Andujar is our best performer right now. He's been a one man wrecking ball, 20 HR, 170 R+RBI, 52 SB in only 65 games .402/.498/.735 :-L

Hey if there was more customization in terms of player builds, would you guys be more interested in sticking around longer? I figure if there's more variation, it would be more interesting, right?

To whomever is running the Choppers...

If you want to win in the playoffs, I suggest using this last day to make sure that Superking and Felix get to start the playoffs - and not JTWood.

He's terrible in comparison. :-)

Felix is a Pierre's throw away from getting first place in the Cy Young, and Chan Ho Casanova is leading the MVP race. Great month to be a Chopper. Thanks to all the Clan vets! ;-D

Congrats on winning the AAA MVP Award. Casanova definitely deserved it. Monster season.

Marina, Eko, Andujar, and Olerud were also in the top 10 for the MVP, while Felix and Superking were top 10 for the Cy Young. More importantly, as a team, we had the best record in AAA. ;-D

But yeah, would you guys mind backing me up a little bit on the "more variation + more realistic = more fun" point I'm trying to make here?

I don't need essays or anything, just something in support of having more player builds? I know some guys are losing interest because most player builds are pretty much identical at this point, and repetition is the heart of boredom.
