Mike Scott over Oswalt and Berkman is unforgivable.

Seems relevant..

Most fWAR with any single team:

Babe Ruth (Yankess) - 149.9
Willie Mays (Giants) - 147.8
Ty Cobb (Tigers) - 143.4
Hank Aaron (Braves) - 136.0
Ted Williams (Red Sox) - 130.4
Honus Wagner (Pirates) - 127.2
Stan Musial (Cardinals) - 126.8

That... that is quite a list.

Meh, I was trying to give an "old school" player some love. Wagner> Oswalt> Berkman. Then Niekro, Wynn, blah blah.

No no no. Don't even built one in Seattle if you're leaving Edgar off. Firmly 2nd place behind Griff.

That IS quite a list! Does it stir up feelings inside you? Maybe, confusing feelings? It does for me.

Jr., Ichiro-san, Unit, then a coin flip between Edgar and AROD.

The reason Edgar wasn't the best player on his team is because he played with 3 of the absolute GOATs and then Ichiro!

Crazy how in baseball that doesn't translate to wins.

Jimmy Rollins ain't done yet. El Gigantes.


I'm surprised he only made 3 All Star teams.

And this is playing pretty loosely with the idea of the one that got away, but they had an agreement to purchase the rights to Willie Mays for $4500, and didn't because Cronin was a racist.

We need more players like Rickey Henderson in baseball.

In 1985, after being traded to the Yankees, Henderson was asked what it would be like to play on the same field as Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle. "I don't care about them. ... It's Rickey time."

"All I'm asking for is what I want."

"Kevin, this is Rickey, calling on behalf of Rickey. Rickey wants to play baseball," voice mail Henderson left for Padres GM Kevin Towers.

After a Seattle strikeout, the next batter heard him say as he returned to the dugout, "Don't worry, Rickey, you're still the best."

There's a bunch more and they are all great even without giving the back story for them which makes them even greater.

Lol. What a guy Rickey ****ing Henderson was. Really wish I could have watched more of his career.

Rickey is my #1 favourite player ever.

What group of people do you like

Straight white American atheist males? Does it need to get more specific than that to weed out everyone you don't like?

Don't care about sexuality or race. I just like it when celebrities and athletes live it up in ways other than worshipping God. Bro is boring, but has the personality to be very entertaining, like Rickey, but is held back by jeebus.
