Nothing is changing at least until the end of the year. I think things actually look pretty good, but wouldn't be opposed to adding a point or two for a quality start later on. It sucks when your pitcher pitches great and doesn't get the win

I gotta see a list with the top 50 players to give an opinion. Top 20 batters/pitchers doesn't really show anything

Also curious what we're going to do with the minor league draft. We could expand the rosters or keep them at 5 and you will have to drop players in order to be part of the draft.

Something definitely needs to be done about that.
Lots of options with this too. We could emulate what we do with major league rosters and only let 4 of the 5 players be kept, we could expand rosters by a few slots, or we could be boring and leave it the way it is and let people keep all 5 but not expand rosters at all

We'll have to look at things at the end of the season too, as it could balance out by then. But, doesn't look so great right now. Though there should be more batters up there than pitchers, just because of how baseball works

Why don't we wait until the end of the season before we worry about point system changes. When we applied the new points to last year's overall standings, they were a lot better than the results so far this year.

I only have one hitter in the top 49 (Carlos Gonzalez).

In other news, my entire team other than Bumgarner is available, preferably for some hitting .

Soo face reveal time (besides my face having a giant shadow on it) my friend took this during the Angels series when I had on field passes.

Bam offered me Glasnow for the number one picks in both drafts then criticized me for giving them to Exit for Urias instead.

Then he gives it to me for not having major leaguers but wants me to give him mine.

Bam, take a seat.
Just wanted to bump up one of my favorite posts in this entire thread.

Nice pictures guys, although I imagined Awz to look way different than that lol.

I usually imagine people looking like their avatar players if I don't know what they look like. For example, Hollywood looks like Brian Dozier in my mind.

I expected you to look like Coco Crisp or Larry Fitzgerald. I don't know why.

I think everyone should post a picture of themselves. It would be interesting to see what everyone in the league looks like in real life. I think I posted a picture of myself once, let me try to find it.

I'll be honest, until I see actual pics of faces, I picture everyone at 280 pounds wearing glasses and in dirty tshirts and greasy facial hair and generally looking disgusting.

Of everyone in this league, the worst image in my mind is of Bam... LOL.
