there's 3 pages of Switch-Hitting Short Stops. most never will be used due to Fielding. historically. with the AB/PA nom requirement, don't know if there are that many LHB SS's left in MLB database?

Here are three lh ss for those not adverse to using unknown names...no guarantee as to defense...

1884 Jack Rowe
1887 Sam Wise
1891 Frank Shugart

Wise the only 2 in that group. 2e72

Thanks Bill.

I was looking at the Sam Wise card in the viewer last night. It is a good offensive card. Should be an e36 at worst. From what I've seen Strat usually cuts the e-rating down to somewhere between 42% and 50% of the historical e-rating when it normalizes them for players from the early days of baseball.

To clarify, I'm not opposed to players I've never heard of, just those that had such short careers that seem overly obscure. (Not so much opposed, as just less likely to vote for).

Also, the 1887 John 'Monte' Ward SS card looks like a major upgrade. Better offensively, a 1 on defense, and AAA stealing. (I know we don't use those ratings, but they are a good indicator).

Another upgrade would be 1891 Herman Long. Gets a 1 on defense at SS, with better offense and a AA base stealer.

Jack related to Preacher?

Thanks Bill.

Can we see the strat stats on those and add them to the list of potentials?

Thanks Bill.

I'll take a look when i get a chance.

Cool- that Sam Wise card looks to have the most potential use -- depending on the error rating

The poll closed Wednesday afternoon and the results were posted Wednesday night. No word expected about the ATG card adds until sometime after the 2023 season goes live on 365.

Before they make the cards, first they have to find some trees with good wood pulp for the card stock. I'm guessing by early 2026 they should be ready to be given salaries. These things take time, it's not like they have high speed computers.The cards are all hand crafted with top quality construction paper and the latest in abacus technology.
