I'd say 30 min for Larry, executive decision. He's not in the thread and hasn't checked in today that I've seen

 

[Brady Marino]

So he's skipped then.

SCBF, fire away so we can wait another 30 minutes after Kraft picks.

 

[the moops]

midnight last night was last time he was on here

SKIP!

I still have plenty of draft to mess it up, but I am reluctantly pleased to this point.

Wtf happened to SCDK?

ETA: and what are normalized stats

1. They are guesstimations at this point.2. They are the # numbers in each player's advanced stats in WIS. They compute how a player would perform in a "normal" era.

ETA: and what are normalized stats

The sim uses a log5 based system to normalize performance across different eras. A 3.0 ERA in a pitching season like 1968 is a lot less valuable than in a runs heavy year like 2006.

How do you guys figure batting order. Is it based on some computation, or hey, this guy would look good here

ETA: and what are normalized stats

Normalized stats are era adjusted, you can find them on the advanced tab of the player season profiles.

I do line-up projections based on how a player profiles in the normal line-up construction methodology. EG - you want your high OBP guys up front, higher slugging guys in the middle, etc. Number of PAs factors in also if you need to protect a guy who is a little short of a full season.

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

Jesse Burkett OF 1890's good hit, suspect glove

Bruce Sutter P 1970's

Grabbing a reliever from the 70"s where there isn't as much depth.

 

[AcerFC]

Thanks guys. I wasnt looking at any of that stuff. I hope to be with Greco and win 60 games.

You also need to consider PA/162 when constructing your batting order. If your highest OBP guy only has 600 PAs, he'll get fatigued if you bat him leadoff every day.

WIS gives everybody a 10% bump over real life PA/162 and IP/162.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Stirnweiss does not look good in the #2 spot, for example.

Not sure about a Steroid Era pick on a Relief Pitcher, but I've never had him and I love the glasses.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Larry getting left in the dust here, right?

Yeah, he's barely making an effort IMO. He should just ask to be put on autoskip so we don't have to debate this every round.

Be sure you use PA/162 and IP/162 instead of real-life PA and IP. WIS adjusts every season (including strike seasons) to 162 games.

Forget ask. He's on autoskip whether he likes it or not (if I were running things).

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I have great gas today. This guy I work with is hard of smelling and he is never able to taste my brew. It really makes me angry to be honest, but today he walked right into one and almost passed out.

His nephew is 12 days old now, maybe older if he's dealing with Larry.
