Probably because home runs against these pitchers will not come as easy

Well if homeruns don't come easy for these guys then what does that say about guys who don't hit homeruns? Now I am no expert but I believe its harder to hit a homerun then a single.

The old saying is speed can't go into a slump. I'm not a big stolen base guy but against these pitchers the ability to take an extra base can make all the difference.

What's wrong with 3 good similar players. Charlize Theron, Sarah Underwood, and Jessica Alba are all similar (blonde, hot, skinny) and I wouldn't mind having all 3 at the same time.

The lefty pitchers in this draft will be able to take advantage of them all three in a row

So what's saying my guys cant get on base. If one of my power hitters get in a slump I have 6 other power hitters to pick him up. Just cuz he has lots of homeruns doesn't mean he strikes out a lot. Hell some of the best hitters no matter if a HR hitter or not strikeout. I just watched moneyball and Billy Beane said "no stealing" LOL

Well in the case of Reggie and Thome as Nos said they're first and second all time in Ks

Correct but I play Jeffro who doesn't have a lefty pitcher or relief pitcher (yet). When I or if I play a team with a lefty pitcher then I will switch up my lineup.

Have I mentioned I got Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio and Derek Jeter? Does that sway your vote Yankee fan/500? :D

I very well may vote for your team and have it pretty high in the rankings. My only point is you could have a more well rounded team if you didn't have all three of those guys.

I can also put 1 of them on the bench. All depends on matchups.

You mentioned a Red Sox player to try and sway a Yankees fan? Oh and Jeter is 13th on the strikeout list. Not to good for a slap hitter. :thumb:

He would have made your bullpen untouchable. I wanted him and Smoktz for the starter/longman/closer expieirence but wasn't quick enough on the draw.

First game we blew them out of the water 26-16, 10 point rule in the 4th... Second game we were the away team, scored 7 held them to 3... The held us to 1 scored 7... Down 8-10... Third inning we scored 7 they scored 7... 15-17... 4th we score 4, they score 5... Down 19-22 headed to the 5th... League rule in the 5th the 7 run rule is no longer, you have to get 3 outs last inning... We score 2 quick then 1 out... Bases loaded Dash pops out, 2 outs... Kid gets a single but we score 2, boys really and we score 10 in the inning... We're up now 29-22... First hitter shot to SS, Dylan guns him out at 1st... Next batter shot to 2nd Dash guns him at 1st... Next hitter hits to the pitcher but makes it to first... Next batter smokes it to 3rd, Dougie scoops it up throws it to Dash! AND WE'RE HEADED TO STATE!!!
