[edit] Expos all-time roster
Much like the Washington Senators roster is combined with the Minnesota Twins all-time roster (among countless other examples), the Expos all-time roster should be combined with the Nationals all-time roster. --Wolfer68 (talk) 23:28, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
The Washington Senators rosters -- both those combined with the Minnesota Twins all-time roster and the Texas Rangers all-time roster should be combined with the Nationals all-time roster. The Montreal Expos played in Montreal. The Senators played in Washington, and as the Nationals try to honor the memory of players like Walter Johnson and [Frank Howard], it's worthwhile to combine them into one. 69.143.186.133 (talk) 00:22, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
==Expos all-time roster==When discussing all-time franchise rosters then it makes sense to combine any of the previouos team rosters that make up the history of that franchise. When discussing specific team rosters, say the Montreal Expos all-time roster, they should remain seperate from their current team rosters, as well as any team records and retired numbers. The current Washington Nationals made this seperation when they chose to release the three jersey numbers (Gary Carter's 8, Andre Dawson and Rusty Staub's 10, Tim Raines' 30) retired by the Montreal Expos. Chrisgauvin (talk) 16:01, 19 May 2008 (UTC):Yes, I agree. That's why there are the categories, Category:Montreal Expos players and Category:Washington Nationals players, just as there are now separate categories for even Category:Tampa Bay Devil Rays players and Category:Tampa Bay Rays players. The reference to records and retired numbers are separate discussions from these franchise roster lists, which I think should combined here because it's the only "franchise" list that is not complete and is inconsistent with every other franchise all-time roster list. Wolfer68 (talk) 19:05, 25 May 2008 (UTC)::I agree with this train of thought. The only referrence that I would deam acceptable is the players that appeared in both the last season of "Nos Z'amours" (french nickname for the Expos) and the first season of the washington nationals. No other linkage as for the purpose that they disgraced the hard work of the players whos' numbers got retired by the 'Spos for all of their hard work while wearing the Montreal Expos uniform. 207.47.230.237 (talk) 23:12, 8 June 2008 (UTC)plashfire
