I can't believe nobody's posted "The Captain" yet (Captain Obvious?

I do not like the #2. SO, I will skip to #1. Also, no good players have ever worn #2 except Jimmie Foxx and Charlie Gehringer. (Yes, I am fully aware Derek Jeter wore #2 and I will give him no RE2SPECT, he does not deserve.

#1 is stacked.

@kungfupandacam: U mad bro? Many, many, many players have worn the number 2 over the years. 581 in fact. Nobody's saying you have to like or respect all of them. That would be ridiculous. But surely you could've found some to post rather than throwing a hissy fit because one player you don't like got posted.

I'm a Blue Jay fan. I didn't care much for Jeter when he was playing either because he probably killed us (don't know that for a fact - haven't looked it up - don't care to). Regardless of what I think about him, I realize he belongs here because he's one of the 18,500 or so that have suited up over the years (not all of them wore numbers either - that only goes back about 80 or 90 some odd years or so) in this great game that we all love (not all of us - some of us are here because we love great sports management sims - but most people here love baseball) so much. That's what this thread's about. It's a celebration (as Hammercraft said a while back in here) of baseball and a countdown while we're waiting for this great baseball sim to come out. /rant over

I know he's already been posted but Geez Louise, I gotta give "Sweet" Lou Whitaker some love. Hey BBWAA - ding dong - you blew it!...

actionjackson · 03-16-2016, 09:35 PM

He served as the first Blue Jays hitting coach, but before that he was a pretty damn good second baseman in his own right...Bobby Doerr...

No good players that wore #2 besides Jimmie Fox and Charlie Gehringer?
Lets see...
Besides Derek Jeter...because he doesnt like him.
Roberto Alomar HOF!
Nellie Fox HOF!
Red Schoendienst HOF!
Troy Tulowitzki..who WILL be HOF!
And lots of non-HOFamers that were still good players.
What is he talking about?

Can't compare him to the Wizard of Oz, but he was our wizard growing up...Tony Fernandez...
