I'll try again. skunk, if you'd be so kind as to randomize a month for me, my team will consist only of players born in that random month.

I'll come back with a continuation of my theme from last time.  This time I will use a player born in each of the 1st 25 states of the union.

Skunk, I'd like to try a Ken Burns Baseball theme.  I'll take 2 players from each decade.  I'll consider 1885-1900 a decade, and then 1901-10, 1911-20, etc.  That will leave me with one more player to fill my roster and I'll choose one player from 2011.

How about "What a difference a century makes"?  All Pitchers from 1908, all Batters from 2008.

EDIT - or I could do 1888-1988 - that  would be more interesting with the 400+ IP starters ...

skunk, I've posted my team.  reference is in the names posted except for: Eddie "Cocky" Collins, Eric "Boob" McNair, "Three Finger" Brown and "Goose" Gossage.  let me know if there is too much duplication or any other problem.  i have another (better!) idea if you want me to go that way.

There's enough variation there, so it's OK.

I'm in: "Damn Yankees" - I'll go with players from the Washington Senators 1951-1968. Why these years you may ask? Career of Micky Mantle. He'll be the one exception to the all Senators roster.
