Thoughts on Miller being dropped from the closers position? Wouldn't you want Chapman to pitch in the critical 7th and 8th more?

I don't like how RP are used in general.   With Miller, Betances and Chapman, they have lots of flexibility for the 7th, 8th, 9th.   They should use the best pitcher for the specific situation every time with no regards to saves.

how awesome is it when an HBD owner leaves a 1st round draft pick at LowA for 3 straight seasons and he retires?

Doesn't look like that big of a loss.   Of course, the fact that he forgot him in LoA probably means he wasn't developed all that well.

What ever happened to jtpsops?

What's sdedalus doing these days?

Who was the best pure hitter in baseball history?

jtpops died of stupidity.   Not the first case in history but one of the most monumental.

sded is still working the same job.   Recent photo:



I'd probably take Boggs for players I've seen.    Hard to say historically but you probably wouldn't be wrong to say Cobb.

****.  Forgot about Tony Gwynn.   Him or Boggs.  Very similar guys but I saw more of Boggs.

I'm almost positive the thread name isn't "ASK THE MIKET23 HBD-RELATED QUESTIONS ONLY THREAD, PT6". 

That doesn't really answer my question, does it?

In a way, yes.  Trump/Hillary have nothing to do with HBD if you need me to be more clear. 

Would you start  Player Profile: Aubrey Rubel - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports at 98% in a Playoff Game, or would you bump him back for a 100%  Player Profile: Nate Romano - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports or  Player Profile: Sammy Santana - Hardball Dynasty Baseball | WhatIfSports?

If bad_luck was a member of the Village People, who would he be?

Unless it's an elimination game, for me, or the last game of the season, I never use anyone at less than 100%.   Not because I think the production between 98 and 100 is all that different but because I think fatigue is worse for the potential next outing.    As for Romano or Santana, both are RH so I'd just go by which one is more effective.

He's gotta be the biker.

Raiders to San Antonio? Your thoughts?

I don't think so.  They need to get a stadium deal done and stay in Oakland.   I was not fond of the Los Angeles Raiders era.

Has the Oakland Raiders era been so much better?
