great, 10 in. I'll make a pick after 2 more so I can get a league number going and start checking rosters.

Can we still use one of the exclusive players if he's on the team of one of our links, or are they off limits?

Someone has picked Ed Delahanty, so we can't use him as our exclusive, but if he's on the team of one of our links, can we use him?

Good question. In order to avoid people having to redo their connections and risk scrapping their roster, the combo itself is exclusive, but combo players can appear on other teams through connections and connection teams.

Great idea for a theme, I'm in. I like the symmetry of 19th century Billy Hamilton to 20th century Billy Hamilton, as follows:

Lave Cross played with Walter Johnson for the 1907 Washington Senators


Walter Johnson played with Buddy Myer for the 1926 Washington Senators


Buddy Myer played with Mickey Vernon for the 1940 Washington Senators


Mickey Vernon played with Roger Maris for the 1958 Cleveland Indians


Roger Maris played with Ted Simmons for the 1968 St. Louis Cardinals


Ted Simmons played with John Smoltz for the 1988 Atlanta Braves


John Smoltz played with Ryan Ludwick for the 2009 St. Louis Cardinals
