    Who's had the worst luck in S3SL?

    Overall, that is, not just this season.


    And then, who's had the best luck?
    Marshall: MILSWANCAs?

    I trade away my two best players and I start the season 9-5. Go figure.

    I think I've been middle of the pack... I knew my team sucked when I took them over, and I've been hovering around the middle of the division and .500 since taking over... I can't consider my luck good or bad...

    Personally, I think anyone with a World Series title can't say they're the choice when half the teams in this league haven't won...some of which having good GMs

    It's not me, that's all I know. Have I won a title? Nope. But I've never had one of those career ending injuries to a serious player I relied on (Well, Padilla, but I signed Russ Ortiz to replace him! *sigh*). Most of my trades (and the trades with the co-GM) worked out, many of the season enders only made great players good, not great players bad or good players bad. My worst luck was being in the same division as mission, and I guess I brought that on myself.

    Mission has the best luck. Most of the prospects he acquires (from the trades of Livingston, Egea, Held, etc.) turn to gold and most of the major leaguers and prospects he trades away (Willard, Dunn, Held, Boyter) decline relatively soon.

    On the other hand, great GMs have luck on their side.

    But he has not been to the World Series since my arrival to the league so I could be wrong.

    Mission has a good eye for specs. I'd say he has bad luck. His playoff record based on the teams he has? Wow, theres no reason the man shouldn't have more titles than he does now.

    It's probably me.

    I've made some bad trades in years past and I learned my lesson on that. I was new to the game and I had no clue but to try it out and see what happens. Now, I'm one of the longest tenured managers who haven't made the playoffs once.

    Boo hoo, Dave. When's the last time I had a healthy rotation in the playoffs?

    Seriously? I think "no one" is the best answer.
