1871-2030

[CamHartman]

Hello there! Recently did something similar to another thread on here and simulated from 1971-2030, to see how things pan out differently. Name any players and I will let you know how they did!

Josh Beckett pitched a fairly average 15 year career with the Phillies, Mariners, Blue Jays, Marlins, and Mets, compiling a 184-167 record with a 4.20 ERA and 2672 strikeouts in 2971 innings. He was a three time all star and won a World Series title with the Phillies in 2008.

Jeff Conine had a very injury plagued seven year career, bouncing around the systems with Cleveland, Milwaukee, Baltimore, and Atlanta. He hit .270 with 38 home runs. He had no major league accolades, though he was a six time all star in the minor leagues.

Miguel Cabrera spent a great 18 year career with the Twins and Mariners, logging a .291 batting average and 459 home runs. He was a seven time all star and one time MVP. He was elected to the hall of fame in 2026.

Dontrelle Willis had a solid career, spanning 14 years with the Pirates, Orioles, Nationals, Rangers, Braves, and Red Sox. He logged a 3.74 era and a record of 183-140. He was a one time Cy Young award winner and two time MVP. He won two world series titles, one with the Pirates and one with the Orioles in 2003 and 2013.

Giancarlo Stanton is, miraculously, still active in 2030. He has logged 745 home runs and has a .265 average. He is a six time all star and five time gold glove award winner, and is a shoe-in for the hall of fame whenever he decides to retire. He has spent seven years with Detroit and thirteen with Toronto.

Stanton is only a six-time all-star? He's already made two All-Star games and it's 2014. Seems like he'd make a lot more than that by 2030.

I agree. It's odd. But I dont stop every season to pick the AS rosters, so they just default. For whatever reason, he didnt make many.

How about Hank Greenberg, Sandy Koufax, Mark Fidrych, Dave Winfield, and Harold Baines?
