admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4981 Administrator | Was watching the MLB draft (kind of in the background). Anyone else watching? I noticed that the scouting reports are more like this: 8. Dylan Lesko (18.9), RHP, Buford HS (GA), Vanderbilt commit Velo: 94-96 t97, Fastball: 60/65, Curveball: 50/60, Changeup: 70/80, Command: 40/55 10. Gavin Cross (21.3), RF, Virginia Tech Hit: 30/55, Game Power: 35/55, Raw Power: 60/60, Speed: 50/50, Field: 45/50, Throw: 50/50 Not sure what the difference between Game Power and Raw power is.

I believe game power is an estimate of actual output (ie., HRs) where raw power is how far a player is capable of hitting it. 400 ft with some consistency vs. 450 ft occasionally. |

So I liked the Athletics and the Packers despite being from New England. Picking a strong team to rooting for is boring. It was more fun rooting for the Pats pre/post Brady. More interesting; not that I had any complaints about winning with Brady. But a lot more fun when you are rooting for them before they get good |

amalric7 Joined: 01/20/2016 Posts: 2235 New York Lancers IV.2 | Coming from (ie. living) overseas with no prior rooting interest...I chose the Dodgers, simply because I liked the name. I'd followed football for a long, long time but had never gotten into baseball until 2004 when I was (1) invited to join a fantasy baseball league, and (2) ready Moneyball. I didn't know anything about them and the name Frank McCourt meant nothing to me, but it's worked out pretty well. | ||

tamale Joined: 02/19/2018 Posts: 357 Concord Jets II.2 | How/why did you choose the Orioles? Rock pretty much nailed it - I wanted a historical team, but more of an underdog that could take on big teams like the Yankees, Red Sox, Jays, etc. (hasn't gone to plan recently, but they're turning it around!). I also like their colour scheme, logo/bird nickname, and ballpark. |

kladu Joined: 02/03/2013 Posts: 57 Birmingham Athletics Legends | heh, I still follow the Pirates, not best for your health, but Picked it because dad used to work in Pittsburgh, and it was fun with Bonilla, Bonds, VanSlyke coming up to bat .. with no irrational hate for Reds, Pvt, cut me some slack, I only remember Marge sadly, my pitching will soon resemble theirs |
