I now have 9 full-time batters. My starting lineup has the following average stat line...

680 PA, 36 doubles, 9 triples, 23 home runs, .324 avg, .407 obp, .545 slug ($64.3 million total salary)

What's interesting is that all my batters have very strong performance review numbers. In fact, avg & obp are higher than their real life numbers. The average per player is...

715 PA, 34 doubles, 8 triples, 18 home runs, .332 avg, .416 obp, .500 slug. (131 runs created)

So you're saying the rest of us don't have a chance.....
Lol!!
When ever I'm in a draft league with you I'm amazed at how good the players are, that are still there for you in the later rounds. FYI, you did take 2 players I wanted right before my pick. Looking forward to facing you in the division.

Actually, I don't really know how good the other teams are so I have no idea if my team will be significantly better than most of the other teams. Because I had the 13th pick overall, I didn't really get the opportunity to grab a stud starting pitcher, so I decided to get as much offense as I could while rostering low-HR pitchers. My defense is decent, but not elite (I only have two A+++ range guys plus Mantle A/A to play CF).

My general theme league strategy of rostering more switch hitters than everybody else doesn't work in this league. So, what will be the differentiating factor between teams? Offense? Pitching? Defense? Should be interesting to see how this plays out.

Interesting schwarze. I match your numbers almost exactly, though I have 11 players to your 9 totaling the same number of PA. My defense appears to be better than yours (my position players total $71m) but my pitching is significantly behind as I only have half my innings.

Looks like I can check back in the morning. Being ahead of the clock was fun while it lasted.

Got home a little while ago and everything is updated.

Not much I can do at this point. Tomorrow we will get back in the flow.

I do not have work tomorrow or Sunday so updates will be frequent.

We are on the clock!!!

1991 Mickey Tettleton C
Kris Medlen

And the wait continues…

Thankfully, calhoop moved up the schedule. We're on the clock today instead of waiting another day.

1954 Mickey Mantle
2009 Asdrubal Cabrera

We should reinstitute the rule that once the person before you picks, you’re good to go.

Agree with that

Good morning, everyone. I am going to wait until my time slot (11 am). I expect mllama54 will make his pick promptly when his pick is due between 10:30 and 11.

This will give MarlboroLigh just a little more time (30 minutes from now) to pick his second player in Round 16 before we move forward and progress as if he made his picks correctly.

Once I pick, DarthDurron can pick immediately after me. No more waiting for time slots unless another owner ahead of you has not been able to pick at all.
