    San Diego Padres...what if they never traded Ozzie Smith?

    The 1980's and early 1990's in the National League would have looked a lot different had the Padres not traded Ozzie Smith away to the Cardinals in exchange for Gary Templeton. Teaming Smith and Gwynn for the better part of both their careers would have been historically fun. It also would...

    Did you know...

    Just a random stat/oddity I ran across today... Bob Gibson has a legendary reputation for intimidation, however he only hit a batter 102 times in his career. One less than the scary Scott Erickson. Other pitchers with more career HBP include: Pedro Astacio David Cone Aaron Sele Orel...

    What changed in 1920-ish to allow for more Homeruns?

    Being a baseball fan, I think I should know the answer to this, but I really don't. I know "rules" changed, but what rules? Were they all implemented at the same time? Other than Babe Ruth being absolutely incredible and even better than the legend, what happened to allow other mere baseball...

    Top 10 All-Time in MLB history...LEFT FIELD

    1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. This should be interesting because there are a lot of good candidates to choose from. Many HOF guys. Did Musial play LF or RF? It will be difficult with the older players because baseballreference.com only shows they played "OF". The question is, who's...

    Top 10 All-Time THIRD BASEMEN in MLB history

    1. Mike Schmidt 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. This one will complete the infield. I think Schmidt is the concensus answer at #1. After him, though, it gets interesting. There are only 10 HOF 3B (non-Negro League), so the pickings are quite slim.
