Saturday +2830 ** Question of the Day

[edpit]

A much better day yesterday. One we would all love to have anytime of the year. Phillies and Cardinals let me down yesterday, but everyone else did their job and made it a winning day. Yesterday, No Partials asked a question in my thread of All-time best pitchers. We listed a few but Im sure there are many more who would deserve a spot on that list. Todays question is on base-runners. Interesting question. Things to consider when making your choices today: STOLEN BASES, OBP, RUNS, 2B hits and 3B hits. I will list my picks of All-time baserunners after I post my Saturday plays.

I have been playing around with a system similar to SSI and fhmesq44. Its only in the first week of testing but it looks promising. It is currently 12-9 and +596 in only 21 plays!!!! I will share with you all in about 2 weeks. It is nothing that complex and very easy to follow.



My answer to the question I posed earlier in this post:
(Runs, Stolen Bases, OBP)
Rickey Henderson, 2295, 1406, .401
Ted Williams, 1798, 709, .482
Lou Brock, 1610, 938, .343
Ty Cobb, 2245, 892, .424

Special consideration to
Billy Hamilton, played in late 1800's to early 1900's. His best year was 1894, in which he stole 98 bases, scored 192 runs, had a OBP of .517 in ONLY 129 games!!!

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY TODAY AND GOOD LUCK HOWEVER YOU PLAY THEM!!!!! :thumbsup2:

Just got back to my computer. Great start to the day! My 5 best baserunners are;
1. Luis Aparicio (without him the Sox never score)
2. Maury Wills (without him the Dodgers never score)
3. Ty Cobb (terrified all infielders)
4. Lou Brock (spark to all the great Cardinal clubs)
5. Carlos Beltran (most productive baserunner in mlb history)

I sure enjoy your choices

No Partials,

Nice selections on top baserunners! Aparicio, Wills, and upcoming base-threat Beltran are some great choices. All great selections of great baserunners!!!!

Pleasure doing this. My dad gave me a ton of late 50's to mid 60's baseball and football cards and I learned a hell of alot of information just reading the cards. Its nice to be able to bring out some of these cards and just look at them!

There are plenty of other categories out there. What's next? Thank you for posting in my thread about this. I love old stats!!!!
