Sorry, I lost myself as well. I read your post too quick. I missed the part where you said there were 10,000 position players. I don't have access to the DB now. It can be downloaded for free here:
Download Database - baseball1.com
If you have MS Access you can download that version. If you have Excel you can downlaod the comma-delimited version. You can then import the tables to Excel and use "text to columns" to get the data in a spreadsheet format. At least I think that's how I did it. If any of this is foreign to you I can help out some. I will try longtime's query tomorrow, unless someone beats me to it.
