Rebuttal to Tedd’s Draft and Trade Review I think Hellickson is a lot better than you are giving him credit. That “B Z” will be there for about 10 years or more. The rating of the secondbaseman in the draft is a little off. Here is how I see them. …
Barry Larkin Shortstop inducted in 2011 Barry Larkin was a part of the postseason eight years, three times with his teams finishing 1st. With the Hitmen he really put himself on the map in 1992, batting .361, with 27 HRs, 101 RBIs, & 99 runs scored. Interestingly he only batted …
Frank Thomas Firstbaseman inducted in 2011 The Big Hurt has to be one of the most appropriate nickname a ballplayer ever had, because Frank Thomas always put a big hurt on the baseball. In 1995 with the Dreamteam, he had one of the best seasons a player could dream of, …

Tom Glavine inducted in 2011 Tom Glavine had a pretty unexciting start in the Illowa APBA League. Winning just two games in his first years, I’m not sure anyone paid much attention to him. After a ten-win season in his third season in 1990, his trade value was as high …
During the All-Star weekend, Tedd mentioned to me that the IAL Player Register was one year out of date. So I got on it. It’s now updated with 2010 stats. While I was doing that, I thought I do the all-time leaderboards which is a fun for me. Here is …
