Heroic Performances

PostThu May 09, 2019 11:29 am

A Heroic Performance (or great bang for the buck) is getting a lot of performance out of a low dollar player. I just had a couple and wondered if anyone else had some to share: Here's mine: 30 wins from 2
pitchers with a combined value of $1.75M

TEAM: Vampire Batts, ATG8, $80M, Auto League 439320
PLAYERS:
Jeff Sellers, $0.52M, 14-7 with 4.28 ERA
Gil Heredia, $1.23M, 16-7 with 4.41 ERA

Thanks for those. Wow, Heredia 16-2, but he is sort of the Heroic King. I like the Tunnel 9-1 season too, awesome.
It is interesting that these are all pitchers. I don't have any examples of this happening with hitters, except maybe in $30 and $40M leagues I have played in.

I generally focus on the pitchers, but I bet there are some good seasons out there from, off the top of my head, the Wiggins/backman platoon, 1.96m joe Sewell, 1.18 Vince Coleman, .87 Jim Fregosi, .73 bob thurman, 1.21 Cecil Travis, etc. Would love to see someone post good seasons from those or others..:

OK, I found a hitter. Maybe not quite as good as Allison, but a slightly cheaper player in Bill Melton at 1.82M, 25 2B, 28 HR, 83 RBI

Enough of this discussion about Bill Melton and Jim Fregosi. They suck. Don't use them. That is all. Nothing to see here. Move along.
