All-Time Halloween Team II
There were enough great suggestions from readers to create a whole new squad, one—I dare say—that would clobber the original one posted last week. And STILL suggestions are welcome. (Why not make them right here?)

All-Time Giants/Phillies Team
Given that both these franchises date back to 1883, it will come as no surprise that there have been literally hundreds of players who have worn both uniforms. Here are the best of them, fashioned, for your convenience, into one nifty imaginary squad. The Giants played their first couple of seasons as the Gothams. The Phillies changed from the Quakers in 1890 and briefly called themselves the Blue Jays 1943-44.

All-Time Willie Mac Team
The Willie Mac Award is named in honor of Giants Hall of Fame slugger Willie McCovey and is awarded annually to the San Francisco Giants player who best exemplifies the spirit and leadership shown by McCovey throughout his career. No serious consideration has even been given to re-naming it the Anti-Bonds Award.
