Franchise leagues and Auto league chang


Franchise leagues and Auto league chang

Here's two adjustments I would like to propose:

1. Best of season league - Add in Best of 2020 and Best of 1980 and 1981.

2. Franchise Leagues - Offer a 5th team to choose from for the worst franchise teams such as the Royals, DBacks, Padres, White Sox, Athletics, Marlins, Pirates in order to increase competition.

Gbacci? Thoughts?

Re: Franchise leagues and Auto league c

I'm an Angel's fan. Have been since 79. You could let me pull from 10 teams and I still don't think I could come up with a championship caliber pitching staff. My guys, even when they win, just don't have great seasons.

Re: Re: Franchise leagues and Auto leag

So you wouldn't be intrigued by 1968 Tom Murphy, 1972, Nolan Ryan, 2014 Garrett Richard's, and 2023 Shohei Ohtani?

Also, drop the Yankees to two seasons

Re: Re: Franchise leagues and Auto leag

Yankees don't have enough good pitching for 2 seasons. Hell , they don't have enough from 4 as it is. Thats what is wierd about pc, just because a team was great ala 27 yanks doesn't mean it will translate to success here. I would love to see someone start a 64 team tourney of the all time greatest teams.

Re: Franchise leagues and Auto league c

@Trulaia Not a bad rotation, and I got nothing but admiration for Nolan Ryan, but PC is whip forward and only Murphy got under 1.00. Tanana had a season under 1.00. And RPs Harvey and Percival managed it. A few others, including Wilhelm in 69 when he was older than dirt. But by and large the Angel's have lived and died with whips between 1.25 and 1.5.

Re: Re: Franchise leagues and Auto leag

There's a whole new world coming for franchise leagues - stay tuned because I will need some folks to help test it soon - for all three sports.

Cool! I'm in!
