@@mikesbaseballcards you’re not the only one that mentions Bowa. Thanks for watching.

@@billsouthorn2003 I agree. He had some above average seasons in the 70’s but his best years were in the 60’s. All of his gold gloves are from the 60’s.

@@mikesbaseballcards I considered Randolph but didn’t feel that his numbers equaled what the other guys put up. You do make a good point about the WS Championships though. Thanks for watching.

LOL. Simpson was truly great, and that is coming from someone that lives in Buffalo. But Payton was great too and I feel that he did more with less. It was a very difficult call and I am still not certain that I got it right!! Thank you for watching.

Thank you for subscribing and especially your very kind words!!! Have a great weekend.

@@jamesmazzola7031 another great player that just wasn’t as great as some of the others. It’s hard putting a list of only top 10 or 5 together. Someone always gets left out. Thanks again for watching.

@@jamesmazzola7031 he had a couple of superior seasons in the 79’s but I left him off the list because his totals for the decade were low compared to others. He just got a late start. Thanks for the comment and for watching the video.

@@JohnnyCleary-m3m he came around in the 80’s. Thanks for watching my video.

@@ChrisBerry-ew2yx thank you.

@@chrisweidner4768 thanks for the great and info……….and for watching. 😎

@@japrufrock3909 apparently he went to the crash site and tried to be helpful in recovering bodies for many days, despite the threat of sharks in the area.

@@alanmize5627 you might be correct. Thanks for watching.

@@edlutz7218 possibly in the 80’s.

@@edlutz7218 not sure who James Carville is. My name is Steve.

@@davechester4147 Bob Boone was close to the top 5. Honestly, Carter was further back. He was great in the 80’s, but in the 70’s he had one pretty good season and a couple of slightly above average seasons with zero gold gloves. Thank you for watching.

@@bnx200 lol. Maybe someday I’ll do a best catchers of the ‘60’s video.

@@stever6885 he had one decent season but is most famous for getting run over by Rose. Thanks for watching. 😎

@@joeheid2776 I read that he was a great garbage pitcher hitter that became very frustrating to opposing pitchers. Thanks for the information and for watching.

@@PackAddictRips when I was making this I wondered how many you’d recognize. Thanks for watching Jason.

@@rpc717 he was on my list of candidates but didn’t make the top 5. Thank you for watching. 😎

@@64north20west it’s my pleasure. I learn so very much when I put these videos together. Thank you for watching. 😎

@@MichaelMoore-no9ly great story. Thank you!!

@@lamontbradford4630 thanks for the info and thank you for watching. 😎

@@paulweston8408 they could not stand each other.

@@halfcenturycollectingcards what’s harder than picking than too 5, is putting them in the correct order. Thanks for your comment and for watching. 😎

@@Noname-ni1dy I would listen to that argument. I’m not a Yankees fan but Munson was pretty damn good.

@@mikesbaseballcards thanks for the great information and for watching.

Whenever the Yankees came to California, my folks took me to see them when they played the Angels. My Dad was a Yankee fan, and so am I. It's way past time for his induction to The Baseball Hall Of Fame, I would pick Thurman Munson over any catcher in his time.

@ thank you for watching.

@@kimkelly5512 Great watching the 1970s Yankees, Nettles, Pinella, Hunter, Randolph, etc...I did an episode on my favorite Yankees about a year ago. Take care.

I can see Fisk over Simmons, but not Carter over any of these guys. Carter was great, but all of his best years were in the 80’s.

@@JohnMichaelFrazier-sk4wi thank you for watching.

@@Scaredycat-dad lol. Bench was soooooo much better than everyone else, I made a joke out of it.

@@Scaredycat-dad thank you for watching!!

@@javiermora4068 thank you. There were so many great outfielders in the 70’s. I don’t quite remember what caused me to leave Cedeno off the list.

Almost as good. During 70s Bench won 8 gloves; Grote won none.

Ummmm I don’t think so.

Jerry Grote couldn't carry Bench's jock.😂

@@ronloomis9555 lol

@@michaelderose397 they changed the expectations for that position.

Nope

@ron88303 How about Duffy Dyer?

@@BBB-Schmuck he never came up when I was researching this project. I never heard of him. I’ll have to look them up.

@@BBB-Schmuck Nope. Pretty anemic offensive numbers, and average defensively.

@@ron88303 then what about Barry Foote?

Ditto.

@@markcarpenter4469 thank you for watching.

I give Munson a tiny edge over Fisk: More gold gloves, higher % of runners thrown out, and higher RBI efficiency. But they're close.

@@ronniecozzi8385 I was surprised to learn that he’s not.

I didn't realize that he's not!!! That's crazy!!!

@ I was surprised too.

At least for the seventies.

I can't argue about Schmidt, but some might argue Yogi Berra or Josh Gibson instead of Bench. Although Gibson's sample size is too small (at least for me), Berra was 3x MVP and finished in top 5 voting four other times. Fifteen all-star games, virtually same OPS+, higher RBI efficiency, and better percentage throwing runners out.

@@ron88303 your knowledge is amazing. You should be making these videos!!

While I agree with Schmidt as the GOAT for 3nd base, many would say Brooks Robinson or George Brett could make a claim to that title.

I will argue Brooks Robinson and George Brett at 3rd.

Yogi Berra may be the correct answer.

@@9Ballr lol

@@ron88303 I would put Berra second.

How does Munson get an incomplete if we are talking 1970s? He played the whole decade, save the last two months. People can argue that Fisk and Simmons had better careers because they played longer, but in the 70s Munson clearly had the stronger body of work.

In seventies Carter wasn't at same level as Munson, Fisk, or Simmons. He's pretty comparable to Sanguillen, although I'd go with Sanguillen for the seventies since he had 2,000 more plate appearances.

@@petermiller564 not saving him as I haven’t looked at his 80’s numbers yet, but I didn’t think that his 70’s number were up there with these guys. I know that he was well liked and very popular and I wonder if that elevates him with some fans.

@@urbangorilla33you’re right he was top 3 in the 70’s I guess I was referring to whether he should be in the HOF or not. There was talk of a fast track for him like Clemente got right after the crash .

@@FreeSportsCards-c8r first of all thank you for always replying I’ll go ahead and hit that subscribe button so UA-cam takes care of you for this. He was an 11 time All-Star , 3 Time Gold Glover and he sits at #7 for most home runs among catchers plus he made it into the HOF before his eligibility ran out and it had to go to the veterans committee whereas Simmons needed a second look . I do get that he came up in 75 so putting him in this group might be a stretch I probably would have let it slide if you didn’t tease it lol .
