Playing in Griff, Wrigley 29, Dunn and Forbes in division, rest is Y56, Dunn, Baker, Fenway 67, Dunn, Dod 77, Dome, Tiger 84.

Scott,

What's not to like? Great SP, good balance, D & overall good speed.
Team should do well.

sschu,

Walter Johnson is a nice value in a pitchers park, I've been using him a little bit lately and he's done a pretty solid job. Diamonddope him .....

Looks like you're gonna pick your spots for your 4th starter? What happens if you have two series in a row in a hitters park? Wilks might get pounded. Just a thought.

The team is very solid, I'm just a little worried about that #4 spot.

Sschu,

I try to comment on all Forbes/Griffith teams that I see and offer my advice. I like to think I do well in these 2 stadiums. With that being said, I am having a hard time making any suggestions on how to change your team. Maybe add M Cvengros to your 4th starter rotation? Other than that, I do not see anything to do with this team.

I'll have a Yankee 56 team I might ask for your advice on if you do not mind come tomorrow. I wish I could give you more help here but in all honesty it is not needed.

I think you posted this team because you wanted to show off 8)

Boss,

LOL! Showoff is not what I had in mind .... :)

Actually I do not play "extreme" smallball that much, so it seems to befuddle me when I try. I like to play at Forbes, but with mid priced pitchers and good hitting. Actually I was going for a team with 4 expensive SPs, but missed out on a few in the draft.

Glad to help you on your Y56, please let me know. Just remember, even LH power, RH OBP, value SPs. :)

It is really hard to get the 4 stud SP these days. The closest I came to was getting Brown, Pfeister, Koufax, and Covelski. Here is the team:

Once you did not get the pitchers you wanted you were smart in going for a little more hitting. If you have Musial and Cuyler you can't really afford 4 stud starters.
