Who is Connor Smith and what did you do to our friend Rick?

Who is Connor Smith and what did you do to our friend Rick?

Thanks for the concern. Connor is my son who is playing an online league using the 2012 players. I made my last selection using his computer, which was logged in under his name.

Looking at the 2012 players, it is amazing how much higher the injury ratings are. Today's players are not as tough as the guys we are using.

Rick

When players were chosen to use for ATG I'm sure the high injury years for most players were not selected which makes it seem like everyone was healthy every game.

Trivia question - Ken Keltner is a third baseman whose card is in this set. What claim to fame (if you want to call it that) does he have with regards to a famous baseball record?

He helped put an end to Dimaggio's hitting streak?

or maybe it was his part of a publicity stunt by the Come to Cleveland Committee, Indians' catchers Frankie Pytlak and Hank Helf successfully caught baseballs dropped by Keltner from Cleveland's 708-foot-tall Terminal Tower.
