I dont know who to start. I've won 3 straight using Right handed starters, so I dont want to go Newhouser or Lolich. Morris I started once and that was a hail mary. Mullin was very very bad for me early on, but numbers wise might have been the best pitcher overall. I dont know!


ugh.
If you make the wrong decision, the city of Detroit will criticize you until next year's tournament.
since there are two game sevens going, is there a way to put starters in the pen to be used as go for broke relief if needed?

Unfortunately, no. If What if has a flaw. Its that it loves the Royals. If it has another flaw, its how it manages bullpens and pitching staffs. It will inexplicably pull starters with 2 ER and 84 pitches, and then in the next game let a guy give up 14ER and throw 152.

Regardless of the outcome it's been fun.

At least we have the Lions. I have been a fan since I was a kid in the Barry days. Cory Schlesinger did his student teaching at my HS when I was a Senior.

So you guys are all in outrage over Boston Pedro 5th, but no outrage over the league's OPS leader not even making Asher's ballot?

Buncha hypocrites.

That actually would be hilarious if an actual baseball writer was running his team.

I'll be back tonight to better explain why I chose others over Cash. I think it had something to do with that he only had 70 hits, no stolen bases, and unimpressive power numbers. walks do not an impressive player make. I'm honestly surprised anyone outside of skitchland did vote for him.
Please consider voting for me
