EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2005 I'll have to try and be online then. Al, one thing I was wondering: are stats going to be era-adjusted in some way? For example, if I pick a dead ball era hitter, am I going to be stuck with the fact that his career high for HRs in a season was 6? Or does the sim account for things like that? The stats are simply copied from the database with no immediate era adjustment. I will make adjustments to dead-ball era stars, raising their power stats and lowering their speed ratings, where applicable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2005 Hey guys, sorry I missed the chat. Had just got off a long shift at work and involuntarily passed out. Missed RAW and Ultimate Fighter too Thanks for making my picks Al, happy with them in general as you filled my needs, especially Dihigo as a util, but I'd like to make a couple changes. I'd like to swap Bob Lemon for Jimmy Key and Lee Smith for Orel Hershiser. I'm contemplating a switch on Delahanty, if I decide on that I'll post it in the next hour or so. cheers!

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2005 MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! I'm probably still going to swap on Delahanty, but I REALLY wanted Sheff there, so I'm pissed at myself for sleeping. Can't I just steal Sheff from whoever took him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted March 23, 2005 J.R. Richard.... that name rings a bell, but I'm having problems remembering the exact person. I think I saw a special of him on ESPN a while back, but that may have been someone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vern Gagne 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2005 He had like 3 really dominate years, and than like AL said suffered a stroke and his entire life sadly hit the skids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingPK 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2005 I was going to pick Radatz as kind of a tribute, along with his pretty good bullpen numbers. Would have been fun having him and Eckersley bicker about if Eck deserved the MVP in 1992 only pitching 80 innings. Get Rico Petrocelli in there challenging Eck to come to the studio and talk, and you have radio gold. Frequent WEEI listeners will remember that exchange. A few bits of it: Eck: "Dick, you're not my pal." Dick: "Aw, come on buddy." Eck: "You are beyond your *bleep*ing age." Rico: "Don't talk in the car.....I want you to come over here. We're right outside the ballpark." Eck: "Oh, Riiiico." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was right when trying to remember who it was. Is he still homeless, or has he gotten back on his feet? I've done a few searches on him, but nothing that really gives any info.
