Alright, I closed it at 16, with 2 divisions. Let me know what teams you are, so I know who is who. I am La Flama Blanca (Kenny Powers nickname from Season 2 of Eastbound and Down).
Good luck all!

I am, obviously, the AwkwardLoud Colt .45s in honor of the original Houston MLB team 1962 - 1964 before they decided to be space age politically correct by changing their name to Astros.
We'll be scraping the bottom of the barrel by the end of a 16 team draft. I hope to find a couple young dark horses with potential talent.

Had an old .45's cap I used to wear around.Great look. Much better name as well.
Lot's of Texans in this league, good luck!
Oh cool. I have a .45s ball cap as well. I bought it at the Hall of Fame in Copperstown when I was a kid.
I can only imagine what it was like to play baseball at Colt Stadium in sweltering nasty heat with all those mosquitos. Apparently, some games were postponed due to the mosquito problem.

One of my old HS coaches father was a coach for them back in the day, and he used to hang out at Colt stadium as a kid. He said before the move to the Astrodome the mosquitos we're like Hummingbirds.
I can't think of a more miserable place to play outdoor summer baseball...except Arlington...doh!

Congrats to Master of Puppets, who dominated the league all year. Rickengeezer - Nice run in the playoffs after you edged me out for a playoff spot. Bastard

I'd like to see more categories ...there was something i didn't like...I'll look more when I can get to a desktop.
Here are the current categories -
-------
Batters Stat Categories: Runs (R), Hits (H), Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), Stolen Bases (SB), Batting Average (AVG), On-base + Slugging Percentage (OPS)
Pitchers Stat Categories: Innings Pitched (IP), Wins (W), Saves (SV), Strikeouts (K), Holds (HLD), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP)
-------
Was thinking of dropping Avg and OPS and adding Extra Base Hits and BB
Lemme know what you think

Welcome aboard...did you play in the first season we did this? I noticed you had posted in this thread back then. We had a little turnover over the years, I can't remember who is who.
