Dinos got a surprisingly good game out of Rafferty in his first big league start. Might have solved the 5th starter problem internally.

electriceel883 Joined: 05/26/2021 Posts: 1505 Irvine Infernos III.3	Toys with the idea of a gigantic park and an every-lineup OF of LF Arriaga (14-18-7), CF Shockley (20-18-17), RF Murillo (8-17-12)...both Shockley and Murillo are S who are not a major liability against RHP or LHP. Arriaga is L with a hit tool of 19...

electriceel883 Joined: 05/26/2021 Posts: 1505 Irvine Infernos III.3	It always seems like I (unlikely to break 50 wins again) am always competing with the big-time teams on the waivers...why on earth would the giants astride Olympus with their murderous hitting and pitching need the castoffs? I was the other claimant on Robbie Lunde (won by Boulder) Updated Monday, August 30 2021 @ 9:28:17 pm PDT

Rock777 Joined: 09/21/2014 Posts: 9597 Haverhill Halflings III.1	Because winning teams are built by smart acquisition of cast-offs. You can't just rely on draft luck. I haven't dipped down into the POT 11 pool for quite some time, but Roque looks really good. Updated Monday, August 30 2021 @ 11:06:05 pm PDT

electriceel883 Joined: 05/26/2021 Posts: 1505 Irvine Infernos III.3	I now have 16 players remaining of my original team, majors or minors. 34 have been acquired through waivers or free agency.

NotGood88 Joined: 08/28/2020 Posts: 510 Prattville Black Cats II.2	That’s a lot. I have many, many, many fewer Original Players From ‘47: 3 (It’s hard to beleive Solis was considered a young phenom back then, when he was 24. Now he’s 28. McGee was acquired in ‘47) Acquired Through Draft: 6 Updated Tuesday, August 31 2021 @ 12:12:26 pm PDT

electriceel883 Joined: 05/26/2021 Posts: 1505 Irvine Infernos III.3	Well I basically have been in charge about a season and a half. The team I inherited was good enough to promote from L6 the season before I got the team but was getting/got absolutely slaughtered in L5. So I knew I couldnt just patch a few holes but had to tear down most of the team. I didnt expect it to be a quick and easy process and its not. Congrats to the Moo Cows on claiming Komiyama. He was the 3rd guy I tried to get along with Lunde and Roque.
