Going to use him in my State of Birth league.  Just wondering what year I should use.  I can choose any park, but leaning towards a hitters park since my team will also have Walter Johnson & Claude Hendrix.

Thinking about using 1989 Mike Moore as a #4/5 starter.  Anyone had success with him?

Also, is Jim Thorpe a good bench player?

I'm not a huge Brecheen fan, but I've heard that `48 Brecheen performs a little better than you might expect.  `43 Brecheen is also supposed to be decent, but you can only use him as a long reliever because iof his low IP/G.  Jim Thorpe is a good bench player as long as you leave him on the bench.  J/k.  The only one worth using is `19, but he can't field his way out of a paper bag and there are many better pinch hitters/utility men in that general price range. 

89 Mike moore just won a Cy Young award for me in a $70M league. 1.09 - .212 - 2.47 ERA. I didnt expect that much and I'm not likely to use him again in anything higher than $70M.

Just finished up using the 1943 Brecheen in a $100mm cap theme league. Team won the world series (had to get that in).

Harry's line

68 GP, 14 of which were starts
6-4 in 141.7 IP, 126 hits, 10 homers, 66 BB, 77 K's, .236 OAV, .322 OBp, .335 Slugging, 1.36 WHIP and 3.25 ERA. Played home games at Braves Field, (-1/-1/-2/-1/0).
The 4.19 Bb/9 was higher than I like (RL is 2.58), but all in all, he was an important part of a championship team. I had him set as Set Up A, 30 TPC with MPC of 35 and pull setting of 2 most of the year. With the spot starts, he ended up getting almost all of his allowable IPs in. Actually could have pushed him a bit more, but didn't need to.

I don't think you an use the '89 Morgan as an effective starter... his RL IP per game is only 3.82 (played in 40 games of which 19 were starts). you'd have to set his pitch counts at around 60/65 in order to avoid in game fatigue. At least with the '43 Brecheen, you can push him to 75 pitches per start.

I use the 1948 Harry Brecheen often at $100M-$120M caps.  At $8.9M for only 246 IP/162, he is a bit too expensive for lower caps.

He is somewhat inconsistent from game to game, but generally he has a very good overall season.  I think he tends to give up too many hits in some games for a .222 OAV/OAV#.  His very low 0.23 HR/9 (300 HR/9+) is his major strength.

I've got 43 Brecheen on my team in bagchucker's All Years Progressive.   This is our first season so every player in the league is in their rookie year.  Salaries vary from 121M to 59M, but only 4 teams are below 88M. 

Here's my whole staff just for comparison's sake.  Brecheen has been better than I expected.  Home park is Chase.
