That's fine. I wouldn't have the heart to skunk Schwarze twice in the same night.

Sorry for the delay...

Picking 8th is tough, but this actually works out perfectly. I needed a big-inning pitcher to replace Robin Roberts in the rotation. Roberts went 14-17, 7.29 ERA for my 101-win team. He allowed 69 HRs in 285 innings. Meanwhile, Feller went 21-14, 5.76 ERA for thejuice6's team that went 75-87. He only allowed 19 HRs in 295 innings. Not sure why juice left 100+ innings on the table (Feller threw 391 innings in 1946).
