In order to help with your team building prowess, you will be given 5 lifelines! (Yes the theme is all about 5s!)
1: Twist a player exactly 5 years (your crappy 1925 Ruth can become a legendary 1920 Ruth)
2: Twist a player LESS than 5 years (your crappy 1922 Ruth can become 1921 or 1920 etc.)
3: Twist the first name (your 1995 Mike Maddux will obviously get a boost)
4: Twist the last name (your 1995 Greg Gagne will get a very nice boost)
5: Reroll the team

Just finished up, thanks Tulsa for another well run and fun draft.
Here's my rundown of my rounds:
Round 1
1978 Gary Carter - A+ arm with some pop, happy to snag this in the 1st
1927 Paul Waner - Outstanding start to the OF
1910 Russ Ford - absolutely ecstatic to land such an arm with no lifeline used
1975 Paul Blair - plan to use as PR or defensive replacement
1930 Jim Bottomley - lifeline to 1925 where he hits .367/.413/.578 to be my 1B

Round 2 initially rerolled, only useful piece was 1993 Rickey Henderson

Round 2
1977 Jose Cruz - decent OF
1890 Rasty Wright - in a pinch will be my DH if nothing else comes along with .413 OBP
1916 Tris Speaker- now 2 studs in OF with Waner
1951 Vic Raschi - innings guy
2016 Gavin Floyd

Round 3
1987 Ken Oberkfell - can play 3B or 2B, running out of time for IF
2016 Kyle Hendricks - solid to go with Ford
1964 Bob Humphreys
2012 Erik Kratz - backup C with .504 SLG
1972 Steve Barber - lifeline to 1972 Steve Carlton, giving me 3 big arms to bolster the rotation

Round 4
2020 Will Smith - not in need of another C but too good to pass up, may DH some
1990 Alan Trammell - needed SS, got one. Thought about twisting to 1993 his best year but wanted to save that just in case. Better defense in 1990 anyway
1916 Milt Stock- with only 1 round left , figured better grab a 3B to be safe
1992 Jim Austin
1959 Turk Lown

Round 5
1978 Willie Stargell - gives me some pop at DH
1916 Buck Herzog - solid defender for IF versatility
1972 Steve Barber
1913 Walt Dickson - making sure we have enough innings
2014 Alexei Ramirez to 2014 Jose Ramirez to 2017 Jose Ramirez - the just about perfect guy I needed with 2 lifelines left to sure up the infield

Ultimately the bullpen is weak but we are happy with the overall team and how we played out the lifelines
$129,230,274 with a lot of wasted PA
