The Big Unit blew up a bird.

You know it’s Spring Training when this anniversary comes around. On March 24, 2001, Randy Johnson exploded a bird

In 1986 they made calendars like this, “Greatest Moments in Baseball” with the cover featuring players like:

  • Joe DiMaggio (1936-1951)
  • Duke Snider (1947-1964)
  • Mickey Mantle (1951-1968)
  • Willie Mays (1948-1973)

The back of the calendar shows each month.

I can’t quite make out the players on the back of the album, so we’ll stick to the front.

In 1986, I was a ten-year-old baseball fan. We were inundated with items featuring players from the previous generation. It always seemed like players from the 1950s and 1960s were highlighted. What would happen if a calendar like this was produced today in 2024?

Let’s look at the best WAR year for each player on this calendar:

  • Joe DiMaggio 1941 (9.3)
  • Duke Snider 1952 (9.1)
  • Mickey Mantle 1957 (11.3)
  • Willie Mays 1965 (11.2)

In 1986, these years were:

  • 45 years ago
  • 34 years ago
  • 29 years ago
  • 21 years ago

If MLB were to make a calendar like that today in 2024, they would feature players with peak years in:

  • 1979
  • 1990
  • 1995
  • 2003

Here are the WAR leaders in each league (NL, AL) for these years:

  • 1979 Dave Winfield, Fred Lynn
  • 1990 Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens
  • 1995 Greg Maddux, Randy Johnson
  • 2003 Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez

I want to see a beautifully painted collage on a calendar of “Greatest Moments in Baseball” with players from these years.
