Trying to figure out pitching and hitting with the high and low players is challenging. My love/hate relationship with WiS is rekindled.

I have a team that I could enter but I will likely tear it down and start over again, because that is what I do.

I have four slightly different iterations of this team and I can't figure out which one will suck less.

it is a team

did most people draft the normalish number of starter innings then + their bad horse? i dunno how bad welzer is going to be or if i'm going to find myself super screwed there, but if i drafted another 100 good starter innings probably a bunch of them would be wasted anyway.

I bought a six pack of teams and entered a revision of my speed team into an open league because I got sick of waiting for this to start.

Made the playoffs with my switch hitting speed demons team, averaging 3.5 SB per game. It looks like I am playing a 2004 V-Mart with a D+ arm in the first round too :hawksin:

I tweaked the lineup a bit and I have another team with 176 SB in 32 games - averaging 5.5 per on my way to 20-12!

10 SB in 4 playoff games against an A+ Catcher resulting in a 3-1 series win. My next series is against a D+ arm V-Mart.

My other team is still averaging 5.78 SB/game and is in First Place.

Thanks it's only my second world series win, and was totally unexpected. Speed is an interesting gimmick. I'm totally going to get motor boated in the ToC.

Some poor bastard in the ToC had a progressive team with the 1961 Braves and I swept him in the first round. I feel kinda bad about that.

Lost in game 7 of the ToC Final 4. I'm only sad that it was a team built for an $80m cap that was in a $100m bracket, that was a hell of a handicap to overcome and I am proud the team made it that far.
