He's currently best known to all of us as the guy we get instead of the 0.90 Duffy in AD. But Amos was a pretty good player in his own right. He had a peak OPS of 151 in 1916, finishing 4th in the AL behind Speaker, Cobb, and Shoeless Joe. He also had good seasons in 1913 and 1916. Perhaps Strat should give us one of those cards so that EVERYBODY could put the 0.90 Duffy on their card for every draft just to see who wins the small-ball CF lottery.
A rough approximation of his (Chevy) card would be:
34 hits, of which there would be 6.6 doubles, 1.8 triples, .45 HR, and one ballpark HR, with 13 BB and 1 HBP. He would be an A bunter, probably a B H&R, and a Godawful base stealer since he was 21 of 44. That probably translates to something like A* (15-7) 2-6,12/7. He'd probably be something like a 2e6 in CF with a rocket arm, maybe -3 or so. That would likely make him worth 6 million or maybe a little more, not a bad player.
