No I still enjoy the Super League a great deal. I've just lost the maze to actively participate... I'm just not willing to mount Marauder's road.

Fielding percentage, range and TZ. What else should I use? The fact that he won gold gloves IRL in 1994 and 1995 at ages 36 and 37?

Fine, he's above average. His arm and range are below a lot of other SL 3B, but his fielding rating is higher.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think the first round skipping rules might be a bit more relaxed because of how important the picks are, so there would be more time given to everybody to make their important picks.

Then again, that might just be something I just made up on the spot. It makes sense to me, though.

That's entirely possible! There's also the feeling of "there's no need to rush because the season just ended and we're not all whining about how long the draft takes yet" too. I will confess that my anxiousness to make picks might be out of proportion to everyone else's.

technically speaking they are less relaxed as in the past missing your clock in DD round 1 meant we declared the team abandoned. Also in the last draft we skipped people during the first round.

In other words TMmadman should draft.

Um. I actually thought Plimoth was a fun jokey gimmick team to flesh out the EC. I hadn't looked at the draft sheet because I thought it'd be a month before I had to.

Well, it can just as well be a fun jokey gimmick team in the Sub-Par. Or we could have... the Flames survive, I guess? That's an option.

Hey McFreeze, would it be possible for the Forgettables to switch to the non-DH league for the Sub-Par? If I need to stay in the DH league for numbers reasons it's not a big deal either way but it would probably be ideal to switch.

Given the players in the draft the answer to that question should be Pitcher.

Uh, huh. I only made the Fillers because the PreMos made it an odd number of teams.

And one (of many) reasons I declined the machos was because the PreMos and Fillers took a few good feeders.

Oopsie.

As an aside, the premos are a fascinating team and I do wish you could carry them on a little bit. Turn their errors at their home stadium down to 25 as an experiment next season.
