Has anybody ever had a lineup where all eight regular position players produced 100 RBIs for a season?

Thru 75 games, I have a Fenway '67 squad that has a shot to accomplish that:

Furillo 73 RBIs (he already had a 15-day DL stint or that would be higher)
Snider 58
Yount 55
M. May 53
Cepeda 46
Doerr 46
Schmidt 45
Yaz 42

Yaz is the low-man partly b/c he's batting in the No. 2 hole, but Yount has gotten his primarily batting leadoff.

why that's impossible! :shock: can't be done!

best of luck,seems to me like that would be an accomplishment of epic proportions

It can be done...I came close twice...

I had two teams accomplish this feat...

[b:fbe5faaa17]Thermal Assault[/b:fbe5faaa17] Home run derby w/ DH so this shouldn't count.[b:fbe5faaa17] 87.05 mil team[/b:fbe5faaa17]

Name -- RBI -- HR

Parrish -- 108 -- 44
York -- 148 --44
Hornsby -- 210 -- 67
Bando -- 122 -- 37
Ripkin -- 138 -- 36
Greenberg -- 197 -- 66
Doby -- 105 -- 36
Alou -- 139 -- 36
Canseco -- 126 -- 54

[b:fbe5faaa17]Thermal Ranchers[/b:fbe5faaa17] Straight up power team no DH[b:fbe5faaa17] 79.89 mil team[/b:fbe5faaa17]

Name -- RBI -- HR

Carter -- 118 -- 35
Gehrig -- 154 -- 43
Gordon -- 106 -- 33
Bando -- 129 -- 32
Banks -- 143 -- 59
Yaz -- 105 -- 35
Doby -- 114 --37
Ruth -- 162 -- 79

FYI my stats are from an $80 mil TSN autoleague, no DH. I actually spent a fair amount on pitching, incl. 2 SPs over $4 mil and 1 over $3 mil. and have a team ERA that is around 5.30, somewhat inflated by Ray Sadecki.

The Thermal Ranchers were an 80 million auto league team.

I had one team, [b:e6b9f93f33]Black Sabbath Paranoid, [/b:e6b9f93f33] come within 2 RBIs of this feat. Garvey, my no. 8 hitter, had 99, and Yount, my leadoff hitter, had 99. The team scored a total of 1101 runs!

Closest I ever came was with this team, a 101 win championship team, $80m cap. 6 players with 100 + RBI, and a 3b platoon that netted 105 RBI. Only the CF position (Dawson) failed to reach the 100 RBI mark.
