If we don't get a Clemens/Clemens matchup, I'm gonna be pissed.

Just so the new guys know, you need to go to whatifsports.com, create an account, and put your team together. Then let us know in here what your username and team name is.

Nope. Go to the Sim Matchup menu and select Dream Teams. It'll let you create one there.

You can put them wherever you want, but they might make a ton of errors if they are out of position. I remember someone using Biggio at C but using one of his 2B years and he was a disaster behind the plate.

you have to draft at least one legit player at each position. so just draft harper as a bench guy and you can put him wherever you want on the field and in your lineup

we have manny playing right instead of left and even that's not a complete abomination as you'd expect

heh, '87 molitor is a DH with D- field/range. probably won't do so well at the hot corner. :lol:

Playing people out of position can be devastating. I've had players consistently put up two errors a game.

if that's so, i'll probably axe 1973 george scott in favor of 1979 paul molitor just to get him on the field. an all time brewers team can't exist without him somewhere at the top of the lineup!
