Here are the most commonly selected players (over $500K)... Not surprisingly, most are short inning SPs which are basically used as RPs in this theme. I highlighted the expense players (red = pitcher, blue = hitter)...

Using the number oif times a player is taken and weighting that by salary, I calculate what I call a cookie score. If every single player you rostered was only taken once (by you), your Cookie Score would be 1.00. Here are the cookie scores for each owner, sorted from high to low.

Ranking low on Cookie Score is generally a negative sign, but maybe this league could be the exception. Some of the most commonly chosen players (not counting the "RPs") weren't even on my list.

I found one secret weapon who isn't listed here. I'm gonna hold the name until someone yells "Play ball!".

I'm curious how many people factored in pitcher hitting.

I took it into account. I didn't go full-on like schwarze did, but I wanted guys who could somewhat turn the lineup over. I went with Ferguson (.253/.346/.318) and Conway (.275/.320/.377)

I was already in a phase where I was building a bunch of teams around leadoff-hitting pitchers. I tend to do this sometimes with other strategies and it hardly works, so I bet this comes back to bite me in the ***
