        You have Addie Joss pitching mop-up? I'm sure you must have some sort of master plan, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is...

            I hope this isn't true. Knowing Garry for some time in the CKL, I don't think it is. Drafting for the future is one thing; positioning players with the intent to increase the likelihood of losing is another.

              Yeah, I'm not suggesting that - I just think that's where we are heading

                  Addie Joss in the mopup role speaks to the strength of our pitching than anything else.

                  Rube Waddell: 2.05 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, 178 ERA+
                  Bill Bernhard: 2.15 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, 160 ERA+
                  Joe McGinnity: 2.84 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, 117 ERA+
                  Bill Dinneen: 2.93 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 121 ERA+
                  Ed Poole: 2.10 ERA, 1.32 WHIP, 142 ERA+
                  Rube Kisinger: 3.12 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, 120 ERA+
                  Addie Joss: 2.77 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, 124 ERA+

                  Waddell and Bernhard are a clear #1-2. A case could be made for Joss being the #3 starter ahead of McGinnity or Dinneen, however the numbers are similar and both have over 350+ more BF than Joss so I elected to use them as starters and work Joss from the bullpen at least to start the season.

                  As for his role in the bullpen, I felt that Joss could get more innings in the mopup role than in the long relief role. If he pitches well and/or either McGinnity or Dinneen struggle early on we'll likely make a switch. Ed Poole could also be in the mix for a starting spot if he pitches well in the closers role. He has less BF though so we likely won't consider using him as a starter until at least june.

                  7 quality pitchers makes for some tough decisions, still it is a nice problem to have!

                              Play Ball!!!

                              The 1902 season is undeer way, and Jamestown & New Orleans start things off in grand fashion as both teams post league best 8-2 records. They open the season with 2 game leads over the next best teams. Seattle gets clobbered with the injurry bug right off the bat losing 3 players for a combined 52 days
