WAR Budget Advise
Hey, I just wanted to see if some of the players having success in the WAR Budget format have some advise. Favorite Teams is my favorite format, but I've been really struggling to put together winners in the new WAR Budget format. My strategy has been: spend big on 2 or 3 SP's (low WHIP and H/9 guys with good K/9), then look for bargains to fill out the rotation. Look for bargains for the bullpen (maybe spend 2-3 WAR on a stud bullpen arm if he's truly elite). Spend big on offensive starters (trying to get 4-5 1.000+ OPS guys), and get good D up the middle (SS, 2B and CF). This recipe has worked in the other formats, but I keep topping out at a few games over .500.
I think ultimately what I'm missing is an encyclopedic knowledge of high performing, low WAR players who just barely hit the IP and AB minimums, but help me out if there's something else I've overlooked. Thanks yall.
