Not in a 100 or higher Million dollar league. Just too much great hitting out there. All stars and HOF'ers at every position. You can have good pitching and win, but you can't win with just good pitching (does that make sense?) :)

Would you, or anyone else, be up for a pitching theme? I was thinking of limiting the hitters. I did a league like this a couple of times a while back. I was thinking maybe limiting the hitters to say 3 million or 4 million apiece. Anyhow please chime in and throw out some ideas.

Yes. The question is a misnomer.

It does make sense. And my original question was a misnomer. What the question should have been was something like "is it possible to get this kind of season out of a stud SP?

I forgot about this team. Although there are no $10M starters.

There was actually a lot of pitching centric teams in that league. More than usual.

Pitching seemed to work in a $60M league for me. I lost in the finals, but I spent about $34M / $26M. The group I play with is obsessed with doing unlimited or $200M salary caps, which makes pitching essentially useless.
