The Reds never could decide what to do with Williamson. It was kind of nerving watching them move him back and forth, then try the same thing with Danny Graves.
Most of these players have/had at least respectable careers. Again, a better overall crop then what was in the AL that decade.

Hollandsworth or Williamson.

I'll say Hollandsworth. He's the worst out of that bunch.

I'd have to say Kerry Wood. As good as his stuff was, he couldn't stay off the DL to save his life. One good year as a closer doesn't change that. He may very well have another freak injury next season that has him collecting money from the Indians for the next few years.

Scott Williamson by far didn't really have any great seasons (at least not that I recall).

What were your reasons for picking Hideo Nomo?

This is a tremendous class, actually - everyone here had some value at least for a couple of years... you cannot say that about the 1990-1999 class for the American League.
I went with Scott Williamson, though I probably should've went with Todd Hollandsworth.

I checked their history games and picked Nomo.

So you think Williamson's history is stronger than Nomo's? Throwing a no-hitter at Coors trumps anything Williamson ever did.

"I checked their history games and picked Nomo."
But why didn't you bother comparing him to Williamson or Hollandsworth before voting?

Dang right it's your fault. If you want most people to take you seriously, you need to do better research. You're clearly capable of doing that.
