I have never played in a league over $80.My Question is pitching like twice as important @ $160.Or does it not matter as much seeing as there is some much cash.That you can pick the greats hitters of all time??And a pitcher you would use at $80 would be about the same.Or is this where all the $20mil pitchers come into play.

Pitching matters a lot. You need a very strong staff to face a bunch of .370+ hitters. However, at $160M and above, it's easy to build a really good pitching staff. The hard part is figuring out how different kinds of hitters, pitchers, and defense perform, and then putting them together to make a winning team.

Depends on what your definition of "getting shelled" is. It's possible to to have a team ERA under 5 if those leagues.

WJ frequently gets rocked in these leagues due to HR. Take low HR/9 and low BB guys....Joss/Maddux, etc. Pete Alexander, Ed Walsh. BP has to have Gagne, and of course Kelly Wunsch....ooops, I slipped that one in.
