than halfway there, so I gave up a while back.

Oh, my career hitting stats are not particularly pretty right now. Then again, I still have four hitters left to most people's three; my remaining positions are CI, OF, and effectively two UT; and my remaining letters are C, W, R, L, T, and two WC. There is definitely a condition of ugly in my stats now---I just have to improve it. I hope I have left enough to do that. Then again, my targets for this were based on VD 6 results, which as others have noted, we are collectively blowing by. Well, that and a guesstimate of what OBP would be good that was clearly off by more than a little bit, lol.

I wish Johnny would give up on his window washing halfway thru and make a crappy pick.

I think your problem may end up being the decades rather than the letters/positions. 1900s/1920s/1980s aren't pretty, but you do have 00s which is better.
Looks like you are 10th out of 12 if we switch it to rate stats rather than totals, so not as ugly as it looks, you are right.
