Let's be honest, X kinda does whatever he wants anyway.

Except win.

It Happened

I think he enjoys the misery of defeat.

Get used to it. We have about 23 rounds of meh left. Which at some point will turn to blech. And then Harrier will pick a starting caliber Pitcher in round 25

I really wonder ... if you could time-travel guys like Ted Williams and Babe Ruth into the modern era, would they lose .250 off their typical OPS just from facing fresh pitchers so much more often?

Probably to some extent. The stuff is better too. Highest Average Pitcher Velocity ever.

Mathews was a great pick. Looked at him when I took Snider.

 

[Koya]

Moops -

Can you take some time off from patting yourself on the back and pick a stadium?

TIA.

Man, tough choices here. Was looking at the Hippo though wasn't otherwise going pitching. Definitely a Larry Plateau there. Then the scarcity positions. But I'll take some more pop and a ton of walks to complement Ruth and deal with the crappy D.
