2021 Season 2 (Bronze league B211), week of 3/30 -4/5
Tougher season, buried in same division with Bronx Bombers, one of the top 3 whales in all of OOTP. Still got promoted though as 16 teams still move up. Blades was the best pull from this week.
I am a few weeks in now into my “cocoon and butterfly” strategy. I’m saving virtually all PP until at least early May, then planning to use stored PP and likely a $100 Perfect Points purchase to make a big push once the market is lower and try to get a few stud SP’s and some other decent pieces.

Featured Card of the Week:
55 RP Al Hrabosky, LHP, 1978 KC Snapshot
Being a relief pitcher pre-1980’s was such a thankless job. Take a look at Al Hrabosky. “The Mad Hungarian” could rack up around 7 strikeouts per 9 innings in an era where strikeouts were hard to come by. His 1975 season with the Cardinals was somewhat shocking - he finished with a 1.66 ERA and 1.079 WHIP and led the league with 22 saves, finished 3rd in Cy Young voting, 8th in MVP voting, yet somehow didn’t make the all-star team! In OOTP he features rare stuff for a left-handed iron-tier reliever. This makes him an important asset in iron tournaments or historical salary cap tournaments.
