Cheetah League Chat - Waivers Sun

Yeah I suspect that I will have cheap hitters or hitters with a lot of injuries to pick from, so I think I will be in same place as Gary but for pitchers, so I will get all the pitchers I want but likely none of the hitters I want. It will be interesting to see how this plays out and if order correlates with wins. My initial thought was that hitters early will perform better than pitchers early, but we shall see what happens. I suspect the hitters parks will go early and pitcher parks go later.

Another theme league I would try is to draft by position instead of one list of players, this may have been done previously but I have seen this done outside of SOM and has worked well. The randomizer for 26 positions is difficult but could be done so that everyone's average position is approximately the same, ranking the positions for each manager plays into this as well.

Did that already, and there is a matrix where you get each draft position once over 12 rounds, you can check it out here:

I am the originator of that theme.

Now help me out here: A cheetah is that green animal with a shell on its back?



These early picks are EASY. It will get tough down in the middle and end once the top teams have cherry-picked

As we used to say in Bensonhurst: Not for nuthin' Just sayin. . .

JimZ needs to pick his park ASAP please.

I will be posting picks before 11:30 a.m. EST. Probably earlier. . .

Hope this doesn't make me a "Green Cheetah"

I have to take Mrs Jeep to Doctor so I can't update lists right now.

ALL LISTS UPDATED THRU SPLINTER'S PICKS.

Dale - please pick your park damit

Lists Updated Again

NOW we are in "cheetah" territory.

Would be sooo cool to wrap the pitcher selections up by end of day tomorrow.

Ok. In the <i>pitcher round</I> I pick before:

GaryCook -
Geekor
JimZ
Paul Long
Stoney

This means that I will have a vastly greater choice of pitchers at my disposal.

I am willing to trade some lucky guy ONE of my pitcher picks for the right offensive player. We would work out the picks and swaps within both the letter and spirit of the rules.

This gives us both a chance to upgrade.

If anyone wants to do the reverse of this with me, I will listen to all offers.

Hope this passes muster with His Jeepness.
