[Dr Pepper]

Well I'm gonna kick things off with Josh Gibson, C.

Those who were lucky enough to see both play, referred to Babe Ruth as the "white Josh Gibson".

@sarge88

 

[sarge88]

Probably the only pick I‘ll be able to make until tonight….

One of the best RHP in history and maybe the best in the last 15 years.

Justin Verlander.
@Count Dooku

 

[Say Hey Kid]

I would have taken Gibson who may have been a better hitter than Ruth and I like Verlander, because he's a former Tiger and my grandmother used to take me to the 1970s Tigers. I'll settle for what I consider the best righty OF and righty RP available. @sarge88

OF Mike Trout

RP Mariano Rivera

 

[sarge88]

1B Miguel Cabrera


Consistent, productive, at times dominating middle of the order anchor.

A rare Triple Crown Winner, 2x MVP.

@Dr Pepper

 

[Dr Pepper]

Clayton Kershaw, SP
Ernie Banks, SS

Kershaw going to lead the way for my rotation, Banks the cornerstone of my infield.

@sarge88

 

[sarge88]

Frank Thomas - DH

2x MVP

5X All star -- 4X Silver Slugger

@Count Dooku

 

[Say Hey Kid]

I was gonna take Thomas and Kershaw. I'll settle for a lefty OF who did not tank in the World Series and the best active righty SP. Like Eddie Van Halen and this SP's ancestors, my grandfather immigrated from Holland. @sarge88

Shoeless Joe Jackson, OF

Jacob deGrom, SP

 

[sarge88]

SP - Tom Glavine

WS Champion
WS MVP
10X AS

@Dr Pepper

 

[Dr Pepper]

Sandy Koufax, SP
Jackie Robinson, 2B

Two more absolute legends, each for his own reason.

@sarge88

 

[sarge88]

CF Ken Griffey Jr.

One of the most well rounded players of the ERA -- 10X Gold Glove winner -- 7X Silver Slugger - 13X All Star.

@Count Dooku

 

[sarge88]

Sorry for taking so long. Griffey's on the exempt list. Please use control F to search before you pick. I'll wait for you to re-pick. @sarge88

My bad ----


RF Tony Gwynn

@Count Dooku

 

[Say Hey Kid]

No worries. My 1B was RotY, a 12x AS, won the 1989 WS, won a GG, and is a 3x SS. My SP is widely considered one of the top dozen SP all-time. @sarge88

1B Mark McGwire

SP Satchel Paige

 

[sarge88]

SS Barry Larkin

Tremendously well rounded and consistent.

10X All Star
9x Silver Slugger
WS champion

@Dr Pepper

 

[Dr Pepper]

Brooks Robinson, 3B
Trevor Hoffman, RP

One of the greatest 3Bs of all time, and one hell of a closer.

@sarge88

 

[sarge88]

SP Max Scherzer

WS Champion
2X Cy Young

@Count Dooku

 

[Say Hey Kid]

Hank Greenberg, 1B - 2 MVPs, 5x AS, top 25 in OPS+, my dad's favorite player, a Tiger, and he and Koufax are arguably the 2 best Jewish players.

Hoyt Wilhelm, RP - 2 ERA titles, 8x AS, top 3 in RP JAWS, knuckler. I like my post. @sarge88

 

[sarge88]

2B Roberto Alomar


12x All-Star
2x World Series
10x Gold Glove
4x Silver Slugger
ALCS MVP
AS MVP

​

@Dr Pepper

 

[Dr Pepper]

Johnny Mize, 1B
Jim Palmer, SP

16 all stars and 8 championships between the two.

@sarge88

 

[sarge88]

LF - Manny Ramirez

2X WS Champion
WS MVP
9X Silver Slugger
12X All Star
511 HR
1,675 RBI
.312 Career BA

Not bad for a guy who will hit 5th in my lineup.

@Count Dooku

 

[Say Hey Kid]

Aaron Judge, OF - My 5th hitter. He may break Maris' HR record.

Dan Quisenberry, RP - My 3rd RP. @sarge88

 

[sarge88]

CF Kenny Lofton

MLB may not value SB’s, but I do.

6x AS
4 Time Gold Glove

.299 BA
Over 1,500 Runs
Over 600 SB

@Dr Pepper

 

[Say Hey Kid]

I like the pick and SBs. He's on my list. I'm starting to question SBs' value though, because the player who is 2nd in SBs hit .293, and is only 405th in bWAR.

I think the value is in the guys with a high success rate.

I mean if you can turn 85% or more of your singles or walks into doubles, it’s got to be a good thing.

Agreed.
