In Response To: Advantage of strong players (Florin Popa)

As a new player, I see the pro's and con's behind publishing PR and saying that a person who plays a lower PR is a better player. This is a game, after all, and isn't the bottom line our number of wins? Think about baseball. The pitcher with the lowest ERA is not always on the team that plays in the World Series. Why? Because they may not have the luck of having George Brett at 3rd, Charlie Hustle at first and Roberto Clemente in right field. So, there is a luck factor whether the pitcher is part of that fantasy team. If they are, they may make it to the WS. If not, well, they have a nice ERA but no rings to show for their effort. Does that make them the best? Or is the pitcher with the 3rd best ERA but have three rings have the right to call HIMSELF the best? Great discussions on this topic, lately, tho.
