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

 

[Johnny G]

Bench 1: Cap Anson(HOFer) - Total Bases(24th) - 107 x 4 = 428

Bench 2: Vada Pinson(Non-HOFer) - Runs Scored(8th) - 97 x 3 = 291

Bench 3: George Sisler(HOFer) - Strike-outs(25th) - 24 x (-3) = -72

Total Points = 647

 

[nbailey]

Bench1 B1, B1 Rusty Staub (at bats in 25th season (292)) -> 108 * -3 = -324
Bench2 J10,Z15 Manny Ramirez (walks in 1st season) -> 2 * 4 = 8
Bench3 G7,U14 Barry Bonds (triples in 6th season) -> 5 * 25 = 125

I am a terrible manager, I'm getting the worst out of great players.

 

[MansGame]

[MENTION=2477]Gwynn545[/MENTION] - Looks like you'll make out a little better than me points wise on our "trades" but I do get both your HOF'ers

 

[MansGame]

Bench 1: (J3, K4)
N5 = Cap Anson (HOF) * D16 = Hits 157x6 = 942

Bench 2: (A6, L5)
R2 = Honus Wagner (HOF) * E15 = HRs 9x20 = 180

Bench 3: (A7, P12)
R12 = Doc Cramer * L11 = Strikeouts 17x-6 = -102

TOTAL = 1020

 

[Y4NK335]

BN1 - B1, O1, Ty Cobb HOF, (1905) 10 BB, 10 x 8 = 80 (HOF)


BN2 - B2, O2, Rusty Staub, (1964) 21BB + 4 IBB, 21 x 4 = 84 or 100 if IBB are included


BN3 - D1, O3, Dave Winfield HOF, (1975) 69 BB + 14 IBB, 69 x 8 = 552 or 664 if IBB are included


TOTAL = 716 or 848 with IBB

Are intentional walks included in for walk totals? Regardless, I have calculated both. Thanks!

Good question. Only regular walks are included for this game (BB column only).

 

[Jedi500]

Bench 3 - I2 N4 - Carl Yastrzemski - Hits - 13th Season - Hall of Fame - 160*6 = 960

[metallicalex777]

BN1: (G3, J11) G3=N2 -> Cal Ripken Jr. (HOF); J11=K17 -> Stolen Bases of 1; 1x10= 10
BN2: (H2, I15) H2=H3 -> Heinie Manush (HOF); I15=O18 -> Walks of 20; 20x8= 160

[VandyDan]

Bench 1: C5 L7 Jimmy Ryan OPS in Year 15 = .752 = -144 points
Bench 2: B4 T4 Brooks Robinson (HOF) Hits in year 7 = 192 = 1152 points
Bench 3: D1 D2 Sam Crawford (HOF) AVG in year 23 = .333 = 580 points.

Bench Total: 1588. Combined Total: 1876. PLUS a 500 Bonus for 2 HOF Bench players (or is it too early for that?) With the Bonus: 2376. Without 1876. Not too shabby. What the heck am I doing with Ray Boone at 3B with the Hoover Man on the bench?

 

[nofrills]
