What's the saying about Hack Wilson
"He was built like a Beer Barrell and not unfamiliar with it's contents"

Does anybody have a scan of Eddie Collins' W575-2 card?

That card is the epitome of unathletic, the guy hardly even has shoulders.

Who woulda thunk this dopey lookin fella was one of the greatest 2B's of all time?
