No ratings disk or book...Just reading the cards and having a pretty good eye...But it usually takes me a couple of teams to get my feet wet. Typically I go just over or under .500 with my 1st 2 teams. Then I begin winning and making the postseason.
I will say one thing, I thought the 05' set was tough. I really belabor my player choices in this one. After studs like Arod, Roberts and a few others, there aren't a lot of really attractive options that are easy choices.
The fielders cannot hit and the hitters cannot field. I am thinking the best way to go is to take the power hitters - who have little speed, but good OB. Then hope for 3 run HRs. Not necessarily my style of play, altho I know a lot of players have made careers out of that style.
Pitching this year is as deep as last year was shallow. I think the drop in hitting is definitely an indicator of just how much steroid use there was in prior years.
I am going to be setting up another LOTO warmup league and inviting former LOTO players who did not play here 1st. Then I will open it up to the rest if we don't fill. I have 2 credits in addition to my initial Team at Dolphin Stadium. So I may actually do a 3rd warmup as well. Just want to get some of the LOTO crowd used to some of the new players before we commence the 06' Tournament.
Thanks everyone for playing... :wink: Robert
