Hey Charles, any advice for my upcoming pick?
Hello RockNRolen,I'm honored you would ask for my assistance. My father has taught me many things about baseball. Unfortunately, I gave up on baseball a few years back when father got upset at me during a heated game of Strat-o-Matic. I shall review my Baseball Almanac and send you a personal message shortly.The Lord be with you.Yours in Christ,Charles
 
Was going to go with either Joyce or this guy

SS Bill Dahlen
Should be in the Hall of Fame but 19th century ballplayers haven't received a lot of love from the various veterans committees
Was between him and Belle for me
Dahlen had over 70 errors in his best offensive season. how does that translate in WIS?
bad in the past...potentially less bad this time around as WIS has started to use defensive normalization and he was slightly above a horrendous average that year. Having said that he may still make an error every 4th game or so and he'll still only have league average range. He'll be better than in past sims defensively, but still no great shakes.

There's a WIS fielding calculator at http://www.whatifsports.com/mlb-l/league_a...asp?Action=view that estimates number of errors using player and league fielding percentages. It's pretty :confused: but it's a view into the new fielding sub-system in the latest WIS update.I agree with Sammy that Dahlen should improve but it'll depend partially on the composition of your pitching staff. He could end up anywhere from 40 errors to his real-life number in full-time play.

I have a list for Pumpnick but he wasn't 100% sure about the pick last night.

I'm going to put RnR on the clock until xx:08 to give time to Pump to change his pick. If RnR times out, I'll pick off Pumpnick's list.
