[Bogart]

Best one yet

Simply a classic.

 

[Nipsey]

I'm going to sure up my D up the middle and take:

OZZIE SMITH

He'll bat 9th and teaming w/ Morgan make the top DP combo in the league.

He holds records for the most double plays and assists ever for a shortstop. In 1992, he earned his 14th consecutive Gold Glove to break his own record. For the entire decade of the 80s and into the mid-90s, Smith was simply the best defensive player in the National League.

One of his best seasons came in 1987 when he hit .303, stole 43 bases and drove in 75 runs. His efforts brought him a second-place finish in National League MVP.  he finished w/ 580 stolen bases.

really, really solid pick. Smith is a stud when you can look outside the box and past the power numbers. Tops in defense, speed on the basepaths, and not bad all around numbers. According to James, Smith could have gotten into the HOF on his bat and steals alone, plus with the glove he was a lock.Actually had typed Smith in when I took Ripken.

Plus, he was king of the backflip. Nothing fires up a crowd more than a backflip to start the game. Very intimidating to the other team. It's these intangibles that often get overlooked when assembling an all-time team.

Exactly. Along w/ Lou Brock's juggling ability, my team is jiggy.

Dammit, we always seem to have 4 straight people here... starting right after the person who is actually up.

tough to argue with 280+ wins and 3700 Ks.not in love with the pick myself, but he put up some good seasons, and was really hurt by bad, bad, bad teams.

The 75' Twins were 76-83......not that bad. Actually the Twins were 573 - 548 from 70' through 76'. Then he won a WS with the Twins in 87' so don't blame it on them.

How cute Pickles has a crush

 

[Koya]

Looks like we have hit a log jam. I will be gone from about 5-9 tonight, might bleed into 10. But will be back then, ready to make a pick, if we get that far. (If we make good progress in the next 25 min, Ill be able to get a list).

Wow. Some of this Blyleven & bad team stuff is myth.After leaving the Twins in 76 to Texas the Rangers go 170-154

To the Pirates in 78 who go 269-216

To the Indians who go 335-416 :X but mainly two bad seasons; 71-91 and 60-102

Back to the Twins in 86 who go 247-239

Finishes 89-92 with Anaheim who go 324-324.

Overall it looks more average than bad. Seems a big difference if one of his main arguments for the HOF is being able to rise above the bad teams around him.
