Going 27-10 for a team that went 59-97 is just beyond absurd. They went 2-2 in his four no decisions, so effectively 50% of their wins came in games he started.

I went back and forth between typing his name and Steve Carlton's name in my reply multiple times before settling on Carlton.

I'm gonna go with a totally batshit crazy human being, who just happened to be one of the greatest pitchers ever, and in 1972 had one of the most fucking insane seasons any pitcher has ever had...
Steve Carlton.
I was gonna go with either Ripken or Carlton.

I thought Gooden might slip through the cracks a bit, but I knew with my draft position there was no way he would get back to me.

That season of Doc's was the only reason I wanted to be first overall.

When you pick a stadium, can you see the dimensions? I was thinking of picking Shibe Park, but the dimensions change drastically over the course of the years. I don't want the time when CF was 515ft.

It shows you dimensions and "park factors" or something when you sim a game. Shibe Park is 468 ft to CF... LF has a park factor of +2 (which I assume means increased offense to that part of the park) and everywhere else is 0.
