hmm, a bit of a log jam at 1B with prince fielder and cecil cooper on the roster. how do you think molitor would fare at 3B?
I know you've already had other advice on this, but I had '93 Molitor playing some third base and he was bad enough defensively that I eventually benched him. He played about half the season and made 10 errors with an .868 F%.
no, i appreciate it. this kinda feedback makes me want to go with '79 molitor.

I haven't put the Astros together yet, but I already can see the Altuve/Biggio/Joe Morgan conundrum.

Yeah, but middle IF can play anywhere. Hell one of yours could even catch.

So the only question mark now is PHATJ's Twins team. If he's not in, do you want to field another AL team, skitch?

Awesome.

I'm gonna post the pitching rest rules here (they're in the OP as well) for people who are competing for the first time...

A pitcher needs THREE games worth of rest between starts. You will have the option to start a pitcher on two games' rest four times during the regular season. A pitcher cannot start on two games' rest in consecutive starts (he needs the full three games before he starts again). You have the option to start a pitcher on two games' rest twice in the postseason.

All pitching staffs are reset to full rest at the All-Star Break, the end of the season, and the start of each round of the playoffs.

So I have some errands to run, so if someone could make a quick FAQ's about the problems we've run into (bullpens, positions, rules, etc) post them here so he can see them.

I'm only on board with this if he promises to have Rickey Henderson on his team.
