Figured this would be good for discussion... Any players you'd replace? Some saying that Lofton got snubbed...

Damn... Bingo Smith or Kenny Lofton?

I'd have to go with Lofton.

Carlos is a good choice, but I would have to go with Freddie Glover of the Barons.

Also, while it is hard to go against Bob Lemon, just from a Cleveland perspective, and what he meant to the town, I'd have to give #21 to Rocky Colavito.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

Saw this online as well … that’s a bad break for Bernie!!

At first glance, I would put Clay Matthews in over Bieber and Frank Minnifield in over Allen. I also agree w/Fate about Lofton. Loved Bingo, but Lofton was really good.

I'd put Rob Burnett over Drew Gooden.

Bummer for Mark Price running up against Thome.

I'd put Price ahead of Thome. The latter was the King of Garbage Time Stats. Price was a true competitor who produced when it counted.

Colavito over Baker


At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

I have to say that this was a good idea by whoever put it together. Great conversation starter in the bar or at small get-togethers.

Rocky started wearing #6 in 1958 with his first stint in Cleveland

In 1965 after returning back to Cleveland Rocky wore #21

Lemon can keep 21....put Rocky in #6

Lemon was an all-time great. Your solution makes sense to me.
