Wagner was the most versatile of the deadball players. He had the skills to play virtually every position on the Diamond and the arm to pitch if he wanted to do. He could run like the wind and hit the ball to virtually any spot in the stadium. |

Wagner may well have been better than Cobb but I would not put huge stock in their contemporaries opinions. Wagner seems to have been as universally well liked as Cobb was detested. I'd bet this had more than a little to do with how players ranked them. |

Rather than guess about ulterior motives, I prefer to trust the general opinion of the best baseball minds of the deadball era. (which the old timers called "inside baseball" rather than the prejorative "deadball"). Along with the ten greats listed by Peter Spaeth, I will mention that oldtimers had a lot of repect for Willie Keeler way back when. |

Cobb was the American League's answer to Willie Keeler. Actually, Keeler outhit Cobb while he was in the NL (.371 to .366). With the Highlanders though, Keeler couldn't average .300. |
