Geez. Cheat codes and such. This thread is now reminding me of Monty Python. IMO, Chris S and others gave sound explanations and advice. But alas, I don't think the recipients of said advice understand or have looked at the cards or the game mechanics, especially when referring to the real life stats as a way of evaluating a card in this simulation. I can't resist the recall...

Peasant 1: We have found a witch, may we burn her?
(cheers)
Vladimir: How do you known she is a witch?
P2: She looks like one!
Woman: I'm not a witch! I'm not a witch!
V: ehh... but you are dressed like one.
V: There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.
P1: Are there? Well then tell us! (tell us)
V: Tell me... what do you do with witches?
P3: Burn'em! Burn them up! (burn burn burn)
V: So, why do witches burn? (long pause)
P2: Cuz they're made of... wood?
V: Gooood.
V: So, how do we tell if she is made of wood?
P1: Build a bridge out of her!
V: Ahh, but can you not also make bridges out of stone?
P1: Oh yeah...
V: Does wood sink in water?
P1: No
P3: No. It floats!
P1: Let's throw her into the bog! (yeah yeah ya!)
V: What also floats in water?
P1: Bread
P3: Apples
P2: Very small rocks
P1: Cider
P3: Grape gravy
P1: Cherries
P3: Mud
King: A Duck! (all look and stare at king)
V: Exactly! So, logically...
P1(thinking): If she weighs the same as a duck... she's made of wood!
V: And therefore, (pause & think)
P3: A witch!

Ha.

It's really pretty simple. If you did an AS PLAYED REPLAY ( which many people do with the windows game) and Glavine faced the exact same lineups he did in 1998 his ERA would be right where it was in real life more often than not.
