I'm hoping to have one of the best records in the league next year so that I can get that all-important home field advantage in the postseason. The Vikings did quite well in the second half of the year once I picked up Baby Ruth.

Been trying to sell Carl Hubbell all week (previous stats) but nobody's biting. Ended up using him as a stopper in the playoffs, and that worked well, especially during the upset of the Southpaws.

Mussina, who pitched 16 innings at home in the series, had 1.0 HR/9 during the season so I was prepared to see at least a few dingers from guys like Barry and Babe. The overall strategy for my park settings are to take away baserunners from lefty teams, while allowing my lefty power to take advantage of my righty baserunners. So, that Mussina didn't give up a single longball was pretty fortunate, especially because the games all turned out to be so close.

On the other hand, the vL splits for LHB against LHP are pretty severe, so I was mostly banking on Brett Anderson and CC Sabathia to generate wins, and hoping I could get a win from one of the Mussina or Maddux games. But Brett Anderson got absolutely shelled and CC Sabathia split duels with your amazing Glavine, so I was really lucky to have my RHP somehow pitch gems.
