Hooterville and Brigadoon both broke clean from the gate and set the early pace, with Annandale yet to see action. The comments of the others is why OL is so great. You're generally in a race with folks you can compete with. As for the similar lineups, I understand why people do what they do. To me, it's fine, just not for me. I don't replace my players unless I have some feeling for the replacement (and he needs to be better). Some players will just never play for me because I didn't like them for some reason, often inexplicable. For example, couldn't abide Pete Rose, Jeff Bagwell, or Mike Piazza, just off the top of my head. I think Bill Skowron has reached the limit of his effectiveness, but I still hang with him because he was one of the few Yankees I really liked growing up. Now, soon as I can afford a Ted Klusczewski or Willie McCovey, or a Will Clark, that could easily change.
