Paper Baseball

I've been playing APBA baseball for more than 20 years and the league will be over at my place today to try to get some games in. This is a cards-and-dice game where you draft players from the major leagues, construct lineups, and roll the dice to see what happens based on the previous year's statistics. Because this is a continuous ownership league, you get to keep your players and there's a lot of jockeying around for young, developing talent.
( So who's on your team? )

Anyway, I'm at 4-4, so I've got a bunch of games left to play. Today's a good time to start. (We play 84 face-to-face following a 78 game computer season -- which I won! So I'll be in the playoffs one way or another...)

That Went Well

I played 10 games of APBA baseball today and went 9-1, pushing my record to 13-5 and moving me into first place.

Apparently, the team has been taking lessons from the St. Louis Cardinals...
