How would you rank these players?
 
I would put all these guys in the category of power hitter, strong career numbers but not automatic HOF type numbers. I am curious how people would rank them or group them. These are not in any particular order except as they come to mind.

Bagwell
Perez
Cepeda
Beltran
Delgado
Dawson
Rice
McGriff
Guerrero
Andruw Jones
Murphy

I don't have a strong or informed sense of it but I would put Bagwell and Guerrero at the top of the list.

Have to think about those for a while. When looking at a list like that, I'd ask myself, "Self, in what order would you pick these guys if you were starting a team and you could have them for their entire career?"

Agree with Guerrero (V?) and Bagwell.. but the one that stands out of that group for all around ability is Andre Dawson. He is the best of that bunch imo. The other two are not far behind.

Tough task, Peter.
Not one player on that list really stands out for me. Vlad number one, mainly because I always liked him. I like Dawson as well. Perez and Cepeda coin flip for last and then fill in the rest

As a Mets fan, no matter what the order is, Beltran is dead last. Maybe his cumulative career numbers put him higher up the ladder than other players, but that guy was a huge bag of frustration, as un-clutch as it gets. Of course, if the Metties were up 10-0, THEN he would hit a three run homer.
