The Sultans of Swing: 1920-1934 - DRAFTING

Here are the current standings (sent by e-mail tonight), awarding all playoff teams in Giants of every color the minimum playoff point total of 3 points:

Current Rankings Points
RJNEWMAN 200
GORDIE HOWE 187
RICK SMITH 184
LMBOMBERS 181.5
ALLSTARINC 174
EHLEKEV 166
RISDEN 163
KRAZYKAT 157
KENHUTCHINGS 152.5
GFDWARF07 152
MUSIAL6 144
DOUG TUCKER 142



So the draft order is the inverse:

1. Doug Tucker
2. Musial6
3. gfdwarf07
4. kenhutchings
5. krazykat
6. risden
7. ehlekev
8. allstarinc.
9. LMBombers
10. Rick Smith
11. Gordie Howe
12. rjnewman

Divisions again will be randomized. No DH. Use prior spreadsheet Randy sent out for player list.

No particular rush to get started, but we can whenever folks are ready. As always please let me know right away if you see any point total issues.

Thanks,
Dan

There are apparently only 11 ballparks within this year range. I am inclined to add all the NeL parks to add more variety for this round. Any thoughts otherwise? Another option would be to add just one park and vie for all 12 in the draft.

Please state you preference:

a) Add all NeL parks

b) Add one park for a total of 12 available

B) Add one park Rick

That would be the way I would lean. It would be nice to see which parks are available and their characteristics.

IMHO, the most logical choice would be to add one of the unused parks from the recently completed draft, perhaps the one closest to the year 1935. Or add one of the unused NeL parks.
