Batflix - Bringing you the best Baseball and MLB content about your favorite baseballplayers on KZfaq.
The nostalgic sound of a bat hitting the ball, the aroma of freshly mowed grass, and the delight of savoring Cracker Jack during a baseball game all embody the essence of America's favorite pastime. The enduring appeal of baseball can be traced back to its rich history and the game's
unwavering essence over time.
Fascinatingly, even if your great-great-grandfather were magically transported to today's stadium, he would likely have no trouble following the modern game, thanks to its seamless continuity across generations.
This unique feature allows for more straightforward comparisons between players from different eras, which is precisely what I will be attempting to do here. Let's embark on this journey and see where it takes us!

As a Cadinals fan wih baseball memories since 1960 or so you included the greatest Cardinals player ever Stan Muial as number 10 which makes me happy. You also included Babe Ruth number one and Willie Mays number two which I agree on as well. My greatest Cardinals players ever that follow Musial are Bob Gibson, Albert Puhols, and Rogers Hornsby. Here is my all-time Cardinals lineup: Brock - LF Hornsby - 2B Musial - RF Puhols - 1B Edmonds - CF Boyer - 3B Molina - C Ozzie Smith -ss Bob Gibson -P My bench is Ted Simmons - c, Frankie Frisch and Red Schoendienst in the infield, Enos Slaugther and Joe Medwick in the outfield.

I think you must have a catcher on here. Johnny Bench or Yogi Berra (I lean Bench because he was such a great fielder and catcher is a fielding-first position.) Or Josh Gibson -- but including NL players opens a whole can of worms. Mike Schmidt (3B) probably also belongs. And as much as I didn't care for him and that he was one-dimensional offensively, Pete Rose. His tenacity and longevity can't be overlooked. (Frank Robinson, Roberto Clemente, Christy Mathewson, Grover Alexander other **possible** omissions.)

Since you're actually fielding a team, you need a second catcher, so Berra I suppose. (Well, Josh Gibson if you're not excluding Negro League players.) I think you must have Aaron, but I can't argue against any of your OFs. I don't think you actually need a knuckleballer (or screwball pitcher; I would add Randy Johnson or Maddux instead), but cool to include one. 🙂

YES. F the juicers. If Pete Rose isn't in the hall for something that MIGHT have affected games, BB, MMcG, RC, JC, ARod, etc should be banned from the game too. F'n cheaters. A little baseline or an emeroy board is one thing- injecting, abusing, and cheating by using illegal drugs is another altogether! (Re: Rose- I get they Giamatti had to come down on him so hard- Baseball is still dealing with gambling and 1919. Still, I hope he gets in the hall, even if it has to be post mortum, as his final punishment. If Bonds, Clemens, etc, ever get in they deserve a bunch of big fat asterisks ******!

Overall, it's a good list. But lets talk #8 and #7? Mantle was broken down by time he turned 33 sure. But Bonds and his "incredible statistics" are insanely inflated AFTER age 35. Like the 268 HRs....AFTER 35. His OPS being .979 through 35, or prior to 2001...which was 1.298 from ages 36 through 42. Or his batting average being .289 through 35 and .334 after roids. Sorry, his "alleged steroid use" as stated in this video. Bonds was great before steroids. But he was no Mickey Mantle.

These lists, while fun to argue about, are pretty meaningless. First off, pitchers are really their own thing: you can't compare them to batsmen, and the contribution they make to the team is entirely different. Secondly, you really can't compare players across ages with any kind of validity. Best you can do is pick who were the most dominant players from the different eras. So a guy like Cobb should rank higher, for example, than Aaron, because he was clearly better than anyone else around at the time. Aaron had guys like Mays, Mantle, and Robinson around compiling similar records. But in the end, it's just opinions. BTW, Cobb wasnt the slathering racist monster of legend, not did he sharpen his spikes. The dumb lies shouldn't he endlessly repeated. He was just a really smart and aggressive player, and he was highly respected by his competitors.

I didn't get the comment during the Honus Wagner segment, when u said he had a .328 batting avg. despite playing in the challenging "deadball" era. While it was more difficult to hit homeruns during that era, it was obviously much easier to hit the ball for average. Just look back at the stats from the most succesful players durimg thst era. I mean multiple people would regularly hit over .400 during the same season. The league batting average back then was crazy high, and much higher then the "live ball" era.

You have to recognize that there was a much smaller pool of players since MLB had no more than 16 teams in the early days. So, hitting 400 back then was much more of an achievement than hitting 400 today.

Negro League players are missing (except for Mays and Aaron, who started in the NNLs) So, some of the greatest are missing (maybe even THE greatest- except for Ruth, of course!)- This list is missing, at least, Oscar Charleston, Paige, Pop Lloyd, and Josh Gibson, who were all among the greatest! ...And Cool Papa Bell! Satchel Paige had a sub-3 ERA in the Majors- after his rookie season when he was over 50 years old. In the negro leagues (which were probably as good as the majors in his time), over the years he threw a TON of no-hitters. Not only 7 like Nolan Ryan, not 10, or 15... But 100! (Well, he did pitch around 120 games each year, so he had the opportunity to do so. 100 is still hard to believe, but even if he had one fifth as many... And: Paige would pull a stunt when a game was on the line by waving the outfielders to leave the field- and would proceed to strike out the side... He had a winning record against major league all star touring teams in the off season, too. When Honus Wagner was asked what he thought about Pop Lloyd being called 'the black Honus Wagner', he said 'I'd be honored to be called the white Pop Lloyd!' And, Re: 'Cool Papa's Bell'... A famous baseball writer once said that 'He is so fast, he makes Ty Cobb look like a runner with a handicap!' Josh Gibson had over 800 home runs against MLB quality pitchers- and he died in his prime! And Charleston? He is most like Babe Ruth. (Ruth is still #1, of course!) Also missing from this list is #23.

Pete Rose and Roberto Clemente in place of Rickey Henderson and Ichiro Suzuki . Pete and Ty Cobb probably helped their teams win more games than anyone because they had the most hits . Base hits win ballgames , especially singles . Pete had just as much power as Aaron , as he hit more doubles and triples than Hank . Rickey was one of the most selfish non - team players as he would attempt to steal bases if the Oakland A's were winning or losing by 9 runs just to set stolen base records . That isn't baseball . Rickey's runs scored and stolen bases total should have an asterisk next to them .

Maybe push DiMaggio out Eh on ichiro…. So Otherwise, minor tweaks You’ll get the Jackie /Clemente comments but they transcended in other ways, and I agree not having them on this list.

How is it possible to have a top 20 list without the greatest catcher in baseball history, Johnny Bench? Bench is not only a top 20 he’s in the top ten. I’m also not impressed with three of the biggest cheaters in baseball history, Bonds, Clemons and spit ball Maddox are on this list. Also, having a grad degree in human biology myself anyone who thinks using anabolic steroids and HGH is controversial in regard to the performance gains just simply doesn’t know what they are talking about. That boat sailed a long time ago and there is absolutely solid undisputed scientific evidence that these PED’s do give baseball players substantial advantages.

@@Grizzlied555 You crazy. Catcher is the most important defensive position player on a team and Bench is undeniably the best catcher in MLB history. Not only that he could hit a ton. Most don’t. There has never been a MLB catcher who were as good both defensively and offensively as Bench and he won a ton of games for the Reds by preventing opposing players from advancing or stealing bases. Best there ever was at throwing out base stealers . Definitely a top ten.
