Holy crap this took off fast. If anyone happens to drop out, I'll take a spot.

Yep, it filled very quickly. It pays to check the forums frequently.

You guys are just washing away all my preliminary research here
LOL. I learned many versions ago not to start researching until the players were locked in.

The problem is I had the time then and will have less of it this weekend. Better some progress with a bit wasted than none, I figure.

I am switching my pick to 1953 Warren Spahn.

He's got a bunch of usable seasons that should do ok against the plethora of lefty batters.
I just now saw this. You %*#$@^%!!! Why else would I pick Mathews following all the pitching slots being full!!!

LOL, nice move schwarze. Sneaky, but a good one.

How many hours do I have left to find a different player now???

Make sure you read the new rules for this version carefully. Picking 53 Mathews would not have got you 53 Spahn whether he was picked or not

Ahh, thank you. I missed that change on the nominated players.

My apologies schwarze. I need to slowdown my reading on these.

I was worried that somebody would miss this rule which is why I highlighted it in yellow. Glad you found out now, instead of when the rosters were due.

I just calculated the divisions. '53 Spahn is the fifth highest salaried nominated player, behind '33 Hubbell (pedrocerrano), '40 Feller (eblankenste), '31 Grove (calhoop) and ''46 Ted Williams (3dayrotation).

So you are safely out of my division.
Well, now you can blame 3dayrotation.
