That is, best medium priced or cheap pitchers for a small ballpark (low HRs). Your thoughts, comrades? ;)

$100 mil, just drafting now so not sure about how many bomber parks are out there. Thanks for considering. ;)

Sadecki has no BPSI so he is a good cheap option.

I've also had success with cheap Hughson and also Chet Brewer.

More expensive options I like are Tiant and Herb Score.

Kind of funny you mentioned Sadecki, Tiant and Score. I drafted a team the other night for Forbes '57 with those three guys. Also drafted Randy Johnson. Of course thats going to leave me with a pop gun offence.

Two old standbys from ATGs past ... Kaat and Boyd. Still getting the job done.

I notice a lot of people use Higbe (in all kinds of parks), and I keep trying with him, but so far he's a bust for me.

As in "Oil Can" Boyd, or is that some other Boyd.

And isn't there a couple of Kaats ("in the yard, life used to be so hard" - sorry I digressed to a CSN tune from the '70s)?

Which one (if there are two)?

Ok, now I'm questioning what you mean by "small park"

Is that a small park where it's easy to hit home runs out of?

Or where you play small ball - singles, doubles, triples, etc?
