Yeah. Only thing I have against Ruth is that he was a Yankee, and I'm a die-hard Red Sox fan.

i love the Red Sox. my favorite player there is Ted Williams.

Teddy Ballgame was a helluva player.

I'm gonna go on a limb and say Ty Cobb as one of the greatest players ever. How many years did it take for his all-time hits record to be broken? Close to 60, if I remember correctly.

well, the most obvious reason is because i'm a mets fan.
But there are actual statistics why.

Jesse Orosco:
what is there to say?
Have you ever seen him pitch?
He was extremely dominant, absolutely fantastic!

He had a lifetime 3.16 ERA with 1295 1/3 IP, 1179 SO, 87 wins.
He was also a dominating figure on the '86 Mets, and one of the reasons why they won the world series, alongside his teammate daryl strawberry


Daryl Strawberry:
Once again, part of the amazin '86 Mets.
His lifetime avg is a .259, but his tremendous help in '86 overshadows that.

It's hard to explain Strawberry.
He was just one of those players that you knew worked hard every single day, showed up, did his daily warmups.
He was always smiling, and he never lost faith.


He hit 335 HRS in his career, and is still one of the greatest ballplayers remembered.

i thought you were a White Sox fan neutral

no, he told me that he was a Mets fan too. he told me right after he said that you were a Giants fan.

btween you and me ninja i think hes a bandwagon jumper

hahaha.

there are so many bandwagon mets fans in NYC now.
It's hilarious.

I've never seen so many Mets hats on a subway car in my life.

Johnny Bench was pretty amazing, so I hear...I wish I had been around to see him play...

That's a very original one. Haven't heard anyone say Johnny Bench yet. Johnny Bench played every position, while playing, except pitcher. He was the MVP twice, was a 13 time all-star (12 of those were consecutive), and won ten strait gold gloves as a catcher.

I think it would be Willie Mays, Babe Ruth, or Hank Aaron  

[D-rey]

BABE RUTH!!!  

[SIeeping Prodigy]

Ted Williams and Cy Young  

[Boston Sports Fan]

Ted Williams for sure. If it wasn't for WW2 and the Korean War he would have been the HR king right now. He missed at least 5 full season.

- 17x AS
- 2 MVP
- Led the League in batting 6 times
- won the Triple Crwon twice
- Last player to hit .400 (.406)  

[Kiing James]

among active players who do you guys think is the greatest? i might be bias but it has to be manny. if it wasn't for his "injuries" he would be closing in on 600 home runs right now.
