great insight, lucky. i have a few comments, specific to our division (which i paid most attention to).
my team: more of a clarification, but the average ballpark in this league comes out to like a 9.5-9.5-10.5-10.5 for my team (keeping in mind the 81 games at home)...so maybe it will be affected on the road, but i still think that average ballpark rating is not that low.
your team: not sure how your team is suited well for playoffs. 3 * sp's arent well suited for playoffs. in fact, 3 * sp's are one of the worst pitching configurations for playoffs. 1 * sp is obviously the best, then 2 or 4 in my mind, then 3. i'd love to hear your argument on why this is a good rotation for playoffs.
kaviksdad's team: just an interesting note...you said "weak defense in the corners (lf, 1b, 3b) will cost some games" -- i love this quote because i am HUGE proponent of stacking the corners with bad defense and i think this philosophy in a big park is genious. i think the positives you get out of the bigger bats far outweighs the defensively liability on the corners.
with all that being said, my team isnt doing so hot, so i guess its all for sh1t. :)
