I could give a flying shit less about it personally. I'm happy with the team that I built. Unlike someone in this conversation (you if you're wondering), I don't have to lose on purpose for seasons straight to build a team. Never have, never will. Anyone could have your "stacked team" by getting top 10 picks for 4-6 seasons straight. Then, while sucking and being in a market the size of NY, you can overspend on big name FA that happen to make it to the market. So take your personal motive and shove it up your ass. Let's be fair. You started with an awesome Braves team in BBSBL, and you started with a pretty damn good team here as well. That's why you never had to go full tank mode because you always had pieces to compete. Had you started off with weaker major league teams, you would've gone about it differently if you had half a brain. To defend matt ... he is also created winners in gabl multiple times with expos and brewers i believe...and didnt tank to do it. Thats before that league went to shit too |

lol he has 11th best all-time batting average against. I rest my case. And yet, by the chart for our league, probably doesn't qualify for B in Hits. Sorry, that's a fact. NOW.....it's close enough I think an argument could be made, but don't get twisted about what the actual facts are. |

LMAO
A little research shows Seaver might not even qualify for B against HR's. Right? Looks to be on the Average/Good line to me.

Ok I see that now but he deserves the benefit of the doubt by rounding up Realistically and by normal math you would round down as he is closer to good then brilliant. |

Looks like Average in BB's too, no?
No wonder Chris had him rated the way he did at my link on page 1 of this thread.
Not against giving him the benefit of the doubt in ONE category, but he shouldn't get it in 2, and doubles, and be B's across the board. Chris was already giving him the benefit, some, in his G/G/B/G/B ratings.

Realistically and by normal math you would round down as he is closer to good then brilliant. He's right in the middle, so you'd round up No, no he's not . He is .226 brilliant stats at .213 (.13 away) and good at .238 (.12 away). |

I'm taking BR's "average", which is based on a full season of 162 games, and something like 34 starts for SP's. |

You give him a Brilliant talent, his rating is probably going to be higher than 8, thus making him even more unrealistic. |

I'm taking BR's "average", which is based on a full season of 162 games, and something like 34 starts for SP's. He averaged 250 innings per season. Giving up 20 homers in 250 innings and giving up 20 homers in 200-220 innings is a massive difference |

I'm really opposed to Brilliant in Hits Against unless you are: Nolan Ryan, Tom Seaver, Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez, Kerry Wood, Clayton Kershaw and similar. Oh, and Mariano Rivera, Bruce Sutter, Rich Gossage and Trevor Hoffman too. Like I said... |

If all you NL people are simply scared of the Mets' future, I can understand. But please don't let that cloud any of your judgments.
