Default Maybe Si Johnson?

Call me biased. Si Johnson, of Sheridan, IL (my hometown), could have made the set as he was an established big league pitcher for the then-lowly last place 1932 Cincinnati Reds. He tied for the most wins on the Reds staff that year with 13 and was second in IP with 245. But, maybe with ten Reds already in the set, one more would have been too many. I'll dig-up a scan of an ersatz 1933 Goudey card I made to honor him and post it.

Greenberg's first season was '33 so I can give Goudey a break for missing him. Appling was in his 3rd season so a bit more established. Either way it would be great to have each of them as well as Johnson as a manager in the set.

Some of the strange selections such as Speaker may have been include players from more regions across the country to pique interest.

As a side note, Appling missed '44 and most of '45 due to military service, probably would have made the 3,000 hit club if he played those seasons.

Al Lopez and Joe Medwick would have been good. AND we can't forget Van Lingle Mungo.
