An updated leaderboard (pre-trades).

The post trade leaderboard will be posted shortly.

Other than wigglytuff's sizeable lead (thanks to an outrageous performance from his SP2), it's a 10-12 horse race! As metioned, the ballpark scoring is very different from the rest of the game and could prove to be the great equalizer.

Don't forget that last place also gets a prize, so scoff [MENTION=2164]Hullfan[/MENTION] at your own peril. haha

Side note: I have not gone ahead and scored anyone's franchise. I haven't a clue how this will turn out.

Hey, Alex. I was confused by your scoring for Morgan and Cramer, so I took a second look. Here's your actual scores:

Morgan: 13th year for OPS (.974)
.974 - .800 = 174 x 6 (HOF) = 1044

Cramer: 3rd year for Slugging %
.341 - .500 = 159 x -3 = -477

@clarkzac:

I ran your bench scores so I could wrap up everyone's trades:

N9 = Johnny Damon
M12 = Total Bases Year 12
286 * 2 = 572
S11 = Lave Cross
D21 = Hits Year 21
32 * 3 = 96
Y2 = Jake Beckley (HOF)
D4 = Hits Year 4
162 * 6 = 972

Total = 1640


EDIT: Nevermind, your bench players aren't even being traded. Consider it one less round you have to deal with! Please wrap up your other positions as soon as you can. Thanks.

Oh wow. Thanks! I was just getting ready to finish mine up. I've just been so busy lately. I think I have the 1B, 2B, and 3B written down somewhere so it shouldn't take me too long to get caught up

Question on my trade,
on Bench Players because I thought I just traded a HOF for a HOF, but in the scoring, I lost a HOF,
what player is C3?

C3 = L1 which is Stan Musial (HOF) (Not Fred McGriff) Correct?
M12 = L14 which is 39 Ks * (-3) = (-117)

plmk thanks
BN1- C3,M12- F.MCGRIFF-14TH SEASON K'S= 107*-6=-642
BN2- A7,L15- D.PARKER- 15TH SEASON WALKS=44*4=176
BN3- F5,V15- R.PALMEIRO- 5TH SEASON WALKS=40*4=160
TOTAL= -306
I'm trying to get as close to zero as possible!

Bench 1: A7, B9 Dave Parker (1978) 102 Runs Scored X 3 (Reg) = 306

Bench 2: C3, P2 Stan Musial (1952) .336 BA, .336 - .275 = 61 deviations X 10 (HOF) = 610

Bench 3: C5, R7 Jimmy Ryan (1893) .835 OPS, .835 - .800 = 35 dev X 3 (Reg) = 105

Total = 1021

Another good catch [MENTION=2333]Casebusters[/MENTION]. Thanks! You are absolutely correct. Your score will be amended for the next leaderboard update (-117 for BN1, 1,812 overall not including your manager score).

Yet another example of why this game requires a group effort. An honest error for [MENTION=2122]robertwolf1[/MENTION]. Thanks again.
