I bet they probably also put sugar on their porridge.

If anyone is interested in a semi-scientific study, there is a Player Collection thread on Blowout forums. If the length of the lines are indicative of anything other than character count, then the five most popular players to collect are:

Ken Griffey. Jr
Bryce Harper
Derek Jeter
Nolan Ryan
David Wright

Added in edit: The question was who the most collected players are, not the most collectible. Out in the workaday world, there is a difference.
