    That is pretty much me too. One reason I think these historical drafts are cool, because a lot of guys I didn't know about or didn't know they were as good as they were. Brooks I knew was a great fielder but an average hitter. I have an old 70's card of him and remember being surprised to see not very outstanding numbers.

    This could be the best hitting team I've ever put together in this league with Philadelphia. I guess we'll find out how it goes.

    Re: 2042 Random Rumblings

    Ok, so I was thinking maybe I could challenge for the all time single season worst record in this league, but I have my work cut out to top 2008's St. Louis' mark of 24-138....


    Hm.

    Wasn't that the year GriffeyFan took them over and pretty much wrecked everything?

    Wait. So they win the World Series one year then lose 138 games the next?

    Wow. That puts the 1997/98 Marlins to shame.

    Yeah, when I took over St Louis. It rivaled S3SL Minnesota when Slyder took over.

    I've never seen so many atrocious records in the history of a league. Usually, once in awhile, you come across a 50 win, 40 win, maybe even a 30 win season.

    But 24 wins?... like, what was the team that year? 4.5 players? A midget included?


    Almost every season for awhile there, one team had an unreal bad season. Kinda..dampens..the drive to be really really bad this season. >_>
