Decades & Teams MLB Draft : CHAT

[UK Cowboy]

I honestly view the old time players the same way for the most part although OBP and ERA are two stats that a lot of those players would not come close to doing in todays game but I don't penalize any of them for it. Funny thing for me is I pick more old time players than anyone in almost every draft and I think we all know how many wins I got in MLB drafts...

That's because you always come up against the jet flying, kiss stealing, wheeling dealing.....

Smitty has to sit this one out. for the job he did during the last one being he's on vacation and still was able to text me picks!

I gotsta say I agree with 500, Stoke and UK as far as being able to change a players team...

 

[Ritzarmy]

I'll still be able to pick, that's how much talent I have...

You mean you'll make 2 bad picks instead of one?

Yes

So with Smitty out we got 9. I don't think Jeffro will be in this one but I do believe he will be back for the next draft.

So what do we do with 9?

No we wait till 10 we can find 1 more

 

[Nosferatu]

I think we should just draft 25 instead of 30.

I like the idea of changing it up a little and taking a player from the losing team, I do think we should make it you cant select a player selects in the first 5 rounds. That way we cant add players like the Bambino, Walter, Bonds...

 

[Nosferatu]

What do we do with playoffs with 10?

 

[Nosferatu]

I don't like the way we have playoffs now with 10 and I haven't come up with a better way...

Just quoted baseball-reference (I always thought he was thicker, something north of 220). Besides, the original comment was height not weight....

 

[Nosferatu]

Thanks for the reminder Ritz...

How about for the playoffs with 10 teams we rotate byes, meaning 6 teams get a bye and 4 play, the two winners join the 6 teams and we are at 8.

I keep track of the byes so it's not the same teams getting the bye each draft???

I've got a convoluted solution, if anyone has is interested.....

Look at some players before 1930... there were players shorter than altuve... I just don't think you could be short and successful for a long time... Sorry Altuve, i don't think your career will be too long!!!
