As a childhood White Sox fan, I’d choose Wilbur Wood over Dick Allen, and maybe make Allen a great choice for the Phils.

In addition to Crandall, a good choice for the Braves would be Ralph Garr.

He also didn't even stick to his own rules about the years... neither did a lot of other people to follow but at least they didn't set the rules.

I thought the same thing. Kind of hard to have the Mariners in there when they didn't come to be until 1977 I believe. I also see one person has Jacoby Ellsbury and Tim Lincecum on the list who are still playing and we have no idea what their numbers will be at the end

Jay Buhner
Mark Langston
Harold Reynolds
Phil Bradley was entertaining in his time (Although his stats are way lower than I remember)
