Left some proxies for Sykes, as I will be out most of the day. Should be back around 4-5pm EST. Hopefully, Sykes will get to use a couple of them :)

Mav up.

YF, do you remember how to make a pick? :D

I have interest in Hendu. I have Grubb, Milner, Puhl and Nettles. Right now I have 3-4 platoons established.

Nettles is a fan favorite in Hoboken, so it may be tough to move him as Wallach slides to 1B to start next season.

A reminder that your 84 AD card can include free agents from the end of the 83 season. That is, players who are eligible for 84 but not on a roster at the end of 83. (Eligible = first year, 84 or after; last year, 84 or later). And of course, 0.75 players are all free agents.

Here's how you look for free agents (2 methods):

- enter the Back to 83 league from "Your Other Teams"
- paste: [url]http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/80s/trade/release_pickup_option.html[/url]
- search away - the FA's listed were all FAs at the end of 83 (keep the list sit at "available" and not "all")

Or (for T.Rich, who didn't have an 83 team):

- go to: [url]http://www.strato.berce.us/[/url]
- enter your user id# from 83, or enter 50940 (Dingo's)
- search away (again remember to use "available")

I'm back, Sykes, so please disregard those proxies. I see we had another day of progress :? :x

Oh well, I guess I won't be picking until Monday, the earliest :cry:

BC, I did not forget HOW to pick. I just haven't had the OPPORTUNITY to pick....now watch me blow the pick

Here is my 80's players excel file. Right click on link below and select Save Target As...

There is a Hitters and a Pitcher worksheet. The columns labeled FY and LY are the first and last years on their card. You can use the autofilter drop down to select a year. This will be useful when looking for free agents during the season also .

85 looks pretty good. To bad we won't get there until 2008 with the way this draft is going.

YF, I downloaded your spreadsheet, but don't see FY/LY anywhere on it. Are you sure you uploaded/linked the right one?

by **YountFan** » Sat Oct 29, 2005 8:25 pm

I just grabbed it using the link and they are there.

Hitters: columns R and S
Pitchers: columns U and V
