Snuffy Stirnweiss, 1945.

Led the WW2 depleted league in:

AB / R / H / 3B / SB / AVG / SLG / OPS

Finished third in MVP voting behind Hal Newhouser and (who knows why) Eddie Mayo.

Ben Zobrist 2009. Love the versatility, we need more Rays players and Zs for alphabet theme leagues.

Bryce Harper 2015

Once again:
Wayne Terwilliger '59

WWII Marine with the assault forces at Saipan, Tinian and Iwo Jima. 13 years a player. 47 years a coach or manager. Participated in over 7100 baseball games until the age of 85. If "Twig" doesn't deserve a special place in Cooperstown, who does?

I don't think a nom for Harper in 2015 should be a part of any discussion and voting for ATG 8 player additions when the new 2015 cards aren't even on the street yet.

Agree. This is a wasted nomination since the '15 cards won't even be out yet when these additions are implemented

Johnny Dickshot 1945

Nothing in the nomination rules said anything about the year of the player and he'd be the first Nationals player in the group!! Plus it was a historic year that should be tested vs the greats of all time in my opinion. Hopefully Strat will be willing! If not I will remove the nomination.
