Using Underutilized Players Topic

DoctorkZ started mentioning some players who have been seldom used, if used at all, in the Bounties thread as a potential idea for a league or even a challenge... and I thought it might just be fun to share players we each use or have used that have few to no instances on their PH. I'll let Doc talk about Dan Casey, so as not to steal his thunder (he's certainly a great find), but here's a few I've been using or am about to try (name links to PH, stats I've gotten so far below):

As i get time I will put something together along the lines of a bargain bin/dumpster diving theme.

Here are a few from the list I'm working on. Eventually I will have a good list of players that will get used in 2, 3 or 4 man rotations...

A few of these guys should be getting much more use...

1984 Joaquin Andujar
1910 George Bell
1919 Leon Cadore
1886 Dan Casey
1886 Ed Cushman (used once)
1892 Jesse Duryea
1892 Frank Dwyer
1985 Charlie Hough
1911 Bobby Keefe (used once)
1926 Ray Kremer
1927 Ray Kremer
2012 Kyle Lohse
1919 Carl Mays
1991 Mike Morgan
1888 Hank O'Day
1927 Tommy Thomas
1919 Lefty Williams

Any of them are certainly worthy of at least a spot at the back of a rotation. Most have enough stamina to take a regular turn without needing too much bullpen help. The list will eventually offer a good number of post expansion arms.

That sounds fun I'd be in on, something like players with no more than 5 previous teams. I'm still new and figuring my way around but the experiments and endless fun ideas is why I'm hooked after bored somewhere else. In about a week I'll already have my 4th OL under way, and I think only my 1st team will be a 100 game loser. But I'd finish last in an idea like this and it would be worth it. Site mail me if someone wants to head this up with ideas on specifics and prep time -

Bierbauer is a great find. I've used him a few times in theme leagues.

Hey DoctorKz...How do I get to the salary history page?...I run into it once in a while, but don’t have the ability to find it consistently...
