I always like trying to come up with interesting ways to let people show off their cards :)
I'm not going to contribute anything to this particular thread because i wanna see what everyone else has got.
So here's how the game works...we're going to put together a vintage dream team.
Each person can post one of their favorite cards, and you can only post a card of a position that hasn't been posted yet. Lets see how our roster ends up looking :D
I'm going to go with a 5 man pitching rotation and some bench guys just to allow more stuff to be posted. As each spot gets taken up, I'll fill in the list below with the player name and the poster's name. Don't rely on my list though as it may not be up to date...make sure you don't post a position that's already taken!
You can post pre-war or post-war...whatever you like...so lets see em!
Pitcher - Sandy Koufax (T205)
Pitcher - Satchel Paige (scmavl)
Pitcher - Warren Spahn (MilBraves)
Pitcher - Walter Johnson (ValKehl)
Pitcher - Bob Gibson (David W)
1B - Lou Gherig (Kawika)
2B - Eddie Collins (albrshbr)
SS - Ernie Banks (mrmantlecollector)
3B - Ron Santo (cubsfan102003)
Inf bench -

Since the Mick is in center, let's throw the Georgia Peach out in Left.

How about the man who broke Cobb's record for steals backing him up in left....

like to try and do as many different posters as we can, and then I might open it up for people to post more than 1 :)

Well I wasn't going to post, because I know there's a couple of "better" 3rd sackers out there, but not many. So here he is my pick for 3rd base.

And if you're taking color commentators, he could fit in there as well. Love that guy.

Since no one else has gotten us our 5th starter, how about him?

If you're referring to Santo, absolutely. I'm going to miss him on the radio for sure. More of a fan than a true "Color Commentator", but I'd prefer it that way after listening to him for so long. I think Keith Moreland will do just fine, it's just going to take some getting used to.

This guy could play a little first base for your team.

--can't use that card in this thread----somebody scribbled on it!:p
(I drool every time I see your card!) What a prize!
He's probably going to get antsy sitting on the bench, but let's put
the Say Hey Kid on the list as an outfield reserve... (cool thread, btw)

I'm really enjoying seeing all of the cards you guys are posting, great stuff! so it looks like now we need 3 backup infielders, a backup outfielder and a couple catchers and we'll be done!

Great pitching staff, but they need a catcher... how 'bout Yogi!
