In all honesty, if I were to pick anyone to dominate their division, it would be Skunk. He's pretty much the best there is at this cap level/open format... In my opinion.

yep I was actually afraid in the Pressure Cooker theme that I would get stuck with him in my division... was at one point going to name my Pressure Cooker team for him lol.

I keep playing his 120 million league, only to have him (and Ozo) beat me regularly. Its a little masochistic at this point.

Question for the Schoolyard draft theme:

Example: An owner selects Ed Walsh as one of his four players (and he rosters the 1908 version).

#1: Can the owner pick any ballpark Ed Walsh played in at any time in his career like Comiskey Park (I) or does it have to be South Side Park (III) where he played in 1908?

#2: In 1917, Ed Walsh only pitched 18 IP for the Boston Braves (not WIS eligible for that season). Could that owner select Braves Field?

could you answer this one? will influence my draft strategy

Also quick question. Y’all all mention spreadsheets. Where do you get them for certain leagues?

I'd like to know the answer to this before I make my picks as well.

It's meant to be any park that the player played in at any point in their career. Apologies for the ambiguity with the original wording

I really hate this $160M theme. Had most of a team built and then noticed there was a DH. Had to scrap it all and restart. Now I've built a team I like and I'm filling in the missing pieces. Stuck with $400k for the letter Y and there's no player that fits the remaining decades/franchises.

Its mind bending. Sooo hard not to waste salary.

Changing one thing leads to changing everything, ha. I don't see a way out.

I put together one team that is actually OK. I'm going to save it and see if I can tweak and reduce the wasted salary.

I feel into this same trap. I backtracked a few spots to find a DH, and am now at 20/25 roster spots filled, with some tight pieces to try and fit in. Don't know if I'll be able to do it without starting over.

For the 160M theme, I've got a pretty solid team together that was able to spend all but 409K of the cap. Have several true mop up guys in the pen that allowed me to fulfill all of the criteria, but you can't have everything with this theme.

I finally put together a legal team. It's not bad but I want better than not bad for the 2nd Round.

I’ve been wayyy overthinking these Open League teams I usually do well in ($120 and $130 mil caps).

I need this thing to start so I don’t keep ******* up my roster more than I already have.
