The Meaning of Walter Johnson

[Honus Wagner Rules]

hey, lets do a little time value of money analysis. you may be a little short compared to the Big Train. or maybe not, in which case 'can you loan me $50 until Tuesday?'

I'll have to ask my wife. :o And yes, I have heard of inflation. I wonder how much Johnson's salary is in today's dollars.

He meant nothing to the Nationals as he played for the Senators!!

I think he meant alot to the game. Arguably the greatest pitcher ever.

Actually, "Nationals" was the offical team name from 1905-1955 but the fans always called them the "Senators".

i think they weren't regularly called the senators until the 1920s - by the papers at least
