    I don't remember that being the case, but the pick is in the bottom half regardless.

    Yeah, means nothing to you because you're out of the playoffs. Means something to me because the pick still got a few notches better.


    But if you bit it much harder it would have went to

    Seems likely this was Thurm's final season. Thurman Munson is one of my favorite baseball players ever, based on readings of his life and career since I was not born during his lifetime. While Jeter was largely brought in as a joke, acquiring Munson was simply just a personal benefit of having a player I had wished I had gotten to see live and wished hadn't tragically passed.

    Thank you for making that happen back in 2054, Mach.

    I didn't think I would make the playoffs. I had an outside shot at a Wild Card, but that's about it. The pick is right where it was last year, which is around where my picks usually are. Not bad considering my starting SS and #1 SP were both out for 2 months. Assuming I keep my 2067 1st round pick, it will be my first since 2049 lol.

    It's still a win from Cleveland's perspective.

    Had you slipped into the playoffs it could have been as low as the last pick of the draft considering I use an NFL style system.

    Was consistantly 3rd place in the NL West this year. The Sinkler experiment wasn't a complete waste besides a wretch slow start sunk his era. Hopefully I can move one of the 5 starters for a high OBP guy this offseason. Molitor didn't do much, Forbes was pretty much the same guy he's been throughout his career (very solid Setup).

    Final Wrap Up:
    Batting AVG: .277 (6th)
    Homeruns: 139 (17th)
    Walks: 440 (22nd)
    Stolen Bases: 233 (4th)
    Runs Scored: 784 (14th)

    Pitching ERA: 3.57 (3rd)
    Opponents AVG: .242 (3rd)
    HRs Allowed: 116 (11th)
    Walks Allowed: 451 (18th)
    Runs Allowed: 642 (3rd)

    I need one more really strong bat it looks like.

    Ah, yes, the John Bazinga trade. I recall that as I kinda needed a RP, but I more wanted to make that happen on a personal level even though it was Boston.

    I wish I would have held him one more season though so he could have won with me and you, but at least he got one.

    Looks like UCF was the only person on the draft class to make the playoffs. Automatic winner!

    I have 2 different themes I've been thinking of since Leo started that. 90s NBA Stars and 90s family sitcoms we all grew up with (atleast those of you in the 20-40yr old range)

    So you're looking at shows that fall under the TGIF umbrella? You could technically use 90s NBA stars from Hanging With Mr. Cooper.
