[JDRedemann]

I started a sim in 1903, taking the Brooklyn Dodgers (then Robins), and I have had a few of the nastiest lineups ever. We dominated from 1918-26 as the NL's World Series representative through that span, then again from 1928-41, with only the New York Giants interrupting that streak in 1937. So much for a "historical" sim, huh? And though I had such dominant eras, I never could put together more than a three championship streak either, so I feel you there.

I've had some of the best players of the game so far, but I think my favorite lineup and rotation is what I would call the Dodgers' Golden Age, the start of the dynasty years:

The 1918 Brooklyn Dodgers:

CF "Shoeless" Joe Jackson
RF Ty Cobb
3B Rogers Hornsby
LF Babe Ruth
1B Eddie Collins, Sr.
C Wally Schang
SS Buck Weaver
2B Bill Wambsganss
P ---


and, the rotation that sealed the Series:
SP Walter "Big Train" Johnson
SP "Smokey" Joe Wood
SP "Bullet" Joe Bush
SP Fred Anderson


Johnson later went on to lead the majors with 467 wins. Cobb led the league with over 4000 hits, which only "Rajah" Hornsby topped eventually. And, of course, "El Bambino" holds the single season HR record of 54 and the career mark of 684.
