I lost 2 of my best to injuries in cup game, just wondering how some of you guys go about game planning for the cup league? |

I don't see going far in the cup, and my kids are having a hard time cracking the line-up in league. So ya, if don't think it's going to affect your outcome, quite alright to rest some veterans in cup games. PS - my vets are actually getting a decent number of cup at bats, because the kids go out there and pull hamstrings, strain calves, inflame elbows, etc.. |
