    Re: Expansion Strategies

    Reno Outlaws (can't believe a small market town like Reno is in!--thanks acclaim for putting my hometown in)

    Enzo Stadium

    Strategy: Be competitive the first year so I have more money for a dynasty next year. Drafted/signed guys who may have only 1-2 seasons with the team and then some rookies to take over next year.

    We are 10-8 so far including a 4-0 start (3 of those wins came against the other expansion team--the Kansas Owls)

    Roster:

    1B: Jeremy Giambi (.313, 1, 9)
    2B: Ray Durham (.343, 3, 12)
    SS: Craig Counsell (.262, 1, 6)
    3B: Vinnie Castilla (.222, 0, 4)
    LF: Chris Singleton (.276, 0, 13)
    CF: Darin Erstad (.326, 0, 7)
    RF: Quinton McCracken (.219, 0, 7)
    SP1: Roger Clemens (1-1, 2.18)
    SP2: Chuck Finley (2-0, 3.64)
    SP3: Aaron Sele (2-0, 3.78)
    SP4: Jason Johnson(1-2, 4.54)
    SP5: Rick Helling (1-1, 4.23)
    CL: Scott Chiasson (0-0, 4 SV, 1.13)

                    Name: Indiana Aviators

                    Stadium: The Mac

                    Division: NL Central

                    Strategy: Pretty well rounded but hitting and defense mainly. I created a pitcher that resembles I guy I used to play HS baseball with. I managed a game against the twins in spring traing and not one person scored or got to second. I won that game 7-0. i also created Tyler Durden (from fight club). Hes 19 and throws a 94mph fastball. Gee I wonder if Ill sign him to a long term.

                        Team: Alaska Glaciers
                        Stadium: Fischbach (sp?)

                        Strategy: I have lots of left handed hitters to take advantage of the stadium. I have a fairly strong pitching rotation, but weak relievers so I plan on squeezing every pitch I can get out of my starters before taking them out. Main hitters are Counsell, Hidalgo, Erstad, and Tino Martinez.
