Same old, same old...

After another week at the Diamond level with every team having the same players... all the more reason to never want to buy those players. I've decided there is no reason to want to go back there. I wouldn't spend a penny on "perfect points" just to be able to buy the same team as everybody else. Whoop-de-do what fun.
I'll let my team muddle along with players I think measue up without buying Johnson, Koufax, Speaker, Collins and the rest of the annointed few.
Your team can have players with numbers just as good as the "annointed players" but that won't matter. Neither does actual baseball sense. Yeah, I know, its a game... but not one based in any sort of baseball reality.
Maybe its easier to just annoint 3 or 4 pitchers and 3 or 4 hitters and try to get everyone to buy them, even though the same player wont play the same on teams that are almost identical to another.
Someday the OOTP gods may realize that a variation in the number of good players could producer more decision making and different combinations of players that make for more interesting games and challenge you to try different player combinations. That would stimulate a real attempt to build a perfect team and not a predetermined one.
