A Custom Teams idea..

If you are one of those lucky enough to have access to all players, here’s a fun APBA game/series I’d like to see sometime. My APBA ‘All-Teenage’ team versus my APBA ‘All 40-Plus’ team…

Teen Squad:
C - Ivan Rodriguez (1991 Rangers) .264, 3 HR, 27 RBI
1B - Phil Cavarretta (1935 Cubs) .275, 8 HR, 82 RBI
2B - Bill Mazeroski (1956 Pirates) .243, 3 HR, 14 RBI

3B - Buddy Lewis (1936 Senators) .291, 6 HR, 67 RBI
OF - Juan Soto (2018 Nationals) .292, 22 HR, 70 RBI

1B - Darrell Evans (1987 Tigers) .257, 34 HR, 99 RBI
2B - Nap Lajoie (1915 Athletics) .280, 1 HR, 61 RBI
SS - Honus Wagner (1915 Pirates) .274, 6 HR, 78 RBI
3B - Craig Nettles (1985 Padres) .261, 15 HR, 61 RBI

OF - Barry Bonds (2007 Giants) .276, 28 HR, 66 RBI
DH - David Ortiz (2016 Red Sox) .315, 38 HR, 127 RBI
SP - Cy Young (1908 Red Sox) 21-11, 1.26 ERA, 150 K’s

Naturally, the makeup of these teams are completely open for debate. But that’s what makes APBA great. If you ever play these two head-to-head, let me know how it turns out…
