I also like Wil Clark over Orlando Cepeda as reserve IF. Three old time great SP's in Amos Rusie, Mickey Welch and Tim Keefe.

Mathewson pitched three shutouts in the 1905 World Series (a series that went five games - Christy pitched three games in six days). The won back to back World Series in 1921-22 over the Yankees (a huge deal... the NY Giants were the kings of NY) but you could argue that this era of Giants baseball has been the most fruitful and meaningful (considering the franchise now resides in San Francisco).@OCP22https://www.blogger.com/profile/06983828112048757251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339646220153814400.post-5923026639205334822013-02-28T17:03:18.216-05:002013-02-28T17:03:18.216-05:00Strong pitching and strong lineup.
