Interesting site. My only qualm with it is that there is no way to contact anyone that runs the site. The reason I wanted to do this is that they gave the "Brainard" Guy Hecker for the 1884 AA but failed to note that not only did he have a great year pitching, but that year became the only pitcher ever to win a batting title.

Its an interesting site at least i dont agree with all of it but its still neat.My biggest problem was the UA voting
He picks 2 st louis pitchers who were very good but without hose guys pitching the team did just as good if not better.
They went 49-11 with those 2 pitching,45-8 with other pitchers.
Bill Sweeney went 40-21(12 more wins than anyone else) for baltimore,but they went just 18-26 without him.Besides wins he also led in innings,complete games and finished 2nd in strikeouts.I would have to give it to him

Especially my favorite, Radbourne. Coupla Galvins! Nichols! Brainard himself...why are pitchers so magical? Johnson, Martinez--they still are...
