      With four needed, and at least 26 coming from the Q-U-I cohort, there is a great sense of urgency there.

      OTOH, I’m a little surprised at some of the franchise heavy picks. With 10 being able to be eliminated, some could be safely left out without much pain.

        QUIZ + Catcher + franchise + no era restrictions, can't imagine how he'd be late round with those specs unless you just think everyone else should leave all the good options for you for later.

            There are era restrictions.

              You misunderstood - Iannetta doesn't fall into era restrictions.

                No stats? But then again, he definitely fits with all the other QUIZ players taken now, so I guess I should have figured.

                  Yes, the restricting of the Contemporary hitter category does create some weird outcomes, like Ianetta.

                    Ah right.

                    • Almost picked Jennings a while back before I even thought about Honus. Great pick.

                        He was my super secret player from like 4 rounds ago. I now have 3 deadball players and my entire MI filled but damn Jennings was just out there forever and ever and ever.

                          • Jennings was eligible as a Tiger despite only 9 plate appearances for Detroit. For perspective, Piazza made 19 plate appearances for the Marlins.

                              If it helps, think of it similar to how you'd bump multi-eligible players in yearly fantasy. The numbers in this case make the pick work objectively as well if you run them (sounds like you aren't).

                                That's pretty nuts. I think the biggest anomaly so far.
