Brock / Coleman

PostWed Jan 27, 2016 12:48 am

I finally tried my Brock/Coleman platoon. Bit of a disaster. Curious has anyone had any success at any cap using the 118 steal 74 Brock card? If so can you post a link to team? Ditto for both the Coleman cards.

And to be clear looking for teams where they were starters, not pinch runners off the bench. Thanks in advance.

Team based theme league. Decided to go cheap somewhere, and Coleman was my choice.

Coleman came in 2nd in the league in runs scored. Not too shabby for a 2M player.

I went overboard on stolen bases. Once I got started with that on my mind just could not stop myself.
I also had KC bullpen fresh on my mind when put team together. Got carried away there too.
Probably should not have mixed the two themes.

For most part happy with Brock and Coleman performance. They are being platooned.
Would like to try that experiment again but target better supporting cast.
So hoping to see how others have used them. What they were surrounded with? Top or bottom of order?
Were they platooned or just tossed out there every day.

Thinking maybe if I scaled back on the bullpen some or used a more reasonably priced second baseman next time I could fill in some high BA/doubles guys for middle of lineup.

Brock and Coleman are 2 of my favorite Cardinal players ever which is primary motivation for using them.

Thanks. That Wrong stuff team had added bonus of using McGee. An added bonus.
Looks as well like I may want to try my next Brock/Coleman experiment at 80 mil instead of 100. Though that vsick team at 110 looks promising. Maybe a combined Brock/Coleman/Cardinal team is what I should try soon.

Thanks guys for the ideas.
