John F Coleman will be on somebody's roster in every single league - guaranteed.

OK, maybe not $200M leagues, but a pricing model based on usage would certainly overstate his value - if anyone actually allowed him to toe the rubber.

48 losses and 538 innings pitched. He's a stud! :D

John F. will be a regular feature on Munich Man's all bomber teams.

And it's unfair to be surprised at both the 48 losses and 538 IP. Pretty much anybody that would pitch 538 innings in one year would lose 48 games, too. If his arm didn't fall off, anyway.

Some curious cards.

Freddie Lindstrom '30 has 8 ballpark HR against lefties, but his only straight HR is a 1-15 split at 1-4.

Bob Thurman 57 has 10 pure HR and 8 ballpark HR against RHP for the low, low price of $o.69 million. He will be used in all leagues.

Marv "Who Dat?" Gudat has 17.3 hits, 23 BB, and an HBP against RHP for only $0.94 million (and the walks and HBP carry over to the LHP side where he has 12.2 hits).

His card? Or just in general?

Not sure what was accomplished by adding the new Van Mungo card. Nearly identical seasons and salaries. :roll:

What a snoozer of an update. Not tempted to play in the least.
