[quote:22d3415fce="Pjatscfy"]This is terrible. I was gonna take Alou, but I figured he be there for my next pick. I'm going to be fielding a minor league squad.[/quote:22d3415fce]
I am EREALLY glad you didn't take Alou - I had already lost 3 players from my original picks in the first round. Picking last in both rounds is going tobe painful - but just adds to the challenge -right. Have I said in the last 3 minutes that I hate the Braves ..............

[quote:dbfbcd4f51="Pjatscfy"]I know.....my brain is mush. I'm gonna have nightmares tonight about not getting Colavito.[/quote:dbfbcd4f51]

I'm not finding Colavito to be all that great. Here are his numbers compared to Canseco on my season 8 Yankee team that plays in Hilltop:

Name B P Def AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS E BA OBP SLG BAL
Colavito, Rocky R RF 2(-5)e9 265 38 58 5 1 18 52 42 42 0 0 2 .219 .323 .449 3R 7.28M
Canseco, Jose R RF 3(-2)e2 213 32 53 4 1 18 37 28 57 6 3 2 .249 .342 .531 1L 5.89M

So why did I take Colavito? :?

One small point of clarification on this league, please, JP: Are we restricted to post-WWII ballparks? Or can we spice things up a little by selecting from any of our assigned stadiums?

First time I played this and lo and behold they are not available Just 57 and 78 stadiums come up Have my team started already

Buster: If the old parks are available to us, all you'll have to do is simply reset the league style at the top of your draft page to include players from all eras, as we've done in the past. The minor annoyance: players in the entire SOM universe will be available to draft, but not to use.

[quote:21e78c89cf="jpgavin"]2. [b:21e78c89cf]Post WWII and expansion era [/b:21e78c89cf]
100mil / DH / waivers / 5-10-20 FA drops / Autodraft

The twist is that we use the post WW2 + expansion players and stadiums only... (2cityfan)

[/quote:21e78c89cf]

This was the rule as originally printed. Let's stay with the post WWII and expansion stadiums only. Besides, this will eliminate the risk of somebody winding up with a pre WWII player on their roster after the autodraft and playing part of their schedule with an ineligible player.
