Which team had the greatest roster ever? Of course this is arguable, but for me the choice is pretty clear. It was the 1928 Philadelphia Athletics, who featured a Hall of Fame player at every position except 1st base and shortstop. Here was their HOF lineup:
Outfield: Ty Cobb, Tris Speaker, Al Simmons Infield: Eddie Collins (2b), Jimmy Foxx (3b), Mickey Cochrane (c) Pitcher: Lefty Grove So that's a HOF player in seven of the nine roster positions, and a grand total of eight if you count their HOF manager, Connie Mack. And these weren't your run-of-the-mill Hall of Fame players either. Was there ever a better MLB roster than that one? |
