21.4 Nominations are Open!

With all due respect to my good friend Eric, That Bell card has 30 GBA each way. I sure can't see me using such a double play machine

Is it too late to change my nomination? If it's not too late, give me the 2005 Morgan Ensberg 3b Astros instead.

1. 1972 Sparky Lyle NYY LHRP AL-leading 35 saves 1.92 era 1.05 whip MVP-3 CYA-7. Only 3 HRs allowed in 107.2 innings. Big improvement over 2 current cards. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/737283/1670/1/70
2. 2017 Nelson Cruz. DH/RF. 39 HRs. 119 RBI (led league). .924 OPS. 7-time all star who has one card in the deck that is a platoon card with a high injury chance. This one is more indicative of his peak performance. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/268/2017/1/2017
3. 1988 Wade Boggs, 3B - this would be his BEST CARD - a few less homeruns, but higher OBP, better defense (3b-2e12), and plays all 162 games.

6. 2006 Kenji Johjima C SEA. batted .298 with 18 homeruns against RHP. Seattle desperately needs a Catcher that can hit righties. Johjima would platoon well with Wilson to give Seattle competence at the position.

10. 2003 Chad Bradford OAK. He wasn’t sidearm, he was underhanded. Current card is balanced but he was a ROOGY and this card is 9R. Hold -3. Couldn't get lefthanders out, so should be another needed cheap ROOGY https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/90060/1700/1/120

Question...

The Padres need help @ SS.

I wanted to nominate the 2020 Fernando Tatis .

How are we gonna handle that in ATG?

Personally, I would consider any of the 60 game season cards "goon cards", and I'm against it.
As great a player as Tatis is, his best years still lie well ahead of him.

How about the 1977 or 1979 Garry Templeton card? Although it's a Cardinal card, he played most of his career with the Padres and should not be as injury prone as his other cards since his plate appearances are well over 650.

Only 3 spots left.

1935 George Selkirk the Year he Replaced RUTH ! 541 PA 491 AB 312 BA 375 OBP

1. 1972 Sparky Lyle NYY LHRP AL-leading 35 saves 1.92 era 1.05 whip MVP-3 CYA-7. Only 3 HRs allowed in 107.2 innings. Big improvement over 2 current cards. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/737283/1670/1/70
2. 2017 Nelson Cruz. DH/RF. 39 HRs. 119 RBI (led league). .924 OPS. 7-time all star who has one card in the deck that is a platoon card with a high injury chance. This one is more indicative of his peak performance. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/268/2017/1/2017
3. 1988 Wade Boggs, 3B - this would be his BEST CARD - a few less homeruns, but higher OBP, better defense (3b-2e12), and plays all 162 games.
4. 2000 Chan Ho Park LAD RHP 18-10, 3.27. Low hits allowed (226 IP, 173 Hits) Righty leaning, -5 hold. No card. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/3624/1700/1/120
5. 1992 Darryl Hamilton MIL RF/CF/LF - LHB - .298/.356/.400 114 OPS+, 41 steals, 0 errors, mainstay in Brewer outfield, no card https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/3056/1690/1/90
6. 2006 Kenji Johjima C SEA. batted .298 with 18 homeruns against RHP. Seattle desperately needs a Catcher that can hit righties. Johjima would platoon well with Wilson to give Seattle competence at the position.
7. 1907 Lew Richie, PHI, Throws-R, E BAL, END-S7/R5 1.77/1.077 ERA
8.2009 Troy Tulowitzki, COL, Bats-R, BAL-2R, SS-1e10, 3 Game INJ Risk https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/1161/2009/1/2009
9. 1947 Walker Cooper, c 3(0)e7, Giants, Bats R .305 35 122 .339 .586 .926 Career highs in H, R, TR, HR, RBI, TB, SLG, OPS. Near career highs in BA & OPS+. .926 OPS compares well with Johnny Bench's 2 MVP years. 18 year career, 8 time All-Star.
10. 2003 Chad Bradford OAK. He wasn’t sidearm, he was underhanded. Current card is balanced but he was a ROOGY and this card is 9R. Hold -3. Couldn't get lefthanders out, so should be another needed cheap ROOGY https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/90060/1700/1/120
11. 1978 Rusty Staub, DET, DH 162 Games, 24 HR, 121 RBi, .273 BA, 5th place in AL MVP vote https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/741501/1670/1/70
12. 1979 Mike Ivie SF Bats-R BAL-6L 1b-2e8, 3b-4e37, 2b-4e41, LF-4(+2)e16 INJ Risk-15 No Card. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/735812/1670/1/70
13.1924 Joe Hauser PHA 1B BL .288 .358 .516 27HR. MVP 7. Minor league home run star. Broke his leg with the A's, missed time and returned to the minors
14. 1973 Doug Rader 3B HOU Bats R, 11.1 HR chances against LHP (plus 8 BP#), 1-27 rating on D. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/739841/1670/1/70
15. 1971 Earl Williams C ATL 33HR, 87 RBI .815 OPS. NL Rookie-Of-The-Year. Bats R, 5R, Excellent reverse platoon option. No card in ATG. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/742952/1670/1/70
16. 2019 Jacob deGrom new york mets Sp cy young award winner 11-8 2.43era .97whip https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/92065/2019/1/2019
17. 1934 Wes Ferrell SP BOS - Fascinating, criminally overlooked liveball pitcher. Legit HOF case after adjusting for high-offense era and considering he was one of the best-hitting pitchers ever (.797 career OPS). Baseball Reference likes other seasons better but this appears to be his best card.
18. 1942 Walt Judnich, SLB, BAL-1R, CF/LF/RF-2(-1)e4, 313/413/500; Hit for Power, Average, and OBP in his first 3 MLB seasons and was also an AllStar twice in that period before WW2 took his most productive years. Plays all 3 OF spots, Power/OBP Combination, He would be very helpful for the Browns PreWar teams.
19. 2008 Mariano Rivera Simply the best season of the consensus greatest reliever of all time. .67 whip https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/90492/2008/1/2008

23. 2002 Randy Winn TAMPA CF 2(0)e3 .298/.360/.461 NO CARD

24. 2017 Cory Seager LA Dodgers SS 2e14/ .295/.375/.479, for Franchise league enthusiasts like me, we are desperate for a decent LA Dodgers SS.. Bill Russell does not cut it, and we can't seem to get Cesar Izturis in the set..https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/92663/2017/1/2017
25. 1917 Ferdie Schupp NYG Throws-L BAL-E END-S8*/R5 21-7 1.95 ERA 1.00 WHIP

28. 1935 Joe Vosmik CLE Bats-R BAL-E LF/CF/RF-3(0)e5 INJ Risk-3 .348/.408/.537 1935 was a great year for Vosmik, leading League in Hits, Doubles, and Triples. 3rd in MVP Vote.
29. 1981 Steve McCatty OAK SP No card. Led League in ERA and Wins, 2nd in Cy Young vote, this would be a good add for those 1981 A’s

33. 2000 Darrin Fletcher C Toronto Blue Jays 19 doubles, 20 HR’s .320/.355/.514 The Jays franchise needs a better option for a catcher than Whitt, Borders and Martinez. Fletcher would be an improvement for the Jays franchise. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/3682/1700/1/120

39. 1950 Billy Goodman - Batted .354
40. 1968 Bobby Bolin, Giants, RHSP 10-5 1.99 0.985. Career bests in in ERA, WHIP, HR9, H9 and near career best in BB9. Bolin pitched in relative anonymity his entire career, and in typical fashion, had his best year in 1968 when Bob Gibson & Juan Marichal stole all the NL pitching headlines. Was 2nd in NL in ERA & H9, & 4th in WHIP.
