I can jump ahead since Barracuda already has his; 1980 Rod Carew $4,526,038

Everyone above me already has their Doyle pain, so...

1983 Doyle Alexander TOR - $2,062,429

Mazeroski, Bill

1957 Pittsburgh Pirates

3,822,091

I’ll jump in with the costliest player whose only job is to bat against Mickey Lolich:

1968 Ernie Banks

$4,226,265

Assuming he can bring his catcher along, I can jump in with '70 Lolich.

97 Wickman (and Doug Jones)

1983 Rod Carew $ 4,776,194

I've been maintaining a spreadsheet where I project what everyone's roster will be. If calhoop is doing what I think he's doing, he's doing something that I would've thought impossible at the beginning of the draft. If I had thought it was possible I would've tried to do it. I'm very impressed.

Does it involve Seward?

That's my thought, yes.

I didn't think it would be possible to avoid the salary weight of all the guys you'd have to draft and still roster him effectively. There were too many "ifs" involved, and if you end up with the wrong combination at the end ... well, if he does pull it off, then hats off.

Keeping a spreadsheet of all 16 team projections? Now THAT is impressive!!

I think barracuda knows more about my roster than I do. I'm curious to see what his projections are...
