Sisler was a monster and one of the most under appreciated players in the hobby. But you didn't hear that from me...

In that 27 I think the purpose should be to form a complete team. You could have 2 at each position, 2 DH, and 9 pitchers, or just carry 3 at each position without DH. I don't know enough about deadball to make any assessment.

Yeah, when Tony juiced there was no added muscle mass, only his waist line got bigger :p He was a true talent.

And so, the most corrupt player in baseball history, Hal Chase, gets a shout out on Sisler's HOF plaque.

Very interesting that Hal Chase gets mentioned in the HOF for doing something positive, albeit his mention is indirect. Thanks for pointing out the reference.

Couldn't agree more. Tony was so great he is the only super star to have his by far best 4 year run from age 34 to age 37. He was so amazing even the known juicers couldn't do that.

As for adding muscle mass I also couldn't agree more. Just look at Lance Armstrong one of the biggest juicers ever. He put Lou and Arnold to shame with his mass. Same goes for all those pitchers that have been busted over the years. With all that muscle mass they had it is amazing they could even throw a ball.

To get back on topic I don't have a all time list because I really am not a huge fan of the game or its history. I absolutely loved going to games and have been to 100s in person. My collecting has mostly been about error cards and Wade Boggs items. I have owned many cards of the all time greats but get tired of them quickly and sell to get other cards that I get tired of and sell. It has been a vicious cycle but I have owned some great cards over the last few decades.

My top 27, without regard to position (notice I don't have a catcher):

Walter Johnson
Cy Young

Grover Alexander
