Hmmmm, don't see any of my pitchers listed.  I never play low cap leagues and it may show.

Looks like I may have botched this; most popular players are "can't move" and I went with mostly "can't catch" and I also only have 1 pitcher on the list. Could be a long season.

Keep in mind that this "cookie factor" takes into account the actual season, so the numbers are a lot smaller.

I thought Mike Tyson was a boxer.  And Boob Fowler?  I thought that was spelled differently.  But, of course, everyone knows Unknown Palmer.

I had to settle for Boob Fowler when I couldn't find **** McGee.

Unknown Palmer doesn't talk much....kind of like Mysterious Walker.

Funny how Ted Williams and Pete Rose are unique picks in this league.

As for the pitchers, I figured if the guys behind them can't pick it, my pitchers better be able to strike some people out.

Hey Jeff, I'd be curious to know what ballparks were chosen. If you can't move, you'd better be in a park where you don't have to move much. (In my case it's to watch the balls zooming over your head into the seats behind you)
