I find it odd that one of the most popular players of all time (Mantle) is on no one's list.

[ejharrington]

Is this meant to be favorite players or best players?

IF...

we could agree on a lineup of the #1 at each position...

we put together lineups #2 through #10...

AND...

I'd hate to live on the difference between the actual results and 10 .500 ball clubs......LOL

So many people forget just how dominating Bob Gibson was for a decade. If I needed to win one game and I was assured he had his best stuff, I would send out Gibson every time. Especially in the postseason. I love his delivery follow through. It defies gravity.
