that's why i'm #1...

This is true. A team with a lot of over-achieving players should be #1. Now if your team can bat .240 and still go 8-3 against some of the best in the division by getting the right hit, the right steal, the right groundball, and the right sacrifice fly to win the game by 1, then that's just a good team.

That is luckier than Larry Boy.

Me and you Koya 3 coming up, you'll see both of my lefties(Doc White and Vida Blue) then Palmer.

Works just fine for me. Walking right into my trap. Palmer might give up 4 HRs to RF in ebbets.

 

[Koya]

Quantrill shouldn't have even been drafted in an alltime MLB draft.

why?as far as relievers go he's pretty good...and ya'll are just jealous you didn't pick him first...

they are only jealous that their "ok" to "not so good" picks are not performing better than some of the all time greats of the game.

STOP PUMPING UP PAUL QUANTRILL!!!!!

YOU HAVE SMOLTZ/QUANTRILL AND THEY'RE UNTOUCHABLE. I HAVE ECK/FINGERS AND THEY CAN'T GET AN OUT. WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE LARRY? STOP GLOATING LIKE YOU KNEW WHAT YOU WERE DOING!! YOU'RE STARTING TO SOUND LIKE CAPELLA.

I agreed with everything until your last line.Larry made some horrible, absolutely gut-busting laughable choices, and is somehow getting ahead in this thing due to the one-year only statistical nature of it.

 

[Capella]

And yes larry, there are 48 better relief pitchers all-time than Paul ####ing Quantrill, but going into it with you is hardly worth the time.This draft could have gone 200 rounds and Paul Quantrill/Mike Myers would have had no business being selected.

He's like drafting Fred Hoiberg in the alltime NBA draft because he can hit three's off the bench. The role isn't the point. The point is that HE'S NOT AN ALL TIME GREAT.

Nipsey -I did know what I was doing...

I picked Quantrill because his top seasons are INCREDIBLE... he's never been a starter and he has a career adjusted ERA of 128, his high seasons in adjusted ERA are 238, 231, 193, 180, 156, and 3 in the 140s...

Fingers' high seasons: 332 (crazy-incredible), 196, 185, 146, 2 in the 130s, 3 in the 120s, 3 in the 110s...

Ecks' high seasons: 606, 237, 196, 148, 146, 4 in the 130s, 2 in the 120s...

Quantrill has 4 seasons at 180+, Eck & Fingers only have 3...

Quantrill is downgraded according to you guys because he isn't ancient, he actually compares relatively well to Eck and Fingers (except for those crazy sick seasons that Eck (606???) and Fingers (332?) had...)

Quantrill is one of the better pitchers who's first name starts with Q. I'd rank him just behind Quiz.

like I said...name 48 relief pitchers who, since this draft is 1995 or earlier, pitched pre-1995 and are better than Quantrill and I'll show you why Quantrill is AT LEAST as good as they are...

I already did it with Eck and Fingers, teh top two ever, and showed how Quantrill should be about on par with them, and is statistically outside of 1 crazy season as good if not better than they are...

heck, with Eck and Fingers, if you take thier sick one season out of the equation, Quantrill is actually BETTER than they are career wise...

He's about as situational a player as you can find in MLB history. Don't even compare him to Eck and Fingers. Quantrill can't carry their jocks.

Shame on you Larry.If Eck and Fingers don't measure up to Quantrill, then why are both in the HOF? And why won't Quantrill get even a mention? You drafted a middle reliever who had a strange, one year, statistical advantage on some of the closers drafted, that's all you did. And now your touting him as one of the 40 best relievers of ALL-TIME. Just zip it already, you're embarrassing yourself and making us all very, very ashamed to have taken part in this.

Give me a ####ing break. He pitches the 7th or 8th inning for awesome teams, hardly EVER has to pitch with men on base and if he does f'up who rescues him? The closer.

Quantrill has 4 seasons at 180+, Eck & Fingers only have 3...

Quantrill is downgraded according to you guys because he isn't ancient, he actually compares relatively well to Eck and Fingers (except for those crazy sick seasons that Eck (606???) and Fingers (332?) had...)

Shame on you Larry.If Eck and Fingers don't measure up to Quantrill, then why are both in the HOF? And why won't Quantrill get even a mention? You drafted a middle reliever who had a strange, one year, statistical advantage on some of the closers drafted, that's all you did. And now your touting him as one of the 40 best relievers of ALL-TIME. Just zip it already, you're embarrassing yourself and making us all very, very ashamed to have taken part in this.

Amazing, you're all ashamed and it's not even because of Funkley or Bogart.

And yes larry, there are 48 better relief pitchers all-time than Paul ####ing Quantrill, but going into it with you is hardly worth the time.

This draft could have gone 200 rounds and Paul Quantrill/Mike Myers would have had no business being selected.

name them...

are you kidding?there's 20-30 in the game TODAY who are better, if not more.

like I said...name 48 relief pitchers who, since this draft is 1995 or earlier, pitched pre-1995 and are better than Quantrill and I'll show you why Quantrill is AT LEAST as good as they are...

I already did it with Eck and Fingers, teh top two ever, and showed how Quantrill should be about on par with them, and is statistically outside of 1 crazy season as good if not better than they are...

heck, with Eck and Fingers, if you take thier sick one season out of the equation, Quantrill is actually BETTER than they are career wise...

OH NO!

larry advocating Quantrill is a top-48 pitcher of all-time certainly doesn't lend much cred to this thing.Him saying he is better than Fingers or Eck makes us all look like a clown show.#### LARRY, NOBODY IN BASEBALL, NOT EVEN PAUL QUANTRILL OR HIS MOM TAKES HIM AS ONE OF THE 50 GREATEST RELIEF PITCHERS EVER

 

[Nipsey]

Smoltz hasn't given up a run yet. WTF??!! Has anyone checked Larry's roster to make sure he's using the third best years? Something isn't right here.....

 

[Capella]

btw, I just larry in extras.Nipsey avoided a sweep by the dummy team and is still in second place.Just like I said he would be.

I'm serious about this....can we get a verification here please? Smoltz not giving up a run to the best hitters of all-time stinks of something....

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: I can't even argue with this stupidity. Sorry. If you're willing to say Paul Quantrill was as good as Rollie Fingers or Eck, based on adjusted ERA and nothing else, I have nothing for you. You're not worth my time.

I didn't say he was better, I said statistically you could say he was...all I'm saying is that they are comparable, and Quantrill, statistically, does belong in this...

he just gets no respect because: a) he isn't even a closer and b) he isn't a starter and c) he is a modern player...

STOP PUMPING UP PAUL QUANTRILL!!!!!

THE GUY HAS NO PLACE IN THIS THING AND THE ONLY REASON HE'S DECENT IN THE SIM IS BECAUSE OF SOME STATISTICAL GLITCH.

YOU HAVE SMOLTZ/QUANTRILL AND THEY'RE UNTOUCHABLE.  I HAVE ECK/FINGERS AND THEY CAN'T GET AN OUT.  WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE LARRY?  STOP GLOATING LIKE YOU KNEW WHAT YOU WERE DOING!!  YOU'RE STARTING TO SOUND LIKE CAPELLA.

Nipsey -I did know what I was doing...

I picked Quantrill because his top seasons are INCREDIBLE... he's never been a starter and he has a career adjusted ERA of 128, his high seasons in adjusted ERA are 238, 231, 193, 180, 156, and 3 in the 140s...

Fingers' high seasons: 332 (crazy-incredible), 196, 185, 146, 2 in the 130s, 3 in the 120s, 3 in the 110s...

Ecks' high seasons: 606, 237, 196, 148, 146, 4 in the 130s, 2 in the 120s...

Nips, I didn't say he was better, I said he fits statistically...and he does, statistically...

Ecks and Fingers had the wierd statistical thing... if anything Quantrill has been as stead, if not more, than Ecks and Fingers have career wise... He has more years with a 180+ adjusted ERA for sure...

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Smoltz hasn't given up a run yet. WTF??!! Has anyone checked Larry's roster to make sure he's using the third best years? Something isn't right here.....

He is, I checked.One thing I noticed, though, is that he's using Smoltz from 2002 which is actually his 12th best salary year but 3rd best RP salary year. It's probably his single best year, though, considering he had a 1.12 ERA and 0.87 WHIP. The IP column definitely skews some years' salaries higher than they should be.Lucked out there.

I never said he WAS better, I said statiscally, he looks better...I know Fingers and Eck had different roles...but name 50 relievers who have 4 or more years at 180+ adjusted ERA, because that is why I picked Quantrill, because he isn't gonna allow a lot of runs...

[ScottNorwood]

Larry, I'm not in this league or anything so I don't know how the sim stuff works, but Quantrill's career WHIP is 1.41. That's pretty awful. The reason his ERA isn't worse is because he's usually had strong closers pitching behind him to clean up his messes. You can't really argue that this guy is any good.
