WLK =
BUMS = Milk, Ritz, Nos

 

[MilkSpiller22]

tough matchup again, Both have great yankee catchers, so it is tough...

But i like Bums rotation and Bullpen more, so i think i will take his team!!!

 

[Ritzarmy]

I like bums team to win 4-3 in a 7 game series. Bums should be disqualified for listing nicknames next to players

 

[Nosferatu]

I like just about everything about WLK's team I just like Bums a little more although I desperately want to vote for WLK because Bums rotation is righty only I just can't I think he is slightly better everywhere. It pains me to vote against Mickey but I gotta go Bums here.

 

[da55bums]

The 1st team other than my own to put numbers to was WLKs and this was the question posed about. The numbers I used had us even on lineup, wlk better rotation but 2 sps just scored higher while 3 sps didn't, I won bullpen and bench was a push.

It was extremely close, but I just edged him.

 

[Pack 500]

WLK has too many awesome Yankees to go against

 

[wlk3]

I got me!!!

 

[UK Cowboy]

This is such a close matchup, both guys did a great job. Hate to pick a winner. I think Bums has a little more talented team, but in fairness, I always go off who I think wins a 7 game series. Bums doesn't have a lefty starter in the rotation, and WLK has 6 left handed hitters. WLK in 7

[Gold Rush 86]

I'm going with WLK for the same reason no left handed pitchers in Bums rotation. I feel WLK has the better rotation while the lineup is pretty even. Bullpen I have Bums and bench is pretty even.

 

[Nosferatu]

This one is a tie... I will have to look at the rankings...

 

[Ritzarmy]

Well what did you figure out?

 

[Nosferatu]

I didn't, I left the scores at work I ill look at ll the PM's for rankings here ina minute. I must say I love how into this you are when you win, if I had beaten you, you'd be nowhere to be found...

I like how you bitch more when you get eliminated in the first round when was the last time the Great all mighty Nos got a first round boot? It's been awhile.

[Nosferatu]

Golly I didn't bitch that much, I've kinda come to accept the fact i'll never win a baseball draft...

Final Rankings

WLK - 40
Bums - 42

WLK moves on...

 

[wlk3]

Shit!

Good job Bums, every time I looked up we skipped you and you still came out with a beast! But now, I must dance!
