Stupid Pet Strato Tricks

I often try to create teams that do only one thing really well and see how it works out. My last kick to was put together some teams to try to set the team walks record, which they both did:

https://365.strat-o-matic.com/team/1707820 (1982 team that walked 904 times and got 91 wins)

This strategy ended up working pretty well really. Both made the playoffs and the 82 team made the finals.

My latest attempt is to to create a team with the lowest batting average possible and yet still be good enough to win. I only drafted guys with no bpsi chances and near the maximum number of bphr chances and play in a park with very low bpsi splits anyway. So far, it's actually working surprisingly well. I horrible on the road, but I'm keeping my head above 500 in a very tough division while batting .182 and easily leading the league in Ks:

Remember there are MANY magic formulas, and the fun here is to try to create your own.

Any other crazy ideas out there that worked?

I love what you are doing, I see so many guys play a dozen teams in the same parks drafting the same players over and over. Or you get the guys drafting the all injury team trying to get an edge. It's fun to try something unique or just to experiment. I have often tried to get a super SB team, or high HR team or high AVG team,etc. But none of that really qualifies as odd.

Here is a uniques twist that won for me in 2020. A team designed to crush left handed pitching even though you only face 25-30% lefties. And it won the chamipionship!
