1924 Specs Toporcer STL L 5R 3b-4e12, 2b-4e65, SS-4e52 313/362/409 1920's Cardinals 3b, good platoon option
1948 Bobby Brown NYY L 3R 3b-4e27, SS-4e52, 2b-4e41 300/383/405 Needs a better card
1970 Tommy Harper MIL R 1R 3b-4e31, 2b4e34, LF-2(+1)8, RF-3 296/377/522 Would be his BEST card by a lot
1940 Buddy Lewis WASH L E 3b-4e32, OF-4(-2)12 317/393/443 Needs better card
1986 Gary Gaetti MIN R 4L 3b-2e22, SS-4e48, 2b-4e41 287/347/518 Needs better card
1939 Cookie Lavagetto BKN R E 3b-2e24 300/387/416 Needs better card
1931 Joe Stripp CIN R 1L 3b-3e25, 1b-4e17 324/359/415 A New Addition
1923 Pie Traynor PIT R E 3b-1e26, SS-3e57 338/377/489 Would be his best card

Buddy Lewis was an All-Star for the mid 30's/early 40's Senators. They need some help and he needs a more representative card.

Toporcer and Stripp would be new players to Strat

Love 1976 Nettles - thank you for posting his splits. Assuming he's a 1 I think that might make him playable at all caps.

Frank Home Run Baker's best year is 1912
.347/.404/.541/.945 This is an OPS+ of 174.
I don't know what his fielding rating is, but of AL thirdbasemen that year who played more than 1000 innings at third, he has the best RF/G and Fielding Percentage.
