Devious Weasel league - The results of the screwin Topic

Creating this thread to share the results of the hosing that we received in the Devious Weasel league.

Keep in mind that this is just for informational purposes only.... If someone claims a player as an exclusive that you have on your franchise, you will have to re-do it.  You will also not be held to this roster.

For example, on my team , I have 1937 Rogers Hornsby as a 67 PA pinch hitter.  If someone chooses Hornsby as his exclusive player (which may happen), I'll need to re-do my team to pick a different player from the 30's Browns to replace Hornsby.


 *****NOTE.... After posting your team, if you use Internet Explorer, then edit the post.... Select the column with the pictures in it with a RIGHT CLICK and select COLUMN  then DELETE COLUMN    You'll need to do this for the hitters and the pitchers.    Makes it much easier to read    ******

This is the team I'll be playing in Wrigley field (LA).  Pretty bad.  Good offense, bad pitching.  No help from my exclusive. 

In an open league, this might be a 50 win team.

I don't hate my OBP.

I don't hate Pujols in Coors.

If I ever have to use my bullpen, however...*shudder*

You might be a little better off than I am...

What's going to be funny is that 2 teams from this league will be in the TOC.    :)

I went a little light on IP because of Petco -- even though a number of other teams will be in high octane stadiums  -- as I have a very solid defense behind fairly solid pitchers in a ballpark that doesn't allow runs. I don't figure this league will play like a normal $80m league, so I figure I can get probably around 15% more IP from my pitcher over RL as opposed to the standard 10%. 

I didn't really pay attention to the IP of each pitcher as I was drafting them, I went solely by OAV#/WHIP#/HR/9#+... I only made one exception to that rule, taking the '88 Moore instead of the '85 based on performance history. So, this will be an interestingly set up rotation and bullpen, but a strong one.

My defense is solid, especially for my home stadium, and my offense is about standard for the era. I do have more triples than I would've guessed from a team in the fairly modern era, and I have a few legit speed and power threats. Plus, Even though it is griffin's worst season, he normalizes excellent with AVG+/OBP+/SLG+ all at or above 110, so his # slash looks like .269/.347/.369. Which, when you factor in his defense, makes him a great selection.

My first five hitters (Griffin, Bradley, Reynolds, Paciorek, Davis) will do well, it's my 6 hitter (Presley) and my two platoons at SS (Owen, Milbourne, Tartabull) and C (Valle, Bradley, Cochrane) that I worry about offensively. Though the 3rd part of both of those should make great PHers!
9/13/2012 1:47 AM
I'll guarantee that I wouldn't want to manage that pitching staff, but you have a fairly strong team for this league. 

Now edit that post to remove those horrible icons!

Well this is the fore runner between two teams I am contemplating using. No real closer,  no base stealing threats, average defense, and hopefully enough PA's and PT to make it through a full season in Yankee Stadium III.  Maybe 70 wins????? Sounds like wishful thinking....

For this league, that's an incedible rotation... I see that as a way over .500 team.

I second len's take. That's a monster pitching staff for a league like this. My team won't be close to those WHIPs and the offense should give you enough runs to win with your good pitching.

And that is the reason I didn't hand out those 60's Mets. Now if someone were to go and take say Seaver and Koosman as exclusive players then it wouldn't look nearly as good. :)

We should make this league Double Devious and make everyone select a hitter and pitcher next time. That would really chop some quality out of the franchises.
