I just got Reggie Jackson in the new random captain season. Some not great offense and really awesome pitching at first glance.

In the end, it comes down to throwing one pitch after another, and seeing what happens. With each new consequence, the game begins to take shape.
I got Dennis Eckersley and hoo boy this pitching

Sorry everyone I totally spaced on this! I'll post more details about next season when I get home from work.

I want to get revenge for the wrongs done to my sweet tandem pitchers

At 12:17 a.m. MU police spotted Mauk, 19, run a stop sign while driving his scooter east on Kentucky Boulevard - with two female passengers on board.
So I'm admittedly having trouble settling on a theme and wanted to put forward a few ideas:

Four Horsemen
This is a theme we've done a couple times in the past that's pretty popular. You're assigned one player each from the most expensive and least expensive qualified pitchers and hitters for each year, and fill out your team with players from those four years, and the bad players have to start.

Champs and Chumps
Here you're assigned four year and league combinations, like 1999 NL, and build your team with all the above .500 teams from one year and the below .500 teams for all other years.

Other
I could be flexible here. If players (particularly the newer ones) want a more open theme to see the whole player pool I can come up with a loose theme.

Four Horseman sounds cool especially if the salary update has changed who exactly is the most and least expensive qualified players for each year, but I'm down for whatever

Hadn't even thought of this, but it does make it more appealing than it already is.

I'd do Four Horsemen again, I also like the idea of the low cap season too.

Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!

My vote's for Four Horsemen, I forget who my guys were the last time we did it but I think it's a super fun theme.

Oh, there's plenty of other balls in the sea. Plus, you're not very talented.

It looks like people are pretty warm on Four Horsemen so I'll get working on the S27 thread.

It took me way too long to make this list so I'll put it here for now. Some of these horsemen have definitely changed since the salary update.
