I appreciate the suggestion, but what metrics (FIP, BABIP, etc) should I use to evaluate talent? Bear in mind also that this is an online league and prying 3 star pitchers out of a human GM's hands is kind of difficult. I'm trying to find pitchers that might be overlooked at a casual glance; some hidden talent guy that I might be able to wrestle from an unsuspecting GM. Because I'm evil.
