TSN_47563 - 2003 League - Chat Thread

My first 2003 league in many a month ... hopefully I'll do well. :)

So who wants to post their top 5 before the league is full. :wink: :lol:

[ArrylT]

Been so distracted didnt even notice league had filled & waivers had run! :shock:

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???

[ArrylT]

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.
