  • Help making an all-time roster

    I'm making an all-time team roster league and was wondering if I could get some help. I've got about half a team but I need help filling in the blank spots. The thread where I'm showing my progress on this is at Fantasy Baseball and Gaming in the thread "Creating a new historical sim league" if anyone wants to check it out. Any help will be appreciated. Here is the Braves' roster I have as of right now. Corrections are welcomed.

    Here's what I think you should do. If you're including active players, this is where you should go.

    Pos Braves
    C Joe Torre
    1B Fred Tenney
    2B Glenn Hubbard
    3B Eddie Mathews
    SS Rabbit Maranville
    LF Rico Carty
    CF Hugh Duffy
    RF Hank Aaron
    C Javy Lopez
    IF Chipper Jones
    IF Jeff Blauser
    OF Dale Murphy
    OF Andruw Jones
    OF Wally Berger
    Util Herman Long
    Util Bobby Lowe
    SP Kid Nichols
    SP Phil Niekro
    SP Greg Maddux
    SP Warren Spahn
    SP Tom Glavine
    SP Vic Willis
    RP Gene Garber
    RP Greg McMichael
    RP Don McMahon
    RP Cecil Upshaw
    RP Rick Camp
    RP John Rocker
    CL John Smoltz

    Now if you're NOT taking active players, that makes it a bit easier.

      You might want to include:

      JOHNNY LOGAN - SS
      MAX SURKONT - P
      LEW BURDETTE - P
      BOB BUHL - P
      CHET NICHOLS - P
      JOEY JAY - P
      GENE CONLEY - P

      Most of these played for both the Boston and Milwaukee Braves in the late 1940's, but mostly in the 1950's.

      If I think of others, I'll post them.

          I think Blauser was better than Logan. And Burdette and Buhl, well yeah, I could have done them. Conley's on the bubble. Surkont and Nichols spent just four seasons with the Braves, they weren't really all that great. Kind of like Conley. Joey Jay's Braves career doesn't have enough meat to it, you know?

          And before you say it, I realize that a few of the relief pitchers have short Braves careers, but I wanted majority or exclusive relievers. So I had no choice.
