Welcome to the 19.3 Nomination thread.
All MLB cards from 1871-2017 are eligible per Strat
(2018 cards will be eligible for 19.4)
Our 19.3 parameters are as follows.
1. One nomination per member only
2. When we hit 45 unique nominations we will begin voting (after Andy posts card analysis)
3. We will have one poll of 50 cards; the top 24* will be added
4. Any ties for the 24th spot will automatically be added in 19.4
5. Next "x" highest vote getters will get another shot in 19.4
6. Note: 200 AB/80 IP/40 IP minimums now in place
Please submit nominations in a 'Year Player Team Position Comments' format.
*1917 Ty Cobb DET OF 28 (tied for 25th in 19.2 poll)
The following 5 cards will be included in the 50-card 19.3 poll.
1991 Otis Nixon ATL OF 26
1920 Buck Weaver CWS 3b/ss 25
1993 Mike Stanley NYY C 24
1968 Stan Bahnsen NYY SP 24
2014 Michael Brantley CLE OF 23
Thanks,
Bill
1. 1999 Fred McGriff TB 1b 4R 339/436/593 vs righties, career high .405 obp, .310 ba, 30 2b, 32 hr, a different type of McGriff card, nice addition to the Rays undermanned group of hitters, Tampa native and original D-Ray, let's bring the Crime Dog home!
2. 1968 Andy Messersmith CAL S/R - We can't seem to get enough votes for the 69 card, so how about his BEST card? 0.97 WHIP, 2.37 ERA, 81 IP 44 hits 74 K's (great 5 man rotation option!)
3. 1922 Ray Grimes CHC 1B .354/.442/.572 45 doubles, 12 triples 159 OPS+, RHH probably a 2 or 3R, career cut short by back problems, gives the CHC Pre another choice besides Cavarretta
4. 2009 Adrian Gonzalez SD 1B. - Gold Glove, 40 homeruns in Petco and no cards in the ATG. (Padres only good 1b in the set is McGriff)
5. 1969 Ollie Brown, SD, 5L Balance, RF-2(-4)e8 no card in ATG
6.1930 George Watkins, STL, Bats-L, 5R Balance, LF/RF-3(-1)e15, CF-4(-1)e15
Talk about an upgrade! Two cards now, at 0.55 and 0.97. In 1930 he came on like Chicxulub - 373/415/621. This is the highest batting average for a rookie in NL baseball history (baseball almanac)
7. 1972 Gary Nolan, Reds, RHSP 15-5 1.99 1.006 Career bests in ERA, WHIP, W-L%. Led NL in W-L%, 2nd in ERA (trailing only Steve Carlton, 1.97 to 1.99), & BB9, 3rd in WHIP (behind Carlton & Don Sutton) and 8th in H9. Nolan was plagued by arm trouble throughout his injury shortened career, but still was lifetime 110-70 .611 with a career 3.08 ERA. A good reverse RHSP at 3L. Post War and Expansion Reds could use another SP.

9. 2001 Bob Wickman Cle. Rel. P 67.2 IP, 66 K, 2.39 ERA, 32 of 35 Saves, 1.11 WHIP. No Card
