Someone answered the age old question of who would win; Tebow or Elway!
I have a few theories on the game... anyone think rest matters? I think it does especially depending on position.
Last year I used a pretty aggressive rotation to get regular days off, the most I have ever done. I had very few injury days. Anecdotal, but I believe it matters too, especially at CF. So much ground to cover for those guys.I have a few theories on the game... anyone think rest matters? I think it does especially depending on position.

Check out the numbers on the HoG DH Haamid... one year he played catcher was his worst by far. I think it also partly explains why SS hitting is such shit because I think that position takes more out of guys.I BELIEVE it does, but I think it definitely depends on both the position and the player. I did look into it a bit with stats, but there is so much noise associated with SAD attitudes from losing teams that the sample size is small and that it makes it really hard to test some of my ideas. I have definitely noticed certain players tend to suffer at the plate when playing difficult defensive positions. Specifically, Catchers seem to hit better when they aren't starting at Catcher.
Too small of a sample. SS suck at hitting because they all have bad ratings.I think it does too at certain positions.

One other theory: CF defense peaks around 23-24.
C Jerry 'Fivespot' Gowing has pretty elite batting ratings. He's been a starter at C every season except last season when he was a full time DH. This year he is moving back to catcher.
Did you even look at any of his stats, or just his catcher rating? I'm going to assume the latter.Why in the name of g-d would you do that?
They aren't great, but they aren't terrible either. He even had a positive ZR and a 1.151 Eff rating in '65. Maybe what I should have said is either Gowing or RF Miguel 'Pooky' González is going to have to play the field...His Catcher ratings aren't great either, but if it's the best way to fit him in the lineup then he's not terrible back there. C is the one position I go full defense on where possible

SSSIt did much a huge difference for Haamid who is top 5 hitter in WBL history.
One whole year = large sample size especially when it's a few standard deviations off the rest of his career.
You should try to learn what the hell to do while running the riggers into the ground instead!
You can always move Kabul!I'm already eyeing him to be the GM of the expansion Tanners!

Why quit now? You're due!
Travis is smart enough to know that the Law of Averages is a fallacy!
Two questions:
1. I have multiple players that I'd like to get playing time at other positions, while starting at their main position. So, for example I have a player that needs to start 2B, but I also want to get him time at SS/3B. How can I do this? When I try and put him as the backup for those positions it doesn't let me.
2. Anyone have any two-way players? I have a guy that I'd like to get time in the field, but also in the bullpen. Is that possible? Because even though he shows up on my list of pitchers when I'm looking at my "pitching" screen, I can't drag him to my bullpen.
