What more can I say about Crusens…well before we even became known as the Crusens Reds, they have been supporting the PSML for many years. We really couldn’t do it without the outstanding dedication to the community that Steven D Crusen and the entire Crusens family provides us, and for that we give a big thank you!!

We got some big names up there!!

We are excited to conclude our unveiling of the Peoria Sunday Morning League All-Quarter Century Teams with the final installment — the Modern Era (2001–2025).

During this period, the league continued to evolve as the overall depth of talent and level of competition reached new heights. Rosters became deeper, and the league became comprised of a strong mix of current collegiate players, former collegiate standouts, and former professional players. The Modern Era was defined by competitive balance, athleticism, and sustained excellence across every aspect of the game.

As we introduce these teams, selections were based on more than reputation or single-season performance. Each player was evaluated using a composite, era-adjusted model built from our historical data.

Hitters were graded using a weighted formula that balances production, consistency, and power:

Score = 0.35·Hits + 0.30·AVG + 0.20·Extra Base Hits + 0.15·ISO

ISO = (2B + 2·3B + 3·HR) / AB

85 hit minimum for Modern Era

All stats were normalized within their era to ensure fair comparisons across different time periods. This rewards players who combined sustained production with efficiency and impact power, rather than those with limited sample sizes.

Pitchers were evaluated based on workload, effectiveness, and dominance:

Score = 0.35·IP + 0.30·ERA (inverted) + 0.20·K/IP + 0.05·Win% + 0.10·BB/IP (inverted)

150 innings pitched minimum for Modern Era

Minimum innings thresholds were adjusted by era, and rate stats were inverted where appropriate so lower values were rewarded. This highlights pitchers who carried innings, prevented runs, missed bats, and limited free passes.

By combining multiple performance indicators and adjusting for era, this process identifies players who didn’t just perform well, but consistently stood out in one of the deepest and most competitive periods in league history.

Salute to the Modern Era of the PSML! 🫡
