First let me say: What a Great Project this is!
I am a long time Dodger fan - since I watched a game on tv (1953 - I was 5; been a baseball & Dodger fan since) Koufax pitched that day
I agree with your assessment of Adrian Beltre but not on Mike Pizza - if you prorate Mike's stats with the Dodgers and give him an 8th year: it's the Dodgers where he belongs (they NEVER should have traded him)
Number Two - my opinion: Clayton Kershaw should be just under Sandy Koufax
Finally: Sean Green - I'd have to look but I thought he had at least 3 solid years with the Dodgers - I know he had 1 great year
Not complaining here, you did a great job with this franchise and the whole setup, I will be checking in often on your results

We got Piazza, Mets Fans delight! Besides, we don't have that many great years to look back on , though I admit, Piazza was "the man" with those great Dodger years and a .331BA FOR A CATCHER, amazing...too bad, he couldn't throw!

Sabathia) was one of the most difficult players to allocate. He was a 6-time All-Star for both the Dodgers and Mets and although he compiled more WAR for LA than NY (32 to 24.6) his extra season in New York gives him more runs, RBI, and homers as a Met. It's close, but we put Piazza in the Big Apple.

Thor, I didn't respond to one of your questions in my initial response. You're absolutely right, Shawn Green had some good years as Dodger (2001 & 2002 especially) but in this simulation he plays for Toronto - he started there and spent seven seasons as a Blue Jay compared to five as a Dodger.
