To be honest, I didn't even know he used a different Pedro until he first mentioned it in this thread.
When I was drafting the team pretty much everyone had an obvious year to take. Pedro had a coin flip between 1999 and 2000. I just went with 2000 so we could experience both. Didn't think it would even make a difference, which is why I didn't even bring it up. I think I also did a different year for Boggs and Clemens. Clemens turned out to be no difference and Boggs was a big improvement.
Next year I'd pretty much use what we did this time with 1999 Pedro and some bullpen tinkering.

He gave me some ideas, I basically agreed with all of them, and we had our team. We did this last year it was pretty much common sense.

Finally got around to entering in all of my playoff stats. My ALDS MVP is Doc White. 2-0, 1.00 ERA, 2 complete games (game three, when they were down 2-0 in the series, and game seven). Luke Appling would be a distant second (.448/.515/.552).
Remember how I said my team was basically unstoppable since I settled on my current lineup? That's why I've been afraid to move my best hitter, Duke Snider, from the five spot back to the three spot. I'm pretty sure the only reason why Mike Piazza is hitting so well as the cleanup hitter is because he has a lot of protection with Duke Snider hitting behind him. No changes shall be made unless things get desperate, but I think things look good right now.
