The way I'm going to do this is that I'm going to ask a new question every day, then people will try to answer the questions. Let me warn you...they get hard.

We're going to compete for points, and whoever gets the most points at the end of around 40 questions wins bragging rights that they know stuff about other sports, including baseball.

Walk-ins welcome.

Anyone want to join?

I know almost everything about baseball, and nothing about anything else.

Do you know who Babe Adams is?

Babe Adams, SP, Pirates, played in 1900's-1910's. Teammate of Honus Wagner.

I just so happen to support Manchester United. 42 goals, which so happens to be Rivera's number.

Thats a tough one. All-around probably Sizemore
He hit 33 homeruns, can steal alot of bases and is a great defensive outfielder
But ya I'm not that amazing at this kind of stuff but I know some of this stuff

O ya and I could say Hamilton but he made alot of errors for an outfielder last year but he is close to becoming the best outfielder in the majors

Edit: actually, he had 6 errors which wasn't that bad but hes still not as good defensively as Sizemore

Hamilton, Sizemore, and Holliday are the 3 best outfielders. The only change would be if the change from Coors to McAffee affects Holliday drastically.

Jacobye Mauer isn't the best catcher I would take Martin, Soto, and McCann first.

This whole thing depends on whether or not we're talking about 1) just offense or 2) just this season
