Hi dshban, this is CaptainYesterday. You may know me from running a podcast that I mentioned. I am an Astros fan, and I can tell you that you have chosen some pretty poor Astros, and for 2010 that's saying something. Here are the 2010 Astros you should have picked:

-Lance Berkman
-Michael Bourn
-Hunter Pence
-Roy Oswalt

I have indeed picked the bad ones! However the good ones' statistical stats are even more troubletroubletrouble.

I should mention that Baseball Mogul doesn't take the individual season into account really, it does a projection for that player based on his career stats and age, similar to PECOTA or ZIPS. So even though Carlos Pena had an MVP type season in 2007, you shouldn't expect him to be that good. Also the Boogeyman rules

Oh.

I've done this whole thing entirely wrong then.

gently caress.

(yeah that was the best)

Don't worry about my team then because I did all my work based on one season stats and yeah :/
