Which is also badass. Maybe buy Lightning Bolt on vinyl for the lucky winner?cutuphalfdead wrote:They get bragging rights.

I wouldn't be too concerned, your team is on borrowed time.

Post-strike (1995-2013)
LCS era (1969-1994)
Post-integration(1947-1968)
Live ball era (1919-1946)
Dead ball era (1901-1918)
Pre-AL era (1885-1900)
And then a champions tournament pitting all six winners against each other.
And then the winner of our champions tournament faces the winner of stip's Best Of Decades tournament of champions.
And then the winner of that gets a special RM Mystery Box.

Re: Post-Strike Baseball Tournament: First Round!
Damn, I wanted him. I was thinking about him in one of the middle rounds, but I already had Thome at first base. I guess I forgot, or I would've taken him for my right hander off the bench, instead of Carlos Quentin. I can't believe no one took him.BigRedLedbetter wrote:I'm too lazy to look but did anyone draft Derrek Lee? Looking back at old stats and his 2005 was stellar.
46 HR, won a gold glove, batting title and led the league in slugging, OPS, hits and doubles...7.7 WAR as well
Please consider voting for me

Re: Post-Strike Baseball Tournament: First Round!
Next tourney do we wanna do the LCS era tourney or the we all pick a team and pick the best players from those teams tourney first?
I have already been looking at stats for my all Rangers team. Despite only 42 years I dig my squad. A rotation of Jenkins, Ryan, Perry and Hough would be pretty damn good.

I always really liked D Lee. I also liked Hee-Seop Choi who they traded for him. Reminded me of Jim Thome. Thought Choi would at least make a few all star games.The Argonaut wrote:Damn, I wanted him.

I strongly considered Lee for several rounds, but my late run of Cardinals put an end to that thought.

Your all time Cardinals team would match up well with any other team.Kaius wrote:I strongly considered Lee for several rounds, but my late run of Cardinals put an end to that thought.

Re: Post-Strike Baseball Tournament: First Round!
If people still want to do another tournament at some point after this, I'd be down for either. I guess it depends on how we all feel about drafting. I mean, it's fun, but it's also super time-consuming. The all-time franchise team tournament allows us to skip the draft, which is either gonna be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on your view.BigRedLedbetter wrote:Next tourney do we wanna do the LCS era tourney or the we all pick a team and pick the best players from those teams tourney first?
I had Derrek Lee on my list, but I knew deep in my heart that I wasn't gonna use a season by a Cub on my team.BigRedLedbetter wrote:I always really liked D Lee.
