Lofton vs Edmonds

[motherscratcher]

I've used Fernandez a bunch of times. He wasn't available to me post waivers, but I was lloking to try someone different anyway.

I came out of the draft with Oscar Charleston and Bonds. I thought that was too much to devote to 2 players in a $100m league. Maybe I should have kept them both.

sdajr - Why do you have $15m unspent on that team? some kind of theme?

Keep Charleston next time. Barry + Oscar is the perfect combo for a place like League Park, especially because Charleston's got a slight tilt vs. lefty pitchers. You can always go cheap at shortstop or catcher, by getting a good fielder at the former and a positive clutch or hit-and-run guy at the latter. Or you could save money with a Johnny Evers at 2B.

Those premium lefty bats are key in your park.

As it is, you should do okay, so don't stress it. If you can, pick up a bigger bat at first base. Jim Bottomley usually does well for me in a park like that and there should be numerous others available. Good luck!

Here's a current League 34 team doing okay for me:

I went all the way with this League 34 crew:

Is Edmunds a 15 game injury risk with 599 AB+BB ?

Yes.[/quote:29da3f0bd7]

Ouch...but thanks.

What's retarded is that he was hit by like 15 pitches and had 20 some odd sacs.

So, he was 600 PA durable. Just not in Stratville.

140M no surprise--I dont know if I would use him under all conditions there. But for Dunn and many times League, he is a decent value. Did his part here at 100m

and here at 80M with 46 XBH...both teams at top of division

Well, Edmonds hit 5 HRs in the first 6 games :D

I did consider keeping both Charleston and Bonds, but like I said, it seemed too much to devote $28mil to 2 players. Maybe I'm wrong on that one.

Of course, Ruth was and still is available. It's too late now because the season already started, but I could have had an outfield of Bonds, Ruth, and Charleston. I kind of wish I had done that. It might have ended up a disaster, but heck if it wouldn't have been a load of fun.

Fun. But probably not a winner. Exactly. But chicks dig the long balls.
