Round Two - League 03 - COMPLETED! Topic


Things to remember:

Team Building: The combinations are listed with the better team named first, followed by the weaker team second. Your roster can have no more than TEN players from the better franchise and the rest must come from the weaker franchise. For example, if you chose the “1903-1904: Philadelphia Athletics – Chicago White Sox” in League Two, you can only have ten players from the Athletics and the other fifteen players must come from the White Sox.

Clones! You're allowed ONE per team. It can be either a pitcher or a position player – and it must come from one of your two years and one of your two franchises. In other words, if you have the 1919-1920 Brooklyn Robins/Boston Red Sox, you can use the 1919 version of Babe Ruth but you can’t use the 1920 version since that player is from the Yankees. Also, I'm not sure if this will even come up but - if, for example, the 1919-1920 New York Yankees/Boston Red Sox was a choice, you COULD use both versions of Ruth (as your clone of course) since he was on both of your listed franchises.

NO CAP – Build the best roster you can from your combo.

Clones: Just one per team as mentioned above.

Designated Hitter: Yes
Waiver Wire: No
Injuries – Turned On
Trades: No
A.A.A.: No

You may use either partial or full season stats of any player who had a split season - as long as the stats indicate it was for your franchise.

Stadium – You must use a stadium that existed during the time-frame of your combo AND was the home ballpark for one of your two franchises. If that ballpark isn’t in the database, you must use WhatIfSports Park.

Every pick can and must include their division choice with their team selection.

I Will Select the 1917-1918: New York Giants – Philadelphia Athletics in the AL West ...

1919-1920 Pirates/Browns, NL West
1/11/2023 5:53 AM
OK, I've agonized over this for far, far too long. I just need to pick one. Here goes.

1919-1920: New York Giants – St. Louis Cardinals
NL East


I'm going to be really interested to see if the next few picks are the teams I was trying to choose between.

1/11/2023 10:23 AM
Sorry for the delay. Tied up at work all day.
Can’t make up my mind but don’t want to hold up things any longer.
I’ll take the 13-14 Red Sox and Cardinals in the NL central
1/11/2023 7:01 PM
1911-1912: Boston Red Sox – Brooklyn Dodgers

AL Central
1/11/2023 8:45 PM
I've had my eye on this team since the Top 30 draft. Although the pitching is slightly below average, and the offense is slightly above average, the defense is out of this world. Assuming I clone Speaker, I could have A+ range guys in all three OF spots, as well at SS and 1B.

1917-1918: Cleveland Indians - Pittsburgh Pirates
AL West

1/11/2023 9:47 PM
Scrapping everything to try to glean some wisdom from the master team builder directly above:

Pitching slightly below average? Check
Hitting slightly above average (not consistently but overall Check)
Shortstop with A+ range? Check
First baseman with A+ range? My first baseman don't need no stinkin' defense
Center fielder with A+ range? Check again.
Other outfielders with A+ range? Not happening.

Hoping this choice will be close enough:

1919-1920: New York Yankees – Washington Senators

playing in the AL Central



1/11/2023 11:26 PM
I'm still a few picks away, but I'm going to sleep. Will pick in the a.m.
1/11/2023 11:32 PM
1915-1916 Brooklyn Dodgers/Brooklyn Robins/Pittsburgh Pirates (N.L. West)

At #4 I agonized between them and my pick. I can't believe they dropped this far. I wish they had dropped into the American League.

After finalizing my roster for this team, I've come to the realization that I don't think they're going to do very well. At all. How sad is it when you get to clone one player to help your team win - and the player you've chosen to clone is one that you've never heard of before?

Bill Hinchman, anyone?
