Season 39: What is on for next season!

Owners have to choose one AL and one NL team from 1994 to 2019. If the 1st team you pick comes from the East, then the next team you choose must come from the East also but the other league.

The HOFers chosen must be from opposite leagues. Owners have to pick a HoF pitcher and a HOF hitter .

Season 39 Format:

We have a great new format, thank's to "DodgerRon?. Check this out.

**You choose One AL team and One NL team from 1994 to 2019.
**Both teams must come from the same division. If you choose an AL team from the East, then you NL team must come from the East.
**You get two HOF players (1 batter and 1 pitcher) of your choice. If your first pick of HOF is Pitcher, then your next must be a Batter.
**1 HOF player must be from AL and the other one from NL.

**Duplicate players are not permitted. There can be no duplicate HOF player on any team with the same year. So 1928 Babe Ruth or 1968 Nolan Ryan can only be imported on one team.
**Please take time to go over all the rules and PM Dukeblues or Demetri1377 if you have any questions.

There will be four rounds of drafting:
...Round one - choose a NL or AL team from 1994 to 2019.
...Round two - choose a team from 1994 to 2019. If you picked NL team in round one, you must select AL team in round two. Remember from the same division.
...Round three - choose a HOF pitcher or batter from 1900 to 2019.
...Round four - choose a HOF batter or pitcher from opposite league as picked in round 2 and from 1900 to 2019. If you picked AL HOF pitcher in round three, you must pick NL HOF batter in round four.

4/17/2024 Gauging WAR vs. Rnk in the newgbacci
I created the original FIRE formula so I'm glad it had some logic to it, but I think what some people would argue is why does McGwire in this example need the extra boost when his only real advantage over Harrah was homeruns?

In fact I see McGwire sitting on the bench in a lot of 1980s leagues, including teams owned by people on this thread.:)

So in the old formula, if you put McGwire and Harrah in the lead off spot for all 162 games, McGwire would have been On Fire 23 times and Harrah 17 times. In the new formula, it's Harrah 12, and McGwire 10. Just because McGwire was going to be a great player and Harrah was old, doesn't mean Harrah's single season (in this case 1982) doesn't stack up to McGwire's 1987 season. I think despite the new On Fire we'd all draft McGwire first because of the 49 homeruns, so it hasn't really tanked his value.

Again, these are all rhetorical questions as we don't yet know how this is going to play out.
