1960 - 1999 player nomination thread

Tony Armas 1984
Dwight Evans 1981
Tom Paciorek 1981

Ok thanks for all the input!! We have a very heavy list and I'd rather solicit the collective strength of this group to widdle it down.

Since we have over 60 nominees (after a little honing down by a few of you on your own posts, tks) I first eliminated any nominees that played in less than 10 seasons. We will not forget them forever, just for this vote.

So that leaves us with 64 players for 15 nominations for the 4, yes only 4 spots for this grouping.

So here are the rules of engagement...
If you've contributed to this list, you get a voice. If you're listed below please choose three players from the attached list. The list will still be a little big but during this process I'm hopeful the top 15 or so will be apparent. If not then I'll put on my big boy pants and make a few cuts before we send them to vote.

Mariano Duncan
Bill Spiers
Rick Wilkins

Everybody gets a vote, no problem with that. But, with the interest in Duncan and Spiers, where are they gonna play?

No real opinion here re Spiers, but as long as Duncan is a 3 at 2b and not a 4, I think the 8L 1990 card platoons nicely at 410/.437/.606/1.044 vs lefties.

Rosie, Andre Dawson should have 2 votes, as both Andy and I voted for him. Note that I didn't check to see if Andy got credit for his other 2 votes. - Bernie
