Tallest/heaviest player in your league?

Habsfan18 · 10-09-2015, 10:43 PM

Michael Conlon of the Yankees is 6'7, 295lbs. That's the same height and 10lbs heavier than CC Sabathia!

He also happens to be a 4x MVP (including the past 2 seasons), 6x All-Star, and 5x Silver Slugger.

Not surprisingly, his speed rating is 1.

edit: Start of the 2025 season, he's now 300lbs!

It's only 1873 now in my league,so the tallest isn't very tall. It's a several-way tie at 6'2". One of them, Mike Jackson, is my Brooklyn Robins' starter, and has won the Best Pitcher award both seasons of the league's history. Tall = good, I guess!

Weight: Only 230, two guys, 1B Thomas Armstrong of the Cleveland and C Roger Edwards of the Robins, tied. Neither has distinguished themselves much, as both are bench players.

tallst is a Wookie named Piera something at 7'9. Heaviest is a Gamorrean named Biak at 500 lbs but he is stuck in Single A after hitting 45 Hr in the Tatooine League 2 years ago with 150 K (90 game season) Real players/ Ai generated i would have to get back to you on.

If you're using real players from recent seasons, P Loek Van Mil (around 7'1") out of the Detroit system is probably going to be your tallest.

As for computer-generated players, the biggest I have are a handful of guys in the 6'7", 250 range.

tallest computer generated I've seen is a 7' in one of my online leagues. Heaviest has been 295 pounds.

I checked my retired players in my fictional league, and the heaviest player ever was 340 pounds, but only 6'2". As you might expect, he was a first baseman.

There have been a couple of guys in my league who were 7'0".

I drafted a kid out of college who was 6'11, 341lbs. He could both pitch and play first at a high level. I left him as a pitcher and he made it to Double-A but had a couple arm injuries, so I switched him to 1B and he made it to the majors three years later, I think he hit .220 with 5 HR before he left in free agency and ended up signing in Mexico for a couple seasons and then played three in an Independent League before retiring,
