It took me 7 teams, but I finally won my first championship.
I would like to thank all the folks who gave such excellent advice. Especially nevdully, Moriarty, danielz, JUMA, Munich Man and agabriel.
I was told to get Gary Carter...gave me the best thrown out SB percentage. Granted he only batted .217 (at Griffith), but excelled in the playoffs, batting .314.
Told to get Cleon Jones... had my team best season BA .317/ Playoffs .351
Told to keep Nellie Fox at 2B, even when he was only batting .217. Finished the season at .268/ playoffs [b:6e0905ae47].472[/b:6e0905ae47].
I thought I knew the game, used to play the cards for about 5 - 10 years, awhile back. But wasn't too successful online. Thought I would check the message boards and "participate." Low-and-behold, I win. You guys rock, thanks again. Now maybe I can take what I learned and raise my 2 stars up to 4 or 5.

congratulations... being myself a newbie (no seasons finished), I do have a respect for what you accomplished so quickly!
And I too appreciate the "board help" that the vets offer, always detailed, always sincere, and typically well-founded advice!

I think the key was joining a league where you didn't have to play "nevdully, Moriarty, danielz, JUMA, Munich Man and agabriel."
Congrats!!!
