I don’t want to hold things up when Peter drafts here. I’m playing on swinging one way as I haven’t tried either of those yet. If he doesn’t take it I’m going to use an all left handed roster. If Peter takes that one I’ll be all right handed. Just go ahead and post me after Peter picks so Lou can go

Can I get some clarification on what you mean by number 11, sluggers? Does that mean the ballpark used has to have at least an 8, and no one else can have a park with more than a 4? Or do you actually expect us to count the number of "ballpark homer" chances on the card images to figure out what players we can use? How does that team work?

Sorry any ballpark. Meant the hitter must have 8bp chances of course I would assume a hr park would be used with this team

FYI - Barry Bonds 73 HR season has 7 total bpHR chances, McGwire 70 HR season has 8, Sosa 66 HR season has 4...I don't think anyone else besides McGwire has 8 total chances.

Robert, can you give me an example of such a player?

Bonds 2001 - 4pb chances vs. L, 3 vs. R
McGwire 1998 - 4 vs. L, 4 vs. R
Sosa 1998 - 2 vs. L, 2 vs. R
Maris 1961 - 3 vs. L, 3 vs. R

Who has 8?

Or are you counting up the individual rolls (out of the 128 possible or whatever, so that a 2 is 1, 3 is 2, 4 is 3 and so on ...) in which case:

Bonds 2001 - 8 vs. R
McGwire 1998 - 8 either way
Sosa 1998 - 8 vs. R
Maris 1961 - 8 vs. R

But so does Gehrig '34, Walker '97, Vinny Castilla '98, Jay Buhner '96, Gus Zernial '53, and several hundred more players.

BallPark Homers are, generally speaking, distributed at a rate of 8 per card by that count. It is almost impossible to figure out which players would fit into which camp using that method. Or maybe I'm not smart enough to figure it out.

Maybe you could use a certain number of HR's as the cutoff? Or some other measurement?
