So here's a thing to keep us busy until spring training. We're going to create the 'Alphabet Allstars'.
What we will do each day is vote on the a player with a last name beginning with each letter from A-Z for our roster. But at the same time, we have a roster to build and so we need to fill all the positions (13 batters, 13 pitchers). So if we fill a spot, no further players will be able to be voted for that role no matter how good they are. So for example if we vote for Johnny Bench and Carlton Fisk, Pudge Rodriguez won't be available to vote for when we get to 'R'.
No idea if this is interesting or not... but it will only take 10 seconds of your time each day to vote and we could end up with a fun roster at the end.
