Ah, I found it. This is my first 2003 league, so it's somewhat of an experiment.

Hopefully this will be a great league. I have not done so well in 2003, maybe turn it arround here.

alot of offensive parks only one pac bell, one comeria, and one shea.

Does pitching ever win???

Good question. I had a couple of decent pitching based squads in 2003, but none that ever won titles. I won 1 in US Cellular and 1 in Dodger. Only won 2 titles in 2003 and only made the playoffs 11x in 38 teams, one of my least successful 200x card seasons.

I have almost always gone with a 4 man starting staff, have you had any luck with a five man staff, and i have also tried to get a good defensive catcher.

Both my 2003 championships were won with 5 man rotations. I tend to find 5 man rotations worked better in hitters parks while 5 man rotations worked better in pitchers parks, at least in 2003. However other owners experiences may differ. :wink:

At least I'm in a division of right thinkers. Well, with the exception of the Yosemite Glaciers in Coors.

It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.
