Ok

 

[femurov]

Just an idea...

We draft

8 Hall of Famers
8 players not in the Hall of Fame
8 players who played in 3 All Star Games or less

Bonds, Clemens, Raffy, McGwire all count as HOFers

Interesting why you would pick Raffy and McGwire to count as HOFers and not someone like ARod.

Oh yeah, and Arod!

 

[femurov]

Oh yeah, and Arod!

Wasn't quite my point, but ok...

 

[Nosferatu]

Wasn't quite my point, but ok...

I simply forgot about him.

 

[UK Cowboy]

Like it

 

[femurov]

In the interest of fairness, do you want to consider Mariano Rivera a HOFer?

Yes, now quit being mean to me!

 

[femurov]

No disrespect was intended...

 

[Shanemansj13]

When does this start? I want in if you start Tuesday or later..

 

[UK Cowboy]

Sigh...if we are excluding should be HOF, what about Shoeless Joe and Pete Rose? I figure if we let them all in, all our sharp folks would try and grab one each....

 

[Nosferatu]

No disrespect was intended...

I know, I was just messin' geez!

 

[Nosferatu]

I wanna start Monday now...

Ok so Joe and Pete are HOFers but I believe we will need to talk about making anyone who began their career prior to 1930 a hall of famer...

Or...just a thought...8 MVP, Cy Young or pre 1930, 8 with less than 10 AS games(2010 rule) and 8 with 2 or less ASG's. Bonds, Clemens, etc, would rank top tier automatically. Solves it, no?

Or how about

10 or more AS OR current and pre 1930

3 or less AS

4-9 AS

 

[Mebert]

Is Bill Bergen considered a HoF?

Good job nos I was doing great fielding a team of players. That only wore the number 8. Until I hit the pitching
