Well I don't know of any good way to go about picking it manually so it will be randomly selected 30 minutes before the draft. Unless you can think of something....I was thinking about drawing names out of a hat but that only works if you guys trust me.
we trust you. But that's doing a lot of work. Just do a random draft and it'll be the same thing in terms of draft order.
Oh and there's 2DL spots.
And can you explain why you're against walks and holds?
It's not as if we have on base percentage either. So if a manager has someone like adam dunn who's a lousy hitter but has excellent patience you're not gonna reward his manager? Or, say if you have someone like david ortiz who gets BB on purpose then that's not gonna be productive for his manager either.
In terms of holds, there's only so many closers out there. 30 to be exact. You give each manager 2 RP spots and that's 24 closers gone already. Then 6 managers or less will get the extra 6 closers and the rest of us will struggle in the SV category for the whole season unless someone goes down and we are quick to grab 1 off the wire. I think with holds it balances the bullpen demand a lil bit.
lucky b*****d
