And yet Verlander's ERC# is 1.42 while Johnson's is 1.47. Just search the 2011 guys by ERA#, there are over 51 below 1.80 and 77 below 2.00. There's something seriously messed up going on.

There is an adjustment to the ERC formula that's supposed to be made for ERC's under 2.2 I think, maybe under 2. I bet they aren't doing that.

Well, the thing is, their unadjusted ERCs appear to be way off, as I noted in the linked thread. Comparing ESPN's ERC numbers to WIS's going back through the years, they're very, very close to each other. This year they're waaaaay off.

There are a couple interesting players on the farm now, but otherwise it's pretty barren. The future payroll is going to suck unless you don't re-sign any of your free agents. A number of guys have taken huge hits in the offseason, and reduced what I thought would be 5 type A's into 1 type A. This team is on a downswing for sure.

I've somehow made it to the 2nd round of rule V, despite having awful pitching. I get to play rbow, who has the best team in the league. I'm going to lose in the 2nd round for the 3rd straight time in about 2 weeks. At least it's not to Pecota.

I like how we all proved tzentmeyer wrong hours ago and he hasn't acknowledged anything. Think the 2011 players are gonna need to be redone.

Judging by his response times I wouldn't be shocked if he just hasn't seen it yet. The good news is that we at least did figure out what's wrong.

Based on previous years, if you can get that team through the WS you'll have a good shot of making round 2. Obviously your margin of error is pretty small, though.

toadee posted:Im working on a special surprise too, hopefully done sometime next week. If all goes well, I can at least give goons a login to a php page where you can submit sql queries to a database filled with WiS spreadsheet data from open leagues, including splits, pitcher 2b/3b per 9, gb/fb info, etc! So this is looking like maybe next week now. Had some weird issues with the db that I think was caused by some odd database corruption, anyhow, running the import now and its looking pretty good, I'll have to check data integrity later today when it gets in then make up some little page for us to interface with it next week.

Sparky manages to get my starting pitcher ejected in the third inning for arguing balls and strikes as a hitter in one of the most important games of the WIS Championship. I'm going to end up losing like 50 or 60 points to the leaders from these playoffs.

It's Addie at 94% in game 7. Even if I beat you I'm probably going to get trashed in the WS since Addie's gonna be running on fumes.

My rule V Giants keepers are McCovey, Kevin Mitchell, Bonds, Marichal, and Gaylord. That seems to be in line with past legs, but I think I may get some grief for not protecting Schmidt or Lincecum.

Why would you go Gaylord over Schmidt? Innings shouldn't be a concern, the Giants have a lot of guys who are good longmen/back-end starters that won't be picked, like Scott Garrelts and Atlee Hammaker.

Garrelts is actually one of the more common Giants picks in the 3rd round but that's beside the point.

Virgil Lewis (Gleeman World 1) is my pride and joy. 100 career homers and counting in his age 22 season. .313/.395/.584 and 104 HR in 1,423 career ABs, .340/.430/.637 with 30 HR in 388 AB this season, his second full and third total.

Game 5 of the ToC with my S16 team, I've got 2004 Jason Schmidt going up against 1974 Steve Renko of all people  The sad thing is I'm going to get destroyed, there's like a voodoo curse on Schmidt in the ToC: http://www.whatifsports.com/slb/Boxscore.aspx?gid=15860208&pid=2&pbp=0&tf=12.95
