So my loathing blinded me to the fact that I was watching the 7th best player of all time (Clemens)?

Same here. I don't think he belongs nearly that high. He certainly isn't the greatest pitcher of all time.

Well he played for both the Yankees and the Red Sox so that accounts for a lot of bonus points with ESPN.

Jeter at 32 is terrible. So overrated

Griffey should be top 10. When he was healthy he was the closest thing to perfect on a baseball field.

Winning 7 Cy Youngs and 1 MVP certainly doesn't hurt either.

I might have put Mays ahead of Ruth (although I never saw Ruth play) if Ruth hadn't pitched so well, once holding the record for consecutive shutout World Series innings, 29.2. Of course, the list really doesn't mean anything. Shoeless Joe Jackson was a better player than Derek Jeter, or even Reggie Jackson. |

No way is he a top 10 player. He should actually be a little lower in this list.

It's hard to say with Frisco fans picking Mays over Bonds. I feel most of em nowdays are pretty biased towards Bonds. I also think think Yankee fans take a back seat to the arrogance of SF fans. Last edited by chicagowhitesox1; 12-14-2012 at 02:59 AM. |

Since these guys aren't holding PED's as a factor you are 100 percent right.

Not sure what the criteria is for this list, if you had to have been a MLB player. But it's a crime that Josh Gibson is no where to be found on here.

They only used Major League stats. One of the writers did talk about the stars of the Negro Leagues. I think Gibson and Charleston would be top 10-15 players if they were allowed to play. But it is hard to rank them without knowing what they did on a MLB field. Josh Gibson could have been another Bo Jackson, I think he woulda been more like Ruth or Foxx but it still is hard to say.

I always thought those WW2 players should get more consideration for the hof. Cecil Travis, Mickey Vernon, Johnny Pesky in my opinion should already be in. I always thought Cecil Travis and his case for the Hall of Fame was interesting yet he's completly forgotten to the veterans commitee. |
