I am guessing Bob's picks/choices were likely the main reasons, but it will be interesting to hear what TedZ has to say?

Not tooting my own horn here but this article holds some water with what I was thinking.

Also, like they mention in this piece, these players were likely highly sought after as well.
This sheet featured all-time greats: Phil Rizzuto, Warren Spahn, Gil Hodges, Duke Snider and Robin Roberts.
This is also a great piece/site, if you will. Tons of great info which I have used repeatedly for various reasons.
