I blame youtube. I have a good friend that decides to believe some fool on youtube over true scientists. It honestly makes me sad.

My list of 5 most fascinating players:
1. Moe Berg
2. Hal Chase
3. Jackie Robinson
4. Ted Williams
5. Babe Ruth

Mine would be....

1 Cap Anson
2 Cy Young
3 Turkey Donlin
4 Ty Cobb
5 Grover Cleveland Alexander

With Anson the most fascinating, as arguably the premier 19th century superstar and original hit king.
