He was fun to watch, but not even close to the best all time. But to each his own. |

If I were a GM, these are the players I'd want for the upcoming years:
1st: Albert Pujols - Duh 2nd: Dustin Pedroia - Hard to argue with Pedroia at second Short: Troy Tulowitzki - Still progressing with the bat, Cal Ripkin Jr. style defense, great club house presence. He's got the arm of God and he'll show it to you on a daily basis. Jeter was his idol growing up if that tells you anything. 3rd: Ian Stewart - Going to be a star in the next few years. Extreme long ball capability, stellar defense. LF: Carlos Gonzales - 5 tool prospect that is coming into his own. Drafted and signed at the age of 16 IIRC, this kid really does have it all. He's fast. He can field. He can hit. He's got it all. CF: Andrew McCutchen - Young kid projects to be a force on both sides of the ball. RF: Andre Ethier - Another left handed bat with good clubhouse presence and game changing capability Starting 5: 1. Zach Greinke - cy young shoe in 2. Roy Halladay - Domination 3. Tim Lincecum - The Freak 4. Cliff Lee - Solid lefty with pin point control 5. Ubaldo Jiminez - 5 pitch pitcher with a 100mph fastball. Need I say more? Ok, he's also a workhorse. At one point this season he had pitched at least 6 innings 25 consecutive times. Catching: 1. Joe Mauer - Should I go on? 2. Chris Ianetta - Superb throwing arm, would make an excellent back up catcher to Joe Mauer. He's capable of 30 plus homers in a year if he's starting guy. Again, these are the guys I'd want on my roster if I were a GM today. I might add players off the bench and bullpen arms later. |

I couldn't exclude Edgar. I think he really changed the way that teams considered the DH position, and he anchored an already really good (at least on paper) M's team through the '90s. Before his hamstring injuries pretty much relegated him to DH-only duty, he was actually a pretty good defensive 3rd baseman too. |

You guys know that baseball was played before 1970? I just ask because I barely see any players listed from that time period.
Also, someone said they think Jeter is going to go down as the greatest shortstop in history?? You should google Honus Wagner, Ernie Banks, and Joe Sewell. |

Including 3 starters and 3 relievers. I'll go first. Catcher-Johnny Bench 1st base-Albert Pujols 2nd base- Joe Morgan Shortstop- Ozzie Smith 3rd base- Ken Caminiti Left- Reggie Jackson (I know, he played right) Center-Willie Mays Right-Roberto Clemente Starters: Bob Gibson, Tom Seaver and Catfish Hunter Relief- Mariano Rivera, Rollie Fingers and Goose Gossage. Always debatable...that's OK. HH Do you hate Nolan Ryan ? If you had read the thread, you'd see Nolan and Vida Blue as my 4th and 5th starters. RIF. HH |

Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Left Field: Ted Willams Center Field: Ty Cobb Right Field: Pete Rose Shortstop: Cal Ripkin Jr. Starting Pitcher: Satchel Paige Middle Relief: Walter Johnson Closer: Mariano Rivera First Base: Lou Gehrig Second Base: Jackie Robinson Third Base: Mike Schmidt Catcher: Ivan Rodriguez These are all my picks, assuming they are all playing in their prime. Jesus god, its about time someone posted Ty Cobb. I was beginning to wonder if any of you people actually knew baseball. No self respecting person from Michigan would DARE not mention Ty Cobb. One of the greatest baseball players EVER. He got MORE votes than Babe Ruth did for being inducted into the hall of fame. It's good to see someone knows their baseball. I just wrote a paper on Cobb two weeks ago, his impact on baseball and contribution to the dead ball era for a Theory of Baseball(coaching minor) class of mine. Got 100% on it. You can tell who the REAL Baseball fans are by looking at some of these lists, looks like they don't know squat about Baseball history. Only know what they saw during their lives. |
