Looks like everyone has a good handle on how to score your team. Other than ballparks, this is exactly how you score the rest of your franchise.

The scoring for winning pct. has been fixed. Not sure how it got switched around, but you definitely get more points for having a winning record. Sorry about that!

Closers and Catchers will report tomorrow.

Chris I'll try to get to this tonight. Looks like 14 hours again today, so it might wait until tomorrow. I'll get it caught up sometime if you post stuff tomorrow. Worst case it'll get done Saturday. I love your games, so I will get it done, just not sure when.

This notice is required by law.

I will be out of town for a funeral beginning on Wednesday. I should be back by Saturday afternoon. I may try to keep up with scoring while I'm gone. If not, I'll catch up when I return.

Your score for Wells is actually 140. His WHIP was 0.14 below the 1.25 benchmark that year (a good thing). So, he earns 10 points for every .01 below 1.25.

Your revised total is 75: 200 + 60 + 140 - 230 - 95 = 75

Working 14 hours again tomorrow Chris. I'll catch up on all my scoring Ryan his weekend.

Here's an updated leaderboard:

Numbers in red indicate HOFers. This will be a handy reference for the bonus scoring.

[MENTION=1873]wildcat4[/MENTION] [MENTION=6194]Hendersonfan[/MENTION] or anyone else: there is absolutely no problem with catching up later. This is just a fun diversion and is about as low a priority as it gets!

Just didn't want you to think I was throwing in the towel and not participating after I was so excited to play.
