This is my first time trying the 60's game. What are the top cards and/or values for each position? I've played the mystery card before for the 70's and know more or less what to look for - the 60's game cards seems to play differently and the pricing seems kinda weird to me - any thoughts? Thanks

The waiver players aren't as deep in positions as 70s, so you want to try to draft good the first time. SS position lacks depth and 2nd base lacks depth. I am not sure what you mean about pitchers? I think there are enough good *pitchers to go with a four man rotation. Starting pitchers went more innings in the 60s and deeper into a game, that is why you don't seem to have an abundance of RP with a ton of saves. There are good relief pitchers out there.

Also players doing well on my 60s team, about 105 games into season, Killebrew, Horton, Elston Howard, Norm Cash is doing OK - a lot of walks, Wilbur Wood, Tug McGraw.

Thanks - if anyone could post a link to their teams, succesful or otherwise, I'd appreciate it. I want to get an idea of how some teams are structured.
