Nev,
Your list says to me that you infrequently play in Yankee 56 or Dunn?
I have used Mule Haas, Ben Oglivie, Larry Doby, Selkirk there.
Doby's D and LH power is good to hit 5th, Selkirk isn't bad for a 2 or 3 hitter, recent season he had .400 obp, 28 HR, 100 runs, 90 rbi. And Oglivie can fluctuate between .220 and .250 for season totals, but usually gets me 40+ HR, 100 RBI in Y56.
Though I would not put Doby and Oglivie on the same team, since they would basically occupy the same spot in the order.
I tried Haas once for about a half-season. He was on pace for 100 rbi and 30 hr.... while hitting close to .300.
otherwise, I have used Reggie Smith (good and god awful), Rosen (OK), Furillo (would use him again), and Ripper (good and mediocre).
I have been heavily tempted to try Donie for his 1 and obp, but his errors scare the daylights outta me.
