    Michael - Thanks for commenting. Here's the deal. Given that height is rather important for a pitcher, there truly wasn't any other solid options than Flash. He had some great years as a starter, setup man, and closer.

    man, that is some trivia knowledge to have at your local B-Dubs, lol. I know you said you were open to suggestions, but I don't have any except their has to be a better reliever to put there than Tom Gordon. Overall though definitely a unique twist I enjoyed. Cheers~

    Good team Ryan! The pitching staff leaves a little to be desired, but I guess pitching is the one position height is an advantage.
