arrangement of the hitting profiles

[shif6]

The hitting profiles are sorted by first name instead of last name I assume that is a mistake. I can't figure out to rearrange it. I love the format of the tiers. Very cool!

We'll change it and re-attach.

But for now, highlight row 7 and then everything under it to the end of the profiles.

Data>sort

Make sure header row selected, sort by name.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks, it worked. I should have figured it out. Enjoy the Super Bowl.

I concur this will be a great snapshot of what is left in an auction and where you and others could potentially spend your money based on needs.

I'm going to be completely honest myself, I really like the format as well. I changed it up from how I used to do it -- I really thinks it helps you focus on the player and his contributions in terms of stats instead of just "value". Yes, value is important, but there is more to it than that. There is no tangible difference between a $16 player and an $18 player. Add 3 points of BA and 1 HR to the $16 player, take away 3 points of BA and a steal from the $18 player and they could very well flip-flop.

At any given point, you can consider the top-5 remaining players in that
position to be of similar value and make your decision based on team
needs in terms of statistics and balance.

For clarification, when you say the top-5 remaining players in that position, are you reading down the playing position (i.e. 1st basemen) or reading across values ($30-$26)? My guess is you are denoting playing positions.

Is it possible to add a stat line on the tiers or is it just too much work? On the other hand, it looks as if there is not much space. Perhaps just for sb's or hr's?

By position -- but by extension, it also means a $14 2B and a $16 1B are basically the same -- as will be explained in a couple of essays on the way.

It's not so much the time, I think it should take me less than 15 minutes to write some Excel code to do it automatically. It is the convenience for printing.

If that is not a problem, PM me with the specific league size and I will beta test my "15 minutes" theory.

Todd, I am in leagues of various descriptions including a standard 5x5 AL. If it works for that it should work for anything I would think.
