I have always put Mickey and Joe D in my top seven. I think you have to give credit to Joe for the three missing seasons due to WW2. For list placing purposes. Joe's lifetime BA was .325. Mickey's .298. In 18 years Mickey hit 536 HRs for 29.7 per. In 13 years Joe hit 361 for 27.7 per. Joe didn't have the short porch advantage Mickey had while hitting lefthanded. Joe was in 10 WS and was 9-1. Mickey was in 12 and was 7-5. Joe was, for all of Mickey's speed, a better fielder. He was more of a team leader than Mickey (this, I know, is very subjective and based on my readings). I would be curious as to how Yankee fans would rate the top 5 Yankees of all time. Bill James, for example, rates Lou Gehrig rather low. I've see Lou as high as #2 on baseball's all-time list. |
