Yeah, like Orr and Gretzky, which do you wanna build with....
Ruth, to me is just such an easy choice in an all time setting. Not only was he the most dominant offensive player of all time, he was a really, really good pitcher in Boston. Guy just flat out owned the game of baseball in a way nobody ever has. One other hitter was close, but had almost 5 full years lost to multiple wars.
While his abilities and prowess at the plate are unquestioned, Ruth was also a prolific pitcher. Despite this he will spend his time in Cleveland manning one of the two corner infield spots which he played almost equally throughout his career.
Don't worry. Looks like Indians may be playing Ruth at third base.
Probably in minority but i don't think there should be a clock in round 1. Just until people get into swing of things. JMO anyways.
