In total, 29 unique pitchers, 48 unique hitters

Oddly this $90M roster was the last team I finished and I really labored over it. I kept reading comments about how this was the "easy" theme that came together so quickly for everyone but for whatever reason it was a struggle for me. I started out by building 2 different teams around Claude Hendrix . . . I love him at this cap but just couldn't get an entire staff that I liked. I finally decided it was too many innings at $40K/IP so "downgraded" to 1909 Ed Walsh. I'll be interested to see how the Hendrix teams perform.

Joe McGinnity selected 8 times, average rank 19.4
Stop stealing my secret cheap pitcher!

I noticed that too, but McGinnity actually isn't a great value anymore -- he's a good one, but not a great one. It's actually a great example of my comment in the other thread, where top owners are relying on names they know rather than value hunting.

For reference, I count 27 better priced pitchers between 150-200 IP who cost above $25k/IP

He's one of those overperformers, for reasons I don't understand. Maybe there's 27 better pitchers based on your computer analysis but baseball isn't played on a computer.
...No, wait. ...Yes it is.

Now if I see top players spot starting Jim Moroney I'll know I've been hacked.
