I wanted to put together the best offense I could for Griffith. Lown was the best I could afford with the cash left. Never used him before...

Good and horrific experiences are welcomed...Thanks! :)

Turk "I didn't get Ron Taylor in my draft" Lown in extreme pitchers parks like Griffith (80M no DH leagues only):
IP - 11218.5
ERA- 4.19
WHIP - 1.43

For comparison, in EP parks:
Ron Taylor
IP - 12798.1
ERA - 3.92
WHIP - 1.34

Jerry Fosnow:
IP- 11272.6
ERA- 4.04
WHIP - 1.38

All are better overall than the higher priced Murphy, J. Hughes, and Caudill.

All will break our heart during the season.

5 seasons with Lown in Griffith or Forbes:
innings ERA Whip
115.1 6.09 1.73
131.1 3.02 1.44
156.2 3.85 1.46
106.2 3.71 1.59
98.1 3.11 1.61

And a total of 29 wins and 31 losses in those 5 seasons

Here is a link to a Baker Bowl team of mine used Lown a lot with good results. http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/atg2/team/team_other.html?user_id=31831

Thanks for the help guys. :D

For now, i went back to my original BP:

Nelson
Richert
Eastwick
Worrell

I have until Mon. night...so I'm sure I'll change my mind again. :wink:

That's a good pen.

Agree with PBTR, that's a great Griffith pen to begin with, don't worry about Turk.
