No I haven't yet. We do have 2.5 weeks till we start but I would like to get everyone signed up now so we don't have to scramble for guys late November.

Skinsdad has agreed to be the permenant Mr. Tie Breaker for all the drafts we do.

I'll try again... But I want to be clear with the evaluations.

We are judging by peak years (best seasons) and not total career, correct?

In the last baseball draft, I made the mistake of drafting the playeres with the best careers and missed a few players that had a few good seasons...

Correct basing them on their prime years.

You will draft a team of players who HAD TO HAVE PLAYED during the 1990 season.


Meaning at least 1 at bat or 1/3 inning pitched


We will draft a team consisting of.


1 - Catcher
1 - 1st Baseman
1 - 2nd Baseman
1 - Shortstop
1 - 3rd Baseman
1 - Rightfielder
1 - Centerfielder
1 - Leftfielder
1 - Designated Hitter
5 - Utility Players (Position Players)
5 - Starting Pitchers
6 - Relief Pitchers


TOTAL = 25

Players will be judged on their Prime years.

I hope we can have some fun with this one, I find with the baseball drafts we do people bring out the nerd stats to try and prove who's best, I feel this takes away from the fun of doing these drafts.


We will again get to list THREE stats when we post our teams and it would be cool if they were things like OBP, HR's and Stolen Bases or Wins ERA and Strikeouts... NOT WAR, RAA or Adjusted OPS.


Just my 2 cents...

Or RISP with two outs in the 7th, 8th, or 9th with a 0-2 or 1-2 count

I wanted to do 1955

 

[Ritzarmy]

I wanted to do 1955

That would have been to tough for the younger generation.

There's this cool new invention called the internet, you can find almost anything on it, look into that younger generation.

1955 is way before my time as well and I would love to do one of those drafts in the future.
