Is there intentional tanking and casual tanking or is it all the same?

I wouldn't use him as a SP.    Tandem B to maximize his innings or, if that's not your preference, Long A at 40-50 PC or SuA at 25-35 PC.

You'll figure it out.  But don't think you're the only one aiming for the #1 pick.

I lost 6 straight to the best team in the AL.   You had nothing on Sunday.

Both.

I'd use him in CF because that range is hard to find but he'd be a stud at 2B.

In season 4 of No Trade Clause and there are six games left in regular season.  I am on a 7 game losing streak and need to go 3-3 in the last six to meet the 4-season minimum win rule of 280.

Am I going to make it? Should the min win rule be applied when I never fell under the individual season win requirement or the first three season win requirement? Can 277 be rounded up to 280 to meet the criteria?

How many games will I win in Moonlight Graham this season?
2/8/2012 10:16 PM
No, you are not going to make it.  Yes, it should be applied.  It can but I wouldn't do it.   Just opens the door for the next owner to say "I only missed it by 3.   EasyE was given a pass!!!"   Then the next guy will say "I only missed by 4!!!"

12 more than me.

Do you think I'll be around to see the end of the splashy deals I laid out in MG?

You've been on the "You must win x-amount of games" list forever.   Probably not.

Is it reasonable to have a minimum win rule in HBD?
2/9/2012 12:33 PM
I think it should be required.   If a team goes 38-124 in real life, several people are losing their jobs.    Without a MWR in HBD, they're just getting first pick.  So, if a team is 36-55 at the break, there's really no reason they shouldn't finish 2-69.   It's actually better for them.  So you'd get a race to the bottom.

What about over a period of time, multiple seasons? I met the minimum win requirement over the first three seasons both individually and in aggregate.  I'm two wins away with four to go. Are you saying I should be out?

To the best of my knowledge, I was the first person to create a 4 season MWR.    55/125/195/280.   I designed it that way to "catch" the guys who played the "win the minimum number" game in season 4(which would be 85 if you hit the first three exactly).    I think, if you're hoping to find someone to commiserate with your potential expulsion, you're barking up the wrong tree.  I offer no reprieves to anyone who falls short under any circumstance.

We'll see how good of a commish we have - will he even notice I didn't make it (if I don't got 2-2 in the last four)?
