Best Bench in RBI?

[edfan]

Rule #1 of dee-nee:  your opinion is wrong.  imo

Coming from a guy who claims that Sheridan > Madlock, I agree...your opinion is wrong imo.  Everyone else is entitled to their opinion, though

You had to go there.  You just couldn't leave well enough alone. 

You called down the thunder, well now your have it.  You tell the others Sheridan's coming.  You tell em I'm coming and hell's coming with me. You hear?

Bring it on, sister.  Sure, you can believe that Sheridan is the best.  You can get some others to believe it too.  You can also tell people that the Sun revolves around the Earth and some people will believe you.  You'll know BDawk's followers when you see them.  They'll be the guys with tin foil on their heads and wearing jump suits made of bubble wrap chanting nonsense leaving Madlock on the bench all the while

Here is BDawk playing one of Gantry's cats in RBI.  This is right before he subs in Sheridan for Herndon at the beginning of the game

[edfan]

You can tell by the look on his face that the cat thinks that it is a stupid move and approves of Madlock.  He's just a cat, though and does not have opposable thumbs for subbing

You are so wrong.  This is when Gantry, myself and his cats play D&D

[Gantry]

I'm pretty sure that's MikeD

Boston has the best players on the bench, but I think CA depends on their bench more. CA is a pretty shitty team with just their starters and Boston is a better team with just the starters.

I don't know about that.
Barret, Buckner, and Owen are about as bad as it gets.

I can't believe anyone thinks that Burleson is better than Pedro Guerrero.

[edfan]

I don't think anyone made the claim that Burleson is better than Guerrero.  I did say that I like Wilfong better than Guerrero, though.  I do have a bit of a lefty bias, though.  Guerrero is a disappointment in RBI for me

[Gantry]

Teh Maverick too?

[Nacho]

Definitely looks like Mike D.  That cat is now unclean.

Sorry... I feel the same way about Wilfong over Guerrero, too.

If it's not Wilfong, either Tony "The Bone" Armas or Marky "Sell A Soul" Sullivan from Boston crushes the opposition's pitching. Dave Henderson is clutch as balls too.

I may be the only one who says this, but for how shitty Houston is, Terry Puhl is actually pretty solid for 1-2 ABs before he lags off with hitting to the 3rd baseman.

My .02 for the night. I missed the whole MikeD argument.

i like to go burks first, armas second, sometimes i keep owen and put in hndrsn late and sometimes just go with him.

In ATG, I very rarely use a pinch hitter the first time through the line-up.  I am all about taking a lot of pitches and trying to tire out the starter as much as possible.  I am fine scoring no runs in the first few innings, especially against someone with nasty pitching skills.

Then I start bringing in the subs situationally.  For example, I will not put in Armas with a guy on 1st and less than two outs, as it kills me to waste that enormous PH bonus on a DP ball.  I'd rather have a crappy lefty, to get me a better chance at avoiding a DP.

In Str8P, I put in Armas-1, Burks-2, and Henderson for Owen.  Sullivan is saved for a late inning PH spot for a pitcher (and potentially for Boggs in rare situations, as sullivan has the same power as Boggs, but with a 64 point PH bonus).

i can't imagine putting in stinky for wade fucking boggs

Same here.  Boggs is the man.

[nomaaa]

wade fucking boggs

[ultimate7]

855 power for Sullivan to PH in the 9th playing straight pitch

[Re-Peat]

Well straight pitch is for sissies anyways...
