SP - Cy Young
SP - Walter Johnson SP - Lefty Grove SP - Roger Clemens RP - Mariano Rivera RP - Hoyt Wilhelm C - Yogi Berra 1B - Lou Gehrig 2B - Eddie Collins 3B - Mike Schmidt SS - Honus Wagner LF - Barry Bonds CF -Mays or Cobb depending on the day of the week RF - Babe Ruth I don’t think we can quantify greatness in any meaningful way beyond looking at the output of their careers. Josh Gibson, Satchell Paige, they may well be deserving but we cannot know; they have very brief recorded “major league” careers, and talent was not so centered in those leagues as it was in the NL and AL. RP, C and 3B are the weakest positions most ripe for someone to take over the slots. Disclaimer: I am cognizant that this is a matter of opinion and not true/false dichotomy, because greatest is a imprecise word we are not defining narrowly by which we could arrive at a total answer within the set parameters. It’s just fun. |
