George H Ruth: Sorry to say it, Babe, but there are some problems with your roster.

For the Nationals / Orioles game in 2007, three of the four players are good, but Chris Snelling did not appear in that game, so you need to replace him with someone who did. The box score is here: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BAL/BAL200706120.shtml

For the Brewers / Angels game in 1993, I'm not sure what happened here. Robin Yount did play, but none of the three pitchers you listed for the Brewers appeared in the game; Cal Eldred pitched a 10-inning complete game for the win. So you have to find three other players who appeared in that game, and you might need to find pitchers somewhere else in your six pages. Here is the box score:

OK, I think I got it squared away.

I have replaced Chris Snelling with Ryan Langerhans.

I have replaced the three Brewers pitchers with the three Angels pitchers, Grahe, Frey and Leftwich, and somehow stayed below the 90M threshold.

1. 1944 Cincinnati Reds Batting Orders [any four who started a game that year, including starting pitchers]: Bucky Walters, Ed Heusser, Eddie Miller, Estel Crabtree
2. Yankees @ Twins, September 3, 1966, second game of doubleheader Tom Tresh, Tony Oliva, Steve Hamilton, Jim Ollom**
3. 1985 Cleveland Indians Batting Statistics - for some reason, this page DOES list all the pitchers, even though none of them had a PA, so they are eligible Mel Hall, Benny Ayala, Mike Fischlin, Mike Jeffcoat
4. P Billy Hart 1890 St. Louis Browns Billy Hart, John Munyan, Mike Trost, Joe Neale
5. Philadelphia Athletics @ White Sox, June 14, 1922 Eddie Collins, Bing Miller, Earl Sheely, Frank Bruggy
6. P David Carpenter 2012-15 (2014 Angels) Mike Trout, Joe Smith, Huston Street, David Carpenter**
WC - 1907 Orval Overall
**-need AAA for Ollom and Carpenter
$89,028,081
Stadium: Angel Stadium

Side note: Billy Hart is really the albatross on this team, sucking up $6.2M for 242 mediocre innings. Could certainly have been worse, though. But not too many guys with only one season who played that much.

midknight: Your roster is good to go.

normy 17: Your roster is also good to go, assuming you meant BOB Oliver from the 1970 box score; Joe Oliver wasn't around then.

Oh, for 1985 Joe Boever, your AAA pick is 2016 Jim Henderson.

So when we draft our teams, we manually select these guys as AAA. Then once we are entered, we rename them and promote them to replace the 200K guys we drafted as placeholders?

FYI my filler for Jeff Williams is Alan Mills although he's over 200K. If not acceptable then I'll find a guy who's exactly 200K.

Slightly over 200k is fine, if you don't care about the last few $ of payroll.

Apologies to everyone for being slow this week; my wife and I have been co-opted into caring for a two-year-old while her mom awaits a new delivery. I will be back home this weekend and hopefully round up our stragglers!
12/19/2019 6:30 PM
Also apologies. Haven't had much time between the holidays and some unexpected health issues in the family.
I have the start of a team but just have not had the time to finish/tune it. I will be definitely be in and will be done by New Years at the latest.
