No objection here if Tom switches stadiums.

If BK and Mark have no objection, then I think Tom should be able to do it.

If they have an objection, then not.

The deadline is 10 p.m. Eastern, right? So we only got half the teams in today?

My squad is ready to go.

Just a reminder that I can't access the site at work. I'll check in the morning to see if the West is ready to join. If not, I'll join after work tomorrow.

I object!

Just kidding.

It doesn't matter what stadium you pick, I'm still going to smack you a$$ around this season.

The smack starts early!

Central Not Done?

Postby timothyseankelly » Fri Apr 21, 2006 3:39 am

My Bad...Looks like I sent it only to 2 of the 4 teams in the Central.
Meat, thanks for forwarding. :roll:

Tom, enjoy Dodger Stadium. Though today's dimensions do not perform anything like 1965 (Koufax is G-d), I hear the Dodger Dogs from Farmer Jack are pretty good.

Specialty at Cleveland's Jake (Pittsburgh too) - Pamani Bros Sandwiches:
A gut-busting concoction of cheesesteak, french fries, cole slaw, lettuce, tomato and fried egg - all slopped together between chunks of French bread.

Though turkey legs at Arlington and endemame at Safeco are both unique, nothing tops a Pamani bros sandwich.

Regarding Penngray's slip up on the Great American Ballpark rating:

With a "1" ballpark single rating:

(5/108)*(1/20) = .0023 ballpark singles per plate appearance

With a "4" ballpark single rating:

(5/108)*(4/20) = .0093 ballpark singles per plate appearance.

So, the difference is going to mean lefties would bat about .007 higher than expected from Penngray's rating. And that's just in 81 games at home, so a difference of .0035 over the course of the year. Even with a squad of all righty starters, lefties will probably just get a little over half of the opponents ABs, so the difference in opponents' overall batting average will be about .0018. And that assumes that everyone has ballpark singles on their cards, which is mostly but not universally true. All in all, it's probably not enough of a difference to be noticeable over the course of a single season.

Again, I have no objection to Tom taking Dodger Stadium. People should get what they expected to get during the draft.

I was just thinking about what the difference would be and thought I would pass along the information.

Heading to work now, I am hopeful we'll be ready for the West this evening.

Al, have no way of knowing if your calculation are correct, would begin to know how to even formulate such, but assuming they are, these ballparks make a whole lot less difference than we think they do. maybe I can give the ballpark tailor the day off once in a while to freshen up from his endless tasks of getting just the right amount of lh power hitters and rh singles hitters in the lineup for a given ballpark.
APB FOR ACURAL....once he's in the west should be in in plenty of time to fill for autodraft tonight.
