Discussion on A proposed Rule Change

[HollywoodLeo]

You legit scare me with the way you can manhandle this league. You're like Bill Hoodie.

Now is the perfect time for you to strike before Kingdom rises.

[Mach]

for 3 years then my team becomes a decrepit corpse forcing me to sell.

[Kingdom]

Manhandle he says

This is the only league i havent won a world series. Although Dave won a few with my roster. I'm just another team up in hurr.

You actually had a lot to do with my success. You traded Heilmann and Dickey for Garon, which set me up with the number one pick to net Teddy.

[Porter]

I won 2 ('36 and '37).
One as a WC and a #1 seed.

In a 8 year span.

2034 92-70 (I won the last 16 games of the season and missed out by 1 game in the WC Race)
2035 97-65 (WC, lost in round 1)
2036 116-46 (Won WS over Molina's dominant Texas Rangers)
2037 95-67 (WC, Won WS while only losing like 2 playoff games)
2038 123-39 (Lost in LCS to Milwaukee 4-2)
2039 120-42 (Lost to Kingdom's Rockies in a 1st round sweep, still pissed at OOTP for that one)
2040 107-55 (Lost to Phillies in round 1)
2041 91-71 (This was the year I lost a 30 yr old Steven Hill to a career ender that crippled the dynasty)

ERA's during that span: 4.17, 4.10, 3.41, 4.00, 3.34, 3.18, 3.47, 3.76

[Porter]

Speaking of Porter's Cardinals, I'd love to see that team match up against my Royals. Would be an interesting series.

I think your offense was deeper than mine. Your best hitter is Williams which was better than Steven Hill, Robert Shaul and Donald Starrett.

I had a 3-time Cy winner in Hernando Martinez, Joe Arnold (who had 1 Cy Young before Hernando), Todd Crissman and Bill Capra (who later became Martin Fyfe) who were both better than Shocker (he was basically Fyfe in ratings, maybe a little better)

My bullpen had 4 closers and 2 setup men. I think I would have enough on the pitching side to contain that offense.

[Trendy Bastard]

At one point Shocker was 10-10-8, I think. Can't forget I also had Lee Meadows(7/8-9-10) and Larry Morley(8-10-9).

My bullpen has mostly been thrown together every season, outside of Sills.

[Porter]

Martinez 6-10-10
Arnold 6-10-9
Crissman 8-10-9
Capra 10-8-6/Fyfe 10-9-6

My bullpen at the time was
Magglio Gonzalez 10-8-10
William Tanaka 10-9-10
William Carp 8-10-9
Bill Savory 10-8-6 (and he could have started)
Martin Saleem 10-8-8 (towards the end)
Nick Flynn 6-10-8 (towards the end of the run)

[Shadow29]

Clearly you should blame the dicks who neither buy nor sell. How dare they.

[Kingdom]

Garon was a beast.

[Slyder]

Wait, is it not apparent that my post saying I'm afraid of KC is in jest? I'm not waiting for KC to die, just as an fyi.

In my defense I shut down my sarcasm meter for it to recharge after dealing with retail customers all day yesterday.

[Slyder]

You can see where I tried to emulate pitching staffs around Burdette and Alexander...

Martinez 6-10-10
Arnold 6-10-9 *became a Dodger*
Crissman 8-10-9
Capra 10-8-6/Fyfe 10-9-6

My bullpen at the time was
Magglio Gonzalez 10-8-10 *Jerk was a Dodger and name is mud*
William Tanaka 10-9-10 *another jerk who was a Dodger then became a Card*
William Carp 8-10-9
Bill Savory 10-8-6 (and he could have started)
Martin Saleem 10-8-8 (towards the end) *greatest Dodger closer in my run*
Nick Flynn 6-10-8 (towards the end of the run)
