JoshPR Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Ok I'm bored and coming from the other thread about mark about all time pitchers. Ok now there's a catch, players you've seen(in person, tv, whatever) example I was born in 1975 so I'll be talking about players anywhere from 80-81 on, give it a 5-6 year period, so if you were born in 85 don't talk about dick Allen.. Ohh and only one choice you can maybe do a split for one player, can't go agh DH Thomas/Franco and third crede/Ventura, can only do this once... Make a 25 man roster My is..... LF Magglio ordonez CF. Lance Johnson RF. Harold Baines 3B. Robin Ventura SS. Ozzie Guillen 2B. Joey Cora 1B. Paul Konerko DH. Frank Thomas C. Carlton Fisk SP. Jack McDowell SP. Alex Fernandez SP. Floyd Bannister SP. Mark buehrle SP. Lamar Hoyt RP. Roberto Hernandez RP. Matt Thornton RP. Bobby Thigpen RP. Keith foulke RP. Scott radinsky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Fisk had a career year in 1985. Plus Thomas was better in 1994 imo, than 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabiness42 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Sorry, I meant to put 1994 for Frank and have fixed it, but I will stick with 1983 for Fisk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) 1970 Luis Aparicio 1967 Joel Horlen 1968 Tommy John 1966 Gary Peters Any Hoyt Wilhelm from 1963 to 1968 ERA usually under 2.00 and whip 5 out of 6 years under 1.0 in relief. 1971 Wilbur Wood 10.0 WAR .yes you read that right. Frank deserves any 1st base spot but hard not to find a place for ... 1972 Dick Allen and his 1.023 OPS and 199 OPS+, 9.3 WAR. 1965 Eddie Fisher 4th in MVP votes and WHIP under 1.0.

cabiness42 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Vazquez?! Javy had a pretty awesome year in 2007. 3.74 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in an extreme hitters park. 4.29 K/BB ratio also. We forget how good he was in 2007 because of how bad he was in 2006 and 2008. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We forget how good he was in 2007 because of how bad he was in 2006 and 2008. That's because we weren't in contention, and he thrives when nothing is expected of him. It just seemed odd that you put him on there when you didn't choose one starter from 2005. They pretty much all had better years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Buehrle's 2001 and 2005 are pretty much a toss-up, so I wouldn't argue with someone who would swap out those years. Javy's 2007 beat Garland & Contreras' 2005 on WHIP and K/BB, and Garland & Contreras won on ERA. It was a very close call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray durham was one of favorites growing up but I didn't really pay attention to stats or defense back then. Looking at his stats now, he looks like the far superior player to me. Is there a reason you'd take cora over him? Actually iguchi would probably be better too. I'm not trying to criticize. I just don't get what cora brings.
