It is always surprising in these historical dynasties when a big name player in real life gets passed over in the draft. However, I don't think that I can ever remember Babe Ruth not going first overall when he was available.
Keep up the great work!

The computer in my league always drafts very weird... pitchers for some reason always go first ... it's like one team grabs a pitcher, then all the others start to panic thinking they are going to miss out and start going after pitching, too. Frankly I was surprised that two position players (Ruth and Hornsby) went in the top three...
Anyways, this dynasty has been a lot of fun and I've gotten far more into it than I thought. I've got some (hopefully) interesting twists for the coming seasons. Maybe even a spinoff dynasty of some sort, if I can pull it off ...
As a side note, I dropped the name of one of my old friends from Arizona into the story a few pages back and didn't tell him about it. His wife did a google search on his name, trying to see where his own photography Web site might show up, and came across this dynasty. He called me last night to rag on me ... I did a search of "Arizona League" (since there really is one) and was pleased to see this come up on page two of the search results! Hope this doesn't confuse non-OOTP'ers too much...
