2chair:  Assume you mean 1907 Addie Joss.  He was a bit stiff by 2007.  Other than the typo, your roster is good, as are all the others submitted so far.

Also, you must not be over fifty if you never heard of Lerrin LaGrow.  In the ALCS in 1972, he hit Bert Campaneris with a pitch, which Campy thought was an attempt to injure him, so the Oakland SS threw his bat at LaGrow from just in front of home plate.  Can't imagine how long a guy would be suspended for that today!

I remember those A-s teams, but no, I'm not quite 50. I will have to google Lerrin LaGrow now.

I forgot when I wrote this note to 2chair, that I'd made a rule this time that the Wild Card picks are not allowed to be Hall of Fame players.

So, I have to send 2chair back to the database.  Hopefully everyone else will see this note in time to avoid the same error.
