1955 Washington Senators

I’ll post my reasoning later

can someone sitemail for me

They suck?

Onto jonstephen25, I gift the 1925 Cleveland Indians

Not a usable pitcher on the staff, and not much in the way of bats to add to the lineup outside of dagger candidates Sewell and Speaker.

A couple of those pitchers look like Addie Joss compared with the ones on my '75 Braves.

You don't want to use Carl Morton as your ace?

Sadly, Carl Morton is on my tentative roster. Feel free to dagger him though!

Evil twin selected the 65 Twins as his anchor team. They had a great pitching staff with multiple starters and relievers to roster. Lineup was solid too with Killebrew, Oliva, Hall, Battey and MVP Versalles. However they had a huge hole at 2B with .196 hitting Kindle. So how to best exploit that weakness?

I present you with the 75 Houston Astros. A good outfielder in Cedeno, a great utility player in Cliff Johnson and another 1B you don't really need. Oh and your 2B situation isn't addressed either. The rest of the lineup, while long on speed, features a bunch of banjo hitters.

Pitching staff won't help much either. Salad throwing hurlers with lousy WHIPs. Except for James Rodney Richard, but his ghastly 6+ BB/9 should keep him on the sidelines.

Welcone to the neighborhood and on a serious note thank you for stepping in on short notice to keep us going.

Y'all are grabbing all the teams I wanted to dump on the Commish here ...

Don't be surprised if we slow down a bit after this next pick.

The owners are having to screw teams with a third team after they just got their second.

Don't feel rushed if you are picking in the early third round.

Paging Dr. WINGIT

Vilefileman hasn't opened sitemail yet, but he's always been a great owner, so not worried.

I got a question about collusion. This was a rules question, not an accusation.

Please don't.

Let people make their own decisions without outside influence.

In the same vein if you post an explanation of why you made a certain pick, don't write something that might look like you're telling the next guy what to do.

We're all experienced owners. We don't want collusion.

Waiting to be screwed...story of my life.

Some of us waited years ...

It appears after a big cushion we have finally caught the clock, but we can't start the next round without this pick. That's unfortunate.

We can't really skip picks this round.

Probably not. Maybe in Round 4. I'm not sure the clock matters until we get there.
