Steve Proper - Won a batting title in a metal bat league with a wood bat, like an adult.
Retired Number: 8
Larry Kirby - He couldn't throw, he couldn't catch, he learned to hit and was as good a person and teammate as you could ever hope for. RIP Larry, the world could have used many more years of you.
19- Semi-Retired Number
Scott Riel - An integral part of the early Wobblies, taught us how to set things on fire and launch them into the air. Known for extraordinary last minute grabs, a willingness to miss balls in deep CF and gun down anyone who tried to score when he did.
22- Semi-Retired Number
Andy Carhart. - Andy Carhart, for good or ill, says it all viz a viz the Wobblies.
37- Semi-Retired
Matt Midboe - He was fucking Midboe, the best pitcher the Wobblies have ever had.
THE Bill Peterson - Bill isn't playing this year (2021), but he is without a doubt the honest heir of the 'Midboe Jersey' and deserves his place in the Wobbly Hall of Fame.
14-Semi-Retired Number
Dan "Biscuits" Carmony - An astonishing OBP machine, for all intents and purposes, the original and to this day, true Wobbly catcher. Moved to Tixass at some point where he fell afoul of the local constabulary who damaged his rotator cuffs in an effort to execute a sentence of witchery. His arms are still attached, which is testimony to the enduring invincibility of all true Wobblies.
