Are we having trades/waivers?

I vote no, but I don't feel that strongly about it.


I'm usually on the no side but, but I feel like if we're ever gonna give it a shot, this would be the time. Inevitably halfway through the season people are going to start wanting trades, so we might as well.


I still support one add/drop just to give us the chance to get rid of a shitty reliever who WhatIf loves.

I am behind one add/drop at the halfway point. Can the statsheet be modified to accommodate this?

ugh

One add/drop at the All-Star Break, trades up until the All-Star Break?

How long is the season/when is the all star break? I'm going to add a 26th player to the post break games on the blank sheet to accommodate the add/drop.

Trades are more complicated. Can they be accommodated into the spreadsheet?

Yeah this is why trades are stupid.

What if we have everyone play each other eight times? Three game series the first two times through, then a home-away two game series down the stretch? So 56 games.

Sixty-three would make it uneven. Is seventy too much?

Will TBAMTS pick Ryne Sandberg, Mark Prior, or Sammy Sosa?

I've got the single season WAR leaders from this time period all lined up and ready to go.

What site let's you limit the years?

A-Rod led Skitch to the Post-Strike Championship.

I just copy/pasted into excel and sorted by year and deleted everything outside of 1986-2005
