To all, BDWard is in.. I mocked up the Cubs and decided to add Ernie Banks to the list.. if anyone has strong objections to this change let me know.. but after looking at how the team comes up to the 100 mil cap without Banks, I think this is the right thing to do.. welcome BDWard

I'm happy to be joining all of you for another go round.

2cityfan and his leagues rock!

I think the answer is yes - I have my team formed and that's what I did.

Good luck all - one more and we are a go!

Funny thing, I went to get my team's AD card filled out last night and started with the Mets before deciding to change to the Cards. So I used the change team name function. All seemed fine, then I finished the card and basically parked the team until we get this league going. Problem is when I go to look at my account and my teams and there are SIX Amazing Mets (my prior team name) listed and my credit balance has been reduced by 7 credits! I show 6 teams named Amazing Mets and one St. Louis Cardinals.

The powers that be are "working on it".... Trying to figure out what happened. Makes me VERY cautious about using the change team name function again! :? I am sure they will restore the credits, but WOW.

I just noticed that in addition to their usual lack of lefty power hitters, the expansion era Cubs have NO lefty relief pitchers. That's right NONE, NADA, NOBODY. Not a single one.

Good catch by 2cityfan to notice this and try to remedy the problem with Bill Henry, but Henry is no prize. $3.90 mil for 5 points in BP HRs vs. righties, plus another 3+ points in "natural" HRs?! In WRIGLEY?! Are you kidding me?! No wonder he never gets drafted.

Willie Hernandez where are you?
