Space it out in notepad and use the HTML code option. Click on the "<>" symbol on your formatting bar to select HTML code.

Has anyone ever got a good season out of Ted Kluszewski? I had a few iterations ago and had to put him on the bench.

Noted.

There's nothing that jumps out in his advanced stats that would be an obvious problem, like a high k rate. Maybe the opposite extreme works against him because his contact rate is so high that the lower hit rate makes him prone to runs of bad luck on BABIP?

I had Klusz in an early sim and remember him doing pretty darn well. May have been the dice rolling sim, but can't remember.

That sim was the start of my swoon. It sent me on like a 2 or 3 year tilt.

I am enjoying this format. I have been doing some Koya-like planning. I had a 3 player 3B platoon set up with Matt Williams and 2 other guys. It would have had 630 PA's with 33 HR and a slash line of .332 / .420 / .620. The defense would have been very good, also. However, due to other needs in those decades I abandoned the other 2 pieces and will replace them with other players later.

That would have been one bad-### 3B theoretically.

I totally get why Koya liked doing those platoons. I was enjoying building Franken3B.

your last pick was skipped so you're on auto for the rest of the day(notice I picked before you did)

Larry, with all due respect, I'm somewhat surprised you would even protest. There is a (literally) years long history of you delaying drafts... of being in the thread then not picking. Of not communicating that you may be delayed, nor any real show of remorse when you do hold people up, repeatedly. It is, honestly, a bit inconsiderate if not rude.

Now we know life takes precedence over this, but we are talking about a long established pattern of not seeming to care about the other drafters, and not ever really taking responsibility for it. My goodness, Hoos has just been through a family tragedy, and while in his case it was not at all necessary for him to update us, he actually found time to keep us in the loop. I think you could take a different approach going forward and try to be more timely, or at least communicate when you are not

GREAT ####### POSTING

 
Marius Russo, P, 1930s

I don't argue or apologize or say anything because it doesn't do any good. It doesn't matter what I say or why I'm late/gpne, it is irrelevant to a very vocal portion of the people in this thread. So I just be silent and ignore it. No reason to give ammunition for free.

The only reason I said anything there is because it was someone I was considering that got picked when I was skipped for, seemingly, no reason. Its not a big deal, there's an infinite number of things in life more important than this insignificant distraction. Which is why I'm not going to say anything else about it.

Larry, I think my post was pretty respectful. The fact that you avoid it only makes the issue worse. But to act as if you are above the fray and that it's fine to inconvenience people (regardless of the priority of this thing in all of our lives) and not even apologize? It's just inconsiderate.
