OFFICIAL WIS XVII THREAD: Long Balls, Boy Bands, and Booming Economies (2 Viewers)

Quoted Harris's 1990 season, but am actually going to use his 133 IP 1991 season. Missed that he was a reliever in 1990.

 

[Brady Marino]

It's taken me 7 pitchers just to get over 1000 innings. I'm going to end up with a 13 man rotation and a 3 man bench.

I'm at 958 with three starters. I like 750 of those innings so my team is gonna suck because I'm sure I won't like the other 600 or so.

The low IP pitchers with enough IP/G to start have been picked pretty clean. It wasn't a long list to begin with because of the usage patterns for relievers in the 90s.

Thank god all four of my starters have high IP and at least 7 IP/G. Not for scarcity sake, but also for salary cap purposes.

16.17- C/1B/OF Jim Leyritz

An abomination defensively at C, where he'll spell Lieberthal, but the guy can rake, pinch hit, and fill in at 1B and OF.

Picked by Greco three days ago

Must have mistyped him in the google doc.

 

[Brady Marino]

16.17 (take two)- C Junior Ortiz

Good OBP, contact, and a cannon for an arm with absolutely no power whatsoever.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Just realized the Schilling year X wants to use is flawed because he appeared in relief a couple of times. Hello, 5.39 IP/G.

1997 would be a good alternative

Agreed. I think it has to be done.

Edit: Sadly the HR/9 goes from .44 to .88 though.

And I thought it was a steal then.

 

[larry_boy_44]

I have 250 IP at just over 7 IP/G

118 IP at just over 5 IP/G

and 150 IP at 4.5 IP/G

and 300 IP of RP (which is actually all pretty decent, 1.5 IP/G among 3 different guys)

either way, I'm starting to get worried about this whole "don't pick a pitcher for 8 rounds" thing...

Is NV on skip or was he just posting that he was on a train?

No idea. But going to be tough to finish by wed at this pace

 

[rodg12]

FYI: Monday is a holiday in Canada, I'll be away for the long weekend, so you can skip me anytime, even from tomorrow morning (have a "team meeting" at a pub in Toronto for a couple hours tomorrow as well.

Bump. Kraft OTC.

As of Thursday morning I will be internet-less until the next Saturday so we should probably try to wrap this up rather quickly.

Do you mean between Thur May 23rd and Saturday May 25th? If so:

At current pace, we'll probably get to early-to-mid Round 18 today. Probably another full round over the weekend, or maybe a bit less. We'll probably get into next Monday morning early in Round 19, and end Monday in early Round 21.

We'll be cutting it close to have the free-for-all Round 25 take place before next Thursday, but it might just be possible. A brisk weekend over May 8th & 19th would help a ton.

Leaving for Canada the morning of the 23rd and returning the evening of the 31st. Will have zero internet or phone service while I'm up there (in the middle of nowhere). Need to get the draft done and get my team entered before I leave. If need be I suppose TRE (or anyone) could enter the team under their ID or something.

Same here. Leaving 23rd back on 30th with zero internet access.

For the third time, where to?

16.22 - Jim Poole, RP

He gone. Arsenal took him with his 10th round make-up pick.

Possible trade talk...

If someone wants to trade some decent starter innings for either Bob Hamelin or Mike Kingery I'd be willing to listen.

Slim pickings for my final bat - and additional few PAs as well.

Other than ####ting pitching and top heavy hitting, this thing should be a breeze.
