daddyzander:  Yes, that's almost perfect ... just list the seasons used for the players so I can make sure you've followed the theme rules.  If you post your team at the same time, I'll verify it then.  League # is MLB106283

Still room? If so, I'll submit to the torture.

I have my team about ready. I'm have some HOFers, some guys like Willie Wilson and Chris Carpenter who were All Stars and ....some guys who must have hot wives or something. I can't remember any other team with such a disparity between the top 15 and bottom 10

First glance at my pages, I'm probably going to have to use both Door Number Two picks on SPs - not complaining, but I hate to pass up a chance on Ruth!  Not set in stone, though.

I'll try again

specsman:  Thanks for coming back!  Hopefully these 12 pages will reward you:

1.  1995 Major League Baseball First Base (both leagues, any two players who appeared in a game at first)
2.  1890 Columbus Solons batting (includes pitchers)
3.  SS  Shawon Dunston 1985-2002
4.  P  Brett Jodie 2001

5.  1913 Major League Baseball Cumulative Pitching (an interesting category, giving career records of all active pitchers through 1913 -- so, you can use any two pitchers active in 1913, in any season of their careers up to and including 1913)
6.  1992 Atlanta Braves
7.  OF  Ron LeFlore 1974-82
8.  SS  Ed Cihocki 1932-33

9.  2005 Major League Baseball Baserunning (every player who had at least one plate appearance -- some AL pitchers not included)
10.  2B  Larry Lintz 1973-78
11.  OF  Bud Hafey 1935-39
12.  C  Pop Snyder 1885-91

I used to have a peculiar interest in Larry Lintz when I was a kid.  He was mostly a pinch runner, but did have a couple of seasons where they tried to use him as a part-time infielder.  Between him and LeFlore you've got the start of a speedster team.
