FRBI VI Rules and Lineup Submission/Change Thread.

[Darky]

Thanks everybody.

I just edited the attachment with the schedule. I forgot to change the Fighting Cutlers to the Fighting Ulrachers. It's fixed now.

I just finished a new stat excel sheet for this year. It'll also record runners thrown (TO) out at a base, runners run down (RD), and hitting into ground ball double plays (DP).

It will also have a rating cell----BA + Slug % + On Base % + [( Runs + RBI ) / At Bats] - SO%. I still need to determine how I will value and equate TO, RD, and DP in there to give a different dimension to a player's rating.

Here are the matchups for opening day on Wednesday:

Dove RBI

Rebel Alliance at Galactic Empire
Banana Hammocks at Fighting Artichokes

Gantry     

OC Legions of Doom at Fighting Ulrachers
Badasses at Blue Ribbons

Non League      

Sally Cunts at Poopydicks

I made a change to my SP rotation. El Toro will get the opening day start. Fernandomania has taken off over at the galactic capital on planet Coruscant. Imperial Stadium is going to be rockin! Home of the defending champions.

Yeah, I lost a bet to Shooty on the US-Canada game. Apparently I'm stuck with that avatar for a month. I'm the good looking tanned guy btw...not the douchey looking dude with the hat backwards hahaha

You know Attezz looks way more tan than you in that picture, right?

[AlecTrevylan006]

It's all relative.

Relative to his fellow albinos, Darky is tan as hell.

Darky,

We're sending Herr down to the minors to see if he can get his stroke back.

In the meantime Marty Barret has received the nod at 2nd base, and will be batting 8th in the Rebel lineup.

Please make this effective for week 4.

I'll post the standings starting with the week 5 thread and so on. Stats will be released after week 4 as well.

[Darky]

Runs seem to be down significantly so far this year since I changed the Error value from 4 to 2. Huge difference with less BOPS. A lot of low scoring games compared to last year so far.

If you need to make a change, do it asap. Week 5 will start earlier than normal---sometime during the dee nee morning.

[Gantry]

Darky!

Move our 4/5/6 batters up a spot and drop that SACK OF CRAP Wally Joyner to #6

A simple flip-flop. It's done.

I need to score the Empire-Hammocks game now, and after that---a press conference has been announced with Darkside.

I really think this is going to pay off huge.

[Gantry]

I agree, unstoppable team after this imo

[AlecTrevylan006]

Desperation lineup change...

1.) Gedman
2.) Brunasty
3.) Bell
4.) Jones
5.) Ripken
6.) Knight
7.) Speier
8.) Teufel

BENCH
1.) Bass
2.) Ashby
3.) Aldrete
4.) SOwen

PITCHING
1.) Scott
2.) Key
3.) Moore
4.) Franco

Flip flopping Jones and Brunasty.

Originally put Brunasty in the leadoff spot and Gedman 4th, but I think this is a better solution. Didn't realize Brunasty actually had better speed than Rupert... Hopefully that'll break up some double plays and get more men on base for the relatively productive Jones
