Here are the Round 2 standings for Leagues 1 and 2. Only 2 teams per person allowed. A qualifying team gets precedent over a non-qualifying team (with the better record), if there is a conflict.

When you list your salary, added player, cut player and new salary, also please list which league this is in, so I can keep things straight.

League 1
Original: $152,034,397
Add: 1906 Doc White - $9,597,234
Drop: 1894 Bid McPhee - $5,253,198
New: $156,378,433

League 4
Original: $123,391,491
Add: 1938 Hank Greenberg - $9,597,234 (from 3DAYROTATION's Team)
Drop: Here's something you don't see every day (only because it's 1935): 1935 Babe Ruth - $465,389
New: $131,895,347

I need pitching 100 times more than hitting, but the pitchers that are available weren't much better (or any better) than what I already have. Therefore, MORE OFFENSE!

League 4
Original: $132,546,630
Add: 1941 Ted Williams - $18,998,790 (from footballmm11's team)
Drop: 1937 George Selkirk ' $3,576,385
New: $147,969,035

My team finished 4th in pitching and 16th in hitting in the previous round. So, choosing a hitter (especially an awesome one) was the obvious way to go.

League 1
Original: $143,659,738
Add: 1905 Christy Mathewson - $14,341,519
Drop: 1902 Jack Calhoun - $200,000

Add 1912 Heinie Zimmerman $7,527,188
Cut - 1907 Dave Brain $4,220,301
New - $148,381,964

…and now I watch and cry as schwarze and footballmm11 add one of the available super supreme pitchers to their already dominant rosters

League 2

Now that all the round 1 drafts are over, I will admit that my strategy (in most of the round 1 drafts) was to go heavy on offense and light on starting pitching for the specific purpose of being able to get a more impactful upgrade during the mini-draft. Seems like footballmm11 had the same idea as he went big on offense in pretty much all the round 1 drafts. (You will note that I haven't taken a single hitter in any of the mini-drafts, although I did focus a bit more on pitching in the later eras).
