Post strike Tony Gwynn? I politely disagree and Gwynn is one of my favorite players of all time.

Sosa had a couple of insane years, it was a fine choice.

If we are going to compare apples to oranges-
Sosa had 74 less hits and only 41 more RBIs despite 47 more HRs, and 125 more strikeouts. All power, nothing else.
Different hitters baby.

Re: Post-Strike Baseball Tournament: Round Four & Five - Kai
You're absolutely right. But Gwynn's WAR in 97 was 4.3, and was 4.2 in 94.
Sosa's 2001 WAR was 10.3

Re: Post-Strike Baseball Tournament: Round Five - BRL
So if this tournament ends up being alright and not a shitshow, I propose that whenever do another one, before we do other eras we do a Favorite Franchise Bloodbath tournament. Everyone assembles a dream team from their favorite team's history. No draft. We just have to decide if people who share favorite teams have to co-manage one team, or each put forth their own spin on the franchise.
We have to wait till they update the site with 2014 though, so I can have Jose Abreu and this year's Chris Sale.
With the very high odds of a chud-Kaius and chud-Argo match-up taking place deep into that tourney, it could be amazing.

Re: Post-Strike Baseball Tournament: Round Five - BRL
I guess we'll just have to let you both submit a Red Sox team.
