the HOF Standard stat is very interesting. Very few guys even near that magical 50.

7.5 seasons in WC, 1.5 in Wil, 1 in Washington

I wonder who's hat he will be wearing in the HOF if he plays out this contract with me? Probably will have to win a title...something he couldn't do in the Windy City.

The only think he'll have after he plays out his contract with you, is a LOT of money.

Is that the criteria. What about the black ink and the other one?

[Jistic]

Wow. The Maine Guides, you think pitching. But they have been by far the most dangerous offense in league history.

They have scored 7861 runs since the leagues inception.

2nd place is DISTANT
7364

Wow.

My team has surrendered the least runs of any non-expansion team.

More good news. I was able to run the season metrics (ERA+, OPS+, etc for the missing years. To do so I needed to put in some dummy park factors so for each team I used the average of the years that are known. It's not exact but figured it was better to have something in there to give us a close approximation.

Check out Kellum's OPS+ in the first 3 years...

The only thing still missing are Win Shares from 1978-1980 but we won't be able to recover these without the league files.

Probably because the longest career possible right now is only 10 years.

EG is at 37 I think.

[Clay]

Corrigan is 54. That's the highest I've seen.

Corrigan is 54. That's the highest I've seen.

Lumar is at 54 too. He and Corrigan are the only two I've seen over 50.

[Jistic]

Theodore's a 46. Any way we can sort players on this criteria?

Surprised Hoover is that high with only playing a few years. I still think he merits founders wing consideration.

[Guest]

I think Joe Reyes does too. He basically did as a hitter what Kuramochi did as a pitcher, have a ridiculously insane season, but unlike Kuramochi he actually went on to be a decent player for a few more years and was part of a championship team.

Nominate him.

Which reminds me; isn't it time for hall nominations now? I'm not sure who is eligible that desrves consideration.

I actually miscalculated his eligibility and thought it was next year.

It's funny, Pat (and others) was/were so against Reyes because he had only one great season but was/were all up on the Kuramochi bandwagon.
