Nice. I considered him for a long time cause of all the triples he hit.

Thanks. He will be perfect to platoon with Medwick. Triples are -1 in Ebbets, but if I am at a +1, or 2.. or THREE triples park, I dont care who is on the mound, Wahoo Sam will be in there. His HoF numbers are often top 20, he is talked about as a top 10 outfielder. Once again, would love to know more about his D.

Disgusting.

I can't remember since I looked at so many players, but I think I read something I didn't like on his D that made me opt for Minoso instead.

9 seasons in TOP 3 in RBI, topped only by Anson, Ruth and Gehrig.10 seasons in TOP 3 in Hits, topped only by Cobb, Rose, and Musial
10 seasons in TOP 3 in Total Bases, topped only by Aaron, Mays and Ruth
As for Defense, James in his Win Shares book rates him at "C", but with one Gold Glove season.

"Crawford was nicknamed Wahoo Sam after his birthplace, Wahoo, Nebraska. A former barber, Crawford started out with the Cincinnati Reds in 1899 and hit a then-astounding total of 16 HR in 1901. In 1903 he jumped to the Tigers and led the American League in triples with 25. What is often forgotten about Crawford was his power to drive the ball over fences as well as between fielders; he hit 97 career HR, and at his retirement held the AL career record with 70. In 1908, Crawford became the only player in baseball history to lead both leagues in homers.
Although they disliked each other, Cobb and Crawford worked closely together on the bases. Cobb, either by steals or by a triple, would often be standing at third when Crawford came to bat. Crawford was often walked. Crawford would jaunt easily to first and then, on cue from Cobb, switch into high gear and take off for second. At the same time, Cobb would break for home. "Sometimes they'd get him," Crawford would later recall, "sometimes they'd get me, and sometimes they wouldn't get either of us." "

Really? Who doesn't like mushrooms? Very low in carbs and great in/on so many foods.BTW...I've cut the carrots and mushrooms, carrots are boiling and oven is preheating. I'll pull out my turkey burgers next and season them, then bake them w/ the mushrooms. I'll add the carrots to the oven after they've boiled a bit.....that's fine, but mushrooms?

OK, everything is going. Turkey burgers have been seasoned (salt/galric/olive oil/pepper) and have been put into the over, along w/ the mushroom. Once the carrot soften a bit, we'll add them to the oven for the last 7-8 minutes.sounds good to me.Really? Who doesn't like mushrooms?
