Good question. I did not. Some people are definitely going to need to do some creative managing, but I approached it with the mindset that I would only reject if there was no way it could work.

Only one team stood out enough to potentially be flagged based on innings (jbohrman with 1,479) but his pitcher quality was among if not the best across all owners (team WHIP 0.97), so I held off. I am also a bit worried about loyalcanuck (1,502 innings with a higher-end team WHIP of 1.21) but, again, not enough to pull the trigger on a redo. We'll see what happens.

It's always nice to get a shout out.

I checked and jbohrman's team won 89 games and lost to WaitNSee (eventual W.S. champ) in the first round of the playoffs. ozomatli's team won 66 games.

ahem - I won 104 games due to my great Adonis Terry pick. Of course lost in the first round of the playoffs however.

My worst WISC team ever, I believe

As we get close to the halfway mark, some poll updates:

9 people said they would definitely make Round 2. Only 5 of them are currently in the Top 24 (rbow923, ozomatli, jbohrman, brianjw, buddhagamer)

16 people said they had a 50/50 shot. About half of them, 7, are currently in the Top 24 (jmissirlis, schwarze, wink0094, jfranco77, ejstockman, redcped, NebHusker)

12 people said they'd get in if they got lucky. Only 1 is current in the Top 24 (dippedncrack), though a few others are very close and, ironically, might need to get lucky (cstrohmier, jetscanes)

19 people implied they would not make Round 2 (despite a few of them having made Round 2 in previous years). Maybe surprisingly, 3 of them are currently in the Top 24 (mpitt76, toddcommish, cubbies84)

The remaining 9 of the current Top 24 did not vote.

Which of your teams are you most worried about?

Man did I ever get that one wrong as they went on to win 111 games
