Jim Hearn, pitcher, NL Earned-Run Average leader in 1950, 2.49.

[Giantfanforever]

Mike Ivie....

Has this thread died? I had an idea maybe after going through the alphabet a designated number of times (10 times? 5 times?), perhaps we could have all Giants fans vote for their favorite player of each letter of the alphabet. To keep it legit, we should use last names only.

We could even select TWO lists, one for the NEW YORK Giants of 1883-1957 and one for the SAN FRANCISCO Giants of 1958-2006.

What do you guys think?

Anybody find an "X" yet?

[soberdennis]

Larry Jansen-ace in 51.

Your idea might be fun But we would be switching horses in midstream if we went to last names only right now. Maybe starting next round.

ggf: Has this thread died?
while "between innings" is a fantastic idea, i see no reason for this thread to have been moved.

have all Giants fans vote for their favorite player of each letter of the alphabet. To keep it legit, we should use last names only .... We could even select TWO lists...
certainly no harm in trying, ggf
