I agree with a bunch of you...
Mr. Reality 68 up there has five listed: Hornsby Aaron Mays Wagner Pujols I lean towards it being among those guys. And they're all close. Close on their heels would be Al Simmons, Ed Delahanty and Pete Browning; but those 3 are behind that top 5. I REALLY like Bill James' first Historical Baseball Abstract. In my estimation, that is one fine book. I like the two pages he gives to Ed Reulbach. However, one eye opening moment for me was reading his perception of what a fine, great, superlative baseball player Willie Mays was. I saw him play. But I think that a baseball fan would need to have been born about 1930 or earlier, then live about 85 years, to fully appreciate just what a player Willie was. And that's coming from me, a Stan Musial fan. |
