I am noticing at least several of those pitchers do not have many ground ball As on their cards.

Marc P, thank you for your list!!!

Steve F.
I know how good you are and how you love them Dodgers. I am thinking of using the 1965 Don Drysdale SP* with four SP without asterisks in combination with a super reliever and two pretty good backup relievers. Do you like that cheap Drysdale card for the money (5.04 million)? Thanks and good luck in all your leagues!

I didn't see him mentioned so forgove me if he has already been mentioned. Dizzy Trout 45 (2.39 mil) his card doesn't look that great but he has consitantly done well for me. In a pitching park he can give you 5 or 6 good innings, so if you have a good pen he works well. I have also used him with success in righty power parks.

The low priced non* pitchers that have consistently pitched well for me over the years are.

Chief Bender 3.72
Hooks Wiltse 3.64
Claude Hendrix 3.50
Sal Maglie 3.35
Wild Bill Donovan 3.22

Wild Bill Donovan out pitches his price tag every time. Bill

Thanks! I have used a couple of those guys, including Wild Bill Donovan. Unfortunately this is a post WWII league, so I think some of those guys are not available to me this time around. I do appreciate the help.
