After a lot more thought and deliberation, I think you made excellent points, Mark. I have went back and started making some changes to my team. Bid McPhee is the best second baseman for the team, but that's not something I can afford. So I am adjusting the team fit what I could put together.

I am not trying to make this easy as much as affordable and attainable. 1900 is probably going to be a better starting off point which leaves me trying to decide on whether to keep Noodles Hahn and Tommy Corcoran.

I have finished up for now. 1900-1942 are the years I am using. One day I hope to be able to afford the older, nicer, and more expensive cards. Right now, I need to go with something I can actually do. I tried to still make it challenging but attainable while keeping integrity with the team.

Hey Joe,
I've got these cards if you're interested:
1920 W514 Rube Bressler and Pat Moran (I think you might need this World Series winning --- albeit fixed --- manager).
Both raw and ungraded. Check the scans. Both backs are clean.
PM me if you are interested.
