Last round of the draft, Mark Ellis still hasn't gone, someone picks him up just for the sake of his home run...but I still think we should just allow all the stats to count.

Oh pick up Ellis, then immediately drop him? Why not just have our league start counting after we draft? Would that not level the playing field?

You should read the whole thread.
That's how things are set up now, the system doesn't count these games in Japan.
Zappa was saying that OMR should manually add the stats from those games.

I changed the league start date to 3/24....I think the stats DO count? Not sure though.

No, they won't. I hadn't thought about the logistics of the league when I requested the league start date be moved back. Many players stats don't count because they are on the bench on any given day. Some people understand why I made a round cutoff suggestion. I think it's reasonable and fair as long as we make it clear BEFORE the draft. I also think it is unfair to Liz to shorten the Red Sux season to only 160 games.

Geez, a league upgrade AND kind words for Liz?
That has got to exhaust your reserves of goodwill and civility for the next 18 months.

Japan is fucking my world up.
Then again, I am glad we are drafting this coming Saturday and not the Saturday that just passed.
People drafted Saltalamacchia in my other league and he just got sent down to the minors.

Ummmmmm the Salty send down was well telegraphed. Just out of curiosity, are there a hundred teams in that league?

I like Liz. I can be very nice to people I like. You, on the other hand, are a dick.

Well the draft is today. I have a feeling I'm going to get my ass kicked by you guys. It should still be fun though.

Thank you for upgrading the league for us. I downloaded that complete draft-kit this morning and have been doing a little last minute analysts before the draft. It will be interesting to see how everything plays out.

Great draft everybody. I'm always open to trade proposals. Looking forward to a long season with no waning of interest on anybody's part.

Nice draft everyone. I just realized that I have all three pitchers that threw no hitters last year. It wasn't intentional, just turned out that way.
