jpeterso deserves a nice gift. I searched everywhere and I think I found just what he needs. Talent at all the same positions that he already has in his portfolio. The 1966 Kansas City Athletics are that special group. You will kiss off into the air after seeing this collection of doods. They meet any definition or slang meaning of dood, Yes, they are versatile and just the glue needed to compliment Jackie and Pee Wee and that first baseman you got. Campaneris, Cater and Ed Charles aren't bad, but they play the same positions as your dudes. Well, maybe you could downgrade and save some cash. You do have some cheap filler on the team, but nothing of that is remotely playable. That is probably what you will be forced to do, because these doods are not everydayers or platooners. Hope you can somehow fill all the lineups holes with your last team.

Now the pitching has some glimmers of hope. They are a little like a blister in the sun. Its over quickly. As in no one has over 180 IP. What do you do with that? Some nice relievers there in Aker and Odom, but pricey. Stock has only 45 IP. The price point and durability on this whole group will be a dilemma on choosing 6 of these doods.

Your fans will sing 'Gone Daddy Gone'. Hopefully, not all the love will go away. But hey, there won't be any "Waiting for the Bus" for the poor souls that attend your games as all the bus routes amazingly never experience delays near your stadium on game days. Good luck this season dude.

Pretty harsh to throw jpeterso in the well like that.
Still waiting to hear the sound when he hits bottom.

One thing about this league is if you see Kansas City Athletics next to your team name, it's never good news.

I don't think kentol will feel too bad about this pick.

It's the best I could come up with though I probably over-thought it.

Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Mel Ott, Carl Hubbell, Juan Marichal all played for this storied franchise.

Kentol gets the 1976 San Fransisco Giants

Kentol gets the 1976 San Fransisco Giants

Those were one of my finalists for calhoop, alas.

seay00 has a solid foundation with the 76 Yankees, but there's a problem: when you combine them with the 76 White Sox, they don't offer many options in terms of cheap backups. With that in mind, let me present to you the 1946 Cincinnati Reds.

In some respects, a pretty good team. You could practically use their pitching staff right out of the box. But you'll have to make some tough payroll choices, because you're running out of players to fill out your roster. Putting the 76 Yankees, 76 White Sox, and 46 Reds rosters together, you have:

• Six catchers, but none under $1M
• Seven second basemen, but none under $995K
• Three third basemen, but none under $1.6M
• Five shortstops, but none under $700K

The only backups under $1M at any of these positions are on the 76 NYY, which means you'll be forced to squander roster spots from your strongest team on backups (or eat extra salary and wasted plate appearances). Good luck!

Look forward to the challenge. It sounds terrible!

congrats on your WS title.

redcped has the 56 Braves and the 36 Reds. Braves give him a great foundation on offense and pitching. Reds don't offer much. Let's keep that trend going.
I present the 36 Brooklyn Dodgers. No one with more than 4 homers. No pitching except for a 9.7 million Van Mungo. Enjoy!

Giving vilefileman the 1976 Cleveland Indians

Favorite thing about this team is that the best hitter, Rico Carty, shows up in the 1b slot when you load the team but he is actually a dreaded Util (=DH) when drafted separately onto a blank roster so he cannot be used.

You know it's bad when even a lifelong Dodger fan isn't excited to see this.
