Passion Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Since polls seem to be the hip thing to do nowadays...I thought itd be cool to do a baseball player oriented one - to make an all-time great team. Im going to make these nomination threads for each postion (with closers getting a thread as well) and then when we amass a good number of candidates, We will vote on them with the winner getting immortalized in MarlinBaseball.com lore forever. Any player, who has ever played, may be nominated, since this is an all-time team. Please try not to nominate more than 2 or 3 on your own, as this gets everyone involved. Next Up: Manager Top 2 make up the staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
