A Blog By Dean
Ask any pitcher from the 4 decades McCovey played in if they would rather face him or Freeman, Murray, or any other player on your list.
Cap Anson did more to keep black players out of Major League Baseball than anyone who was not an owner or executive. It may be unfair, but he'd never make my top 10 list.
That’s why it’s my Top 10
I believe Dean chose this list on skill sets, not politics.
A top 10 without Jeff Bagwell is criminal.
You can’t put Connor in here. Heck I’d rather see Joe Pepitone 😂. Seriously you have to go with Helton or McCovey. Maybe Murray.
Donnie Baseball?! Keith Hernandez?!
My number 1: (helped by ChatGPT)
Lou Gehrig
.340 career batting average
493 home runs
2 MVP awards
6 World Series titles
Legendary durability (“The Iron Horse”)
Career cut short by ALS
Cabrera at 6 feels very low
You’d think the greatest defensive 1B of all time would at least get an honorable mention
