Best Fantasy Baseball All Star Teams Ever

http://blog.fbhof.com/2008/08/08/whatifsports-and-fbhof-all-star-simulation.aspx

The Fantasy Baseball Hall of Fame (FBHOF.com) and wwWhatIfSports.com have partnered on a project to determine the best All-Star teams of the Fantasy Era. The FBHOF recently developed a fantasy player rating system to enshrine the greats of Fantasy Baseball history. These ratings were used as the basis for determining the best players of each year from 1980 through 2007. These players are our All-Stars. Rosters were turned over to WhatIfSports who simulated hundreds of games to determine which of these squads was best ?on the field?.

The Great Non-Closing Relievers

We know about Mariano Rivera, Octavio Dotel, and Rob Dibble, but two others had great fantasy seasons as middle relievers too.

Sabo Awards - Juan Samuel, Steve Sax, and Tom Henke

Samuel was a free swinging nut. Sax put fear in the hears of.... his teammates. Henke was a man who just had to prove his greatness.

The ?Sabo Awards? are simply for those players who invoke fond memories. They are likely not to be the best players of their era, or even a given year, but should still bring a smile to your face.
