1942 Red Sox: The Teammates Quest for a Ring

[ThePeskyPole6]

I just wanted to let the community know that I have started a Red Sox dynasty starting in 1942. My favorite book has always been The Teammates by David Halberstam which is about Ted Williams, Bobby Doerr, Johnny Pesky and Dom Dimaggio. It is story about their lifetime friendship and of course their years together as teammates. 1942 is the first season where they are all teammates.It is Johnny Pesky's rookie year. World War II would interrupt them after 1942 only to reunite them in 1946 where they were just one win away from winning it all. They would come close again in 1948 and 1949 but that would be it.

The great thing about OOTP is the chance to re-create history. I wonder what would have happened in 1943-1945, they were all in their prime. Would there have been a title for the guys? What would Ted Williams' career numbers look like?

These are all questions that will be fun to answer. I play all my games out and I update the daily happenings on twitter @1942RedSox I will post monthly detailed posts on this thread and on my blog. Follow me along on twitter, here and on my blog. Here is my first blog post about some of the basic setup of the dynasty. I look forward to you guys following along and interacting. Thanks
