Coors Hitter Strategy...?

[Amazinz]

I've been doing that with pitchers... see, in my league higher ERAs are better.

This was a great tactic in my futility league last year...

Hah futility league. Thanks for the great idea. Nice spin on things that I'm going to try out next season.

Can't take credit (or blame ) for the idea - an amigo of mine came up with this while watching an Orioles-Blue Jays game several years ago. Go figure...

Anyway, I'm sure many others have thought of this as well. It is an interesting twist, though.

It makes some sense. Like today for example, you get 2 games at Coors. I'm sitting an ailing Bret Boone for Jack wilson. I think the key question is, do you have a roster space for WW player? Next series, grab someone like Marlon Byrd

I still have Burnitz on most of my teams for this reason. when they're playing at Coors, he plays. On the road he's a fill-in only.

So far it's O.K., but not outstanding>>

Well, you can't really complain too much, considering that only Bonds and Dunn have a higher season OPS than Burnitz is producing at home...

Burnitz will jack 40, or very close to that. The guy is a fine power hitter even when not in Coors - a lock for 30+ as long as he gets consistent ab's.

I waived Julio Lugo for Rolls Royce Clayton since he has the doubleheader at Coors and I need to make up a couple games at short, we'll see how it goes

[Lofunzo]

Is there a site that does futility leagues or do you have to do it yourself??

[BronsonPinchot]

You can probably set yahoo up to do it, just invert the points awarded for the categories.

[KolbSaves]

or just play yahoo but everyone tries to get 12th place and not 1st
