as long as we're talking rules...

does anyone else feel like the points for pitching could be altered somehow? it seems like now, your start either sucks (0-4 points) or is very good (15-18 points). i don't feel like there's a real middle ground.

 

in reality, there is little difference between a 7 ip/4 er start and a 6 ip/3 er start. but in our league, the points difference is huge. the only way i can see to make the SP's points less extreme, but to keep the overall value of pitching, is to perhaps knock a QS from 7 to 5 points, but to increase the value of an inning pitched from 1.5 to 2.25.

 

like it? hate it? hate me?

I wouldn't mind that.........I'd like to see more points for relievers too. They really don't have much impact at all as of now.

That's as it should be!

I would like more points for the bulbs and fewer points for Tim's teams.

 

 

I want to make the [expletive] playoffs at least once before retiring, I'm tired of being the Cubs of Roadkill.

I think there are a lot of starts between 5-12 points. I am the master of them. I think QS's used to be worth just 5. I like it the way it is. I like everything the way it is.

relievers have a huge impact. there have been numerous games that i've won this year because my pen puts up 30 points to the other guy's 5. my pen's the main reason i made the playoffs...

 

and if you want to see a more current example of a pen having an impact, check out the buddiga/GHS matchup right now...my pen has been outscored roughly 36-4. and i'm losing by almost exactly 32.
