- Layne is a Hall of Famer, though he did most of his damage with the Lions.
- Page is a Hall of Famer. He was a Minnesota Supreme Court Justice.

My Teams vs Your Teams
My Teams Your Teams
- Starting eight plus a DH
- Starting pitchers
- Bullpen
- Bench
My teams are the Phillies, Oakland A's, and Padres: the three teams I've rooted for during my life.
It's the last 50 years, because the Padres and Oakland A's are somewhat new compared to teams like the Yankees and Cardinals. I'm already giving you guys way more teams to draw from, so I need something to even the playing field. Ha.
I avoided juicers. Go ahead and file your complaints about other exclusions though. Jeff Kent? Curt Schilling? Steve Garvey?
