Thanks Maligned - my order is going through right now.

And of course, it's time for that annual message to please limit the #'s you share to one or two player cards, and even then consider whether it's worth it. We need to make sure those players who are paying $ for the ratings are getting their money's worth, and also we need to respect SOM's need to earn money by selling these.

very interesting. Tell us about some more players that you think are interesting. :)

Absolutely, schnoogens. That's why I didn't start copying and pasting. Good idea to remind people.

Lincecum looks like the top SP, as expected.
14.3 OB 9.7 TB vs. left
14.8 OB 10.9 TB vs. right
No ballpark HRs

The Robinson Tejeda card is even more strange than I thought it would be.
34.6 OB and only 4.2 TB vs. left; 17 OB and 0 TB vs. right
No ballpark HRs or SIs anywhere

Brought this up in the precard thread currently going on, but it would not suprise me in the least if Tejeda was made a R3 only by TSN and did not have his S5. They did this with Heilman and a few others over the last few years...

You may be right. But with 6 starts, he's going to be very, very difficult to ignore as a starter.

[LMBombers]

Kuo's 3 starts were ignored in the 2008 set.

Thanks !

Minimum of 4 starts needed for an S.
3 starts = R3
