Stan Coveleski did not accomplish much in his brief time with the Philadelphia Athletics in 1912, and after a few years in the minors, Covelski was back and ready to dominate.

A two-sport star (Basketball and Baseball) at the University of Illinois, Lou Boudreau focused on Baseball, and the Cleveland Indians were blessed by that decision.

The Boston Red Sox made another regrettable trade before they jettisoned Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees.  A couple of years early, they traded Centerfielder Tris Speaker, who they asked to take a pay cut after an off-year (where he still batted .322!).  Speaker refused, and the former MVP two-time World Series Champion and was traded to Cleveland in 1916.

If anyone was going to be number one on this list over Bob Feller, it is Napoleon Lajoie, who we are still openly debating whether we made a mistake on this one.
