5 SEASON FRANCHISE BLEND-FreeTeams-need 1 Topic

93 dodgers is probably the way to go with the rotation...it gets the 35 hr a- piazza into the lineup also.

03 Braves rotation ain't so hot, though the twist to 92 Maddux would be nice. That Braves OF is by far my best optiion though..with nice Sheffield, chipper and a good Andruw Jones year.

One of Bretts lesser years with Willie Aikens at 1b. White has nice defense but something like a .280 obp. Ul Washington is my only option at SS...doh. Aikens isn't bad, but not even 500 abs.

My WC would probably be Don Wilson for the 73 stros and the Orioles are really my only option in the pen. I'd use my pitching twist on Wes Stock of all people to put another 100 halfway decent innings in the pen.

Not too bad I guess...about 85 million in salary before my two twists.

TEAM 5 -Deltagorfers - 83 CHW 73 NYM 2003 KC 63 CLE 93 WAS

is this right? Can pretty much write me off I think lol

That is correct...

Seaver, Koosman, and Matlack are going to be strong in this league.
12/22/2009 12:40 AM
Bell, Abernathy, Ramos, and Wynn isn't horrible in the pen(Indians)...Royals can swing either way with the IF or the OF...Ibanez, Beltran and Rondell White with a fair season from Guiel...Relaford gets in there also.

Wetteland would make a sweet WC pick up there. (expos)

The 83 Sox are kinda junkie in that their best piece is their starters....though I don't think they are better than the Mets Starters.

As far as SoxYanks comment that he had the '03 Cincy and '73 CHW and both sucked, here's what I found;

You're right about Cincy. Your best option might be to use the IF (Decent Boone and Jimenez) you could twist Casey to 2004. No pitching.

'73 ChiSox isn't bad in that you can use Wood as your WC and twist him to '72. 397 IPs at 1.06 WHIP. Started 49 games so you could go up to 54 starts with him in this league.

That is pretty much what I ended up doing...used 83 Spos Battery, Twisted WW to 72, 03 Reds INF twisting Larkin back to 02, 63 ox OF, and the 93 Cards Pen

This is going to be interesting. I am finding it hard to get a full season of AB's for an entire component...INF or OF. This has been fun trying to decide!

Like my team, which probably means I'll have a losing season.
63 Yankees starters very good
03 Twins taking RP Santana and twisting him to 04
03 Twins bullpen a bit light but seemed like the best option
83 Cardinals inf solid "D" but a thirdbaseman that's going to make alot of errors. Twisting Herr to 84
93 Oaklland OF a bit weak here and the defense has some holes
73 Mil wildcard picked up May to give OF a little better "D" and "O"


3 ies in starting rotation, in general have not had a lot of luck with ies at WIS

But I'll take my chances with a very good Ford and Santana, at least they look good on paper.

thanks to no 63 mets team i am lucky and get the 93 blue jays..i am stacked in the if...my of isnt bad..its my bullpen that is going to suffer even with twists..i could use a catcher..
12/23/2009 11:59 PM
93 pads bullpen sucks but thats my weak point..
