I would check out the Yankees' '92 roster and do a Google image search on some of the names. If you can take a guess of who it is and go on your suspicion, that might get you your answer quicker. If there's a name you don't recognize, it could very well be that guy.

Do you have any supporting info? Like a career field?\nThere's only one hit in a yahoo search, and that's a 2003 baseball roster.\nSorry.

I absolutely understand where you are going with this question and I agree in part with what you are saying.  Koufax had a 12 year career.  The first 6 years were under .500 with an era well over 4 runs a game.  By todays standards that's actually okay.  Back in the 50's and 60's you were basically on your way out!!  Somewhere during the off season between 1960 and 1961 something happened.  What that was, who can tell.  It's like a light went off in his head and he suddenly learned how to pitch.  There is no denying the second half of his career but as you said many other pitchers have won more games.  I can give you a list of pitchers with close to 300 wins that are not in the HOF.  Baseball has many issues starting with Bonds right on down to a terrible playoff system.  The powers to be really need to sit down and take a long hard look at their position on matters that really count.  As for Koufax, we all know about his medical problems when he left the game.  That may have helped him more than anything else.  He was a very good pitcher who just happened to have 4 HOF seasons and then walked away from the game.  I'd say based on what we've seen over the past 20 years, yes, why not.  After all lesser players are in the HOF

I love those old Twins, like Tony O (would've been a sure HOF if not for his knees?)...I loved the Kirby/"Hrbe" teams as well...Too bad, you couldn't get Rod Carew there, but I guess you had to choose btwn him and Puckett, given the one HOF'er rule...\n\nSince I'm a lifetime Phillies fan, here goes (since I've been following anyway):\n\nC- Bob Boone\n1B - Dick Allen  (almost snuck in Pete Rose here)\n2B - Chase Utley (apologies to Manny Trillo and Juan Samuel)\nSS - Larry Bowa\n3B - Michael Jack Schmidt (HOF)\nLF - Lonnie Smith (a personal fave who started here, and was actually the leadoff hitter on 3, and almost 4 World Series winners)\nCF - Gary Maddox\nRF - Bake McBride\n\nLINEUP:  Smith - Utley - Schmidt - Allen - McBride - Maddox - Boone - Bowa - Carlton (no DH)\n\nReserves:  Cookie Rojas (IF), Greg Gross/Del Unser (OF) and one more?  Tomas Perez\n\nRotation\nLHP Steve Carlton (HOF)\nRHP Curt Schilling  \nRHP Jim Bunning  \nLHP Randy Wolf (a little weak)\nRHP Rick Wise (not great either, but...he once threw a no-hitter and hit 2 HRs in same game, and we traded him for "Lefty"\n\n\n\nBullPen\nTug McGraw (the late, great)\nMitch Williams (keep things exciting)\nGene Garber (liked the swivel delivery)

He retired in 2005 after playing his entire career with the Reds.  He currently has a job working with the Washington Nationals as the Special Assistant to the General Manager.

There is talk of them signing one of the Alex Gonzalez's, which one I am not sure.  Probably the one who was with the Marlins the past few years.

The closest I could find is his music from 2004, when he was with the Detroit Tigers (ESPN Page 3).\n\nSorry.

I did when I was younger and I played everything except pitcher and 1st base. I mostly played 3rd, short stop and caught. I miss it so much!!

I have tried Google Images for you and have not come up with anything. However, since he's from Kansas City, MO, you might try contacting newspapers from that city that were in existence in those years. They may have an old photo in their archives. Also, you might try seeing if you can contact any Miami newspapers from that time that covered the fight with Kid Gavilan in Havana. They may have a photo of the fight in their records. Good luck!

The answer is 98-year-old Billy Werber, who had short stints with the Yankees in 1930 and 1933.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_living_Major_League_Baseball_players\n\nhttp://www.baseball-reference.com/w/werbebi01.shtml\n\nHe's one year younger than Rollie Stiles and Ray Berres, the two oldest living former major-leaguers.

The current one is Jim Colborn, and before him Spin Williams did it from '01-'05.  I'm not sure who preceded Williams, but Ray Miller had the job from '87-96.  Sorry I don't have more names.

There is a rumor that he was married to a German women when he was in his 20s but Daddy would have nothing of it, especially considering our relationship with the Germans at the time. So, the marriage was kinda deleted off the records so to say.\n\nI don't necessarily believe that story, but I have heard of it before in case that's what you're trying to think of.

I found this guy (Pete Spratt), who won the Dallas Golden Gloves championship in 1995, but the exact division isn't specified. Why are you interested? Is it really you?
