Starting in his age 24 season, Bonds had more walks than strikeouts. In most cases it was almost a 2:1 ratio. So well before he was on ‘roids he was displaying a good eye.
@SportsSuperStar I'm still debating my list. Not easily to pick but Griffey Jr is certainly in CF and batting 3rd in the line up. Growing up in the 90s in Texas Being a long time Ranger fan I feel if people are going to select Piazza and say he was clean even though he admitted to taking PEDs before the were illegal I'm going to go with Pudge Rodriguez as my Catcher he still denies using PEDs and I find most claims that Jose Conseco had were to promote his book sales. Im trying to Balane Offense with Defense and you really cant find a catcher that was more respect behind the plate to try and steal bases on. And since I'm a Ranger Fan I'll likely go with Nolan Ryan as my Starting pitcher.
Solid list. Here’s mine (all players assumed to be in prime and playing clean)... LF - Rickey Henderson CF - Ken Griffey Jr. DH - Babe Ruth RF - Hank Aaron 1B - Albert Pujols C - Mike Piazza 3B - Alex Rodriguez SS - Cal Ripken Jr. 2B - Jackie Robinson P - Sandy Koufax Ted Williams and Barry Bonds almost made my LF but for leadoff there is none better than Rickey.
Henderson over Williams, wow really? Ricky has no place even close to being on the all time team. Pujols over Gehrig, Foxx and Greenberg, wow really? Gehrig has 1st base no question. How many times did Pujols have over 150 RBI's in a season? Don't think he ever did that. Gehrig did it pretty much every year and not just that, he did it batting behind Ruth who would have 140 every year. Figure that one out. Piazza over Bench hahahhahaha Piazza had a great bat but terrible defence. Bench had a great bat and was the best defensive catcher ever. Catcher along with shortstop, fielding is much more important that hitting. Bench had a cannon for an arm that was extremely accurate. He also had two MVP because of his bat as well. Piazza was terrible behind the plate. He couldn't throw out an offensive lineman. Sure his bat was great but a catcher is needed more for his glove and arm. If everyone on the other team could steal a base on you, your bat will no way make up for it. Griffey Jr. over Mays, Mantle, Cobb and shoeless Joe, probably the hardest position to choose. Ruth was actually a better fielder than Aaron having quite a bit more assists. Remember he was a pitcher and had a great arm. Alex Rodriguez at third, hahahhahahahahah he was a shortstop mainly, not a third basemen and was a roidboy. Cheater so he is out. Schmidt was the greatest all around third baseman ever. 8 home run titles, second only to Ruth and 10 gold gloves, second only to B. Robinson. Robinson over Hornsby at second. Hahhahaha nope. Hornsby has that spot no question. Hit over .400 3 times while hitting over 300 home runs. Highest batting average in a season, .424. Robinson was very good but Hornsby was amazing. Shortstop is pretty tough. Ripken had a very good bat but was just ok with the glove. Not sure if he won any gold gloves. Honus Wagner is a great shortstop both with the bat and the glove. Can't say Ripken shouldn't be there but can't say he should be either. As impossible as it is to choose only one pitcher, Koufax would be right there at the top no doubt. Walter Johnson, Bob Gibson, Steve Carlton, etc could also be there but Koufax would probably get the start. 2B - Hornsby - .356 lifetime hitter with over 300 home runs is a better lead off than Henderson. CF - Mays - Probably the best all around ball player in the history of the game. RF - Ruth - The name speaks for itself 1B - Gehrig - Ended up 3rd on the all time RBI list and only played in 14 seasons. Would have ended up with over 2,600 if he played 20 LF - Williams - Missed 3 or 4 seasons in his prime to go to war. Last man to hit .400 in a season and had a .344 lifetime avg. DH - Aaron - 755 lifetime home runs is no joke. Also a .300 lifetime avg. 3B - Schmidt - Most home runs in a season and a career by a third baseman while earning 3 MVP, 8 home run titles and 10 gold gloves SS - Wagner - Batted well over .300 for his career and also had a very solid glove in the field. C - Bench - Had a very good bat and excellent glove. A cannon for an arm. P - Koufax - There are so many great pitchers but Sandy was the nastiest. 4 no hitters tells us that.
@@Film-Watcher12 If I was anymore chilled I would need a parka. There is nothing to chill out about. I was completely calm. I was only calmly pointing out where his obviously bias opinion didn't exactly add up to the best players at their positions. The ones I used were not of my opinion but in fact, the best players at their positions to have ever played. I guess this was just a favorite player at each position and not a real list. Saying in a very calm way while also wearing my winter jacket so no need to chill out. Have a nice day.
This is what is so fascinating about our beloved game of baseball, it has such a rich history and great players that you could create a million different versions of this Dream Team Lineup. I couldn't disagree with any of your picks Marc, though I'd take Ryne Sandberg (Cano's bat is slightly better, but Sandberg's glovework was insane) at second. Here's my list.... First off, I know I don't have a "natural" center fielder (Rickey played CF at the beginning of his career but thereafter played mostly in LF). I tried to create a lineup that, for the most part, was not prone to striking out (keep the line moving but also have some pop). CF- Rickey Henderson (all-time stolen base king and career .401 OBP) RF- Tony Gwynn (career .338 hitter, will NOT strikeout) DH- Ted Williams (no explanation needed) 1B- Albert Pujols (Wanted Lou Gehrig, needed to break up the lefty bats) LF- Stan Musial (another lefty, career .331 hitter, with pop) 2B- Rogers Hornsby (the career numbers are staggering) 3B- Chipper Jones (criminally underrated, career .305 switch hitter w/ .930 OPS) C- Buster Posey (controversial pick, but career .302, some pop, keeps the line moving) SS- Ozzie Smith (lockdown glove in the team's most crucial defensive position) P- Curt Schilling Closer- Mariano Rivera (There can't be many who would disagree with this pick)
please bro He is probably the most influential athlete of all time tho, so you gotta give it to him. I would personally have someone like Roberto Alomar at 2B or something, but Jackie is a legend and he should always be remembered.
DiamondBack Enterprises yeah you’re right. I’d put him on the team. Even though I’m a dodgers fan i must recognize that he wasn’t the best physically though overall he was if you know what I mean
please bro Yeah. Jackie, Monte Irvin, Willie Mays, and Juan Marichal all helped sports as a whole cross the color barrier. Even though I would much rather have other players start than all of these guys (except maybe Mays), they all need to be observed as influential figures in the history of mankind for their actions that they took to bring American and International society and culture together.
1. When u we’re going over the lineups at the end u forgot to mention DH 2. You always say Mike Trout is possibly the best player of all time and he isn’t here 3. I expected to see Babe Ruth here
You should look at Stan Musial at LF or 1st base. He was very, very good. He had a career .331 BA with 475 home runs, 725 doubles and 177 triples. 3 time MVP and a .984 fielding.
Fun list, I went a bit more old school: SP: Walter Johnson 1)CF: Ty Cobb 2)RF: Tony Gwynn 3)LF: Babe Ruth 4)DH: Ted Williams 5)2B: Jackie Robinson 6)SS: Honus Wagner 7)1B: Lou Gehrig 8)3B: Mike Schmidt 9)C: Johnny Bench Yes, one of these things is not like the others, but I wanted consistenncy from my number 2 hitter, and Tony was an all-time great at that, plus I couldn't leave my boy Tony off my all-time lineup, so he's my fanboy concession.
@@eduhred5341 An all time great utility man, he can fill in for any OF spot, or at 1B, 2B or 3B, play it competently with 100% effort. He's on my All-Time roster for sure, just doesn't quite crack my All-Time starting line-up.
He needed a lefty and he was picking the most dominant not the best. Cano was very dominant on the yankees. More dominant than the guys that you mentioned.
Alomar? He is a switch hitter and he is WAY better than steroid-taking Canó. Heck, I could go out on a limb and say that Craig Counsell is better than Canó but I wouldn’t do that because we all know Counsell had the greatest stance ever. Lol.
3B: Pete Rose CF: Willie Mays RF: Mike Trout DH: Babe Ruth 1B: Albert Pujols LF: Ted Williams 2B: Rogers Hornsby C: Johnny Bench (Torn between him and Josh Gibson) SS: Derek Jeter P: Nolan Ryan CP: Mariano Rivera
@@spybro3264 I was debating it, but I am really high on Mike Trout. We obviously need to see how he puts this together over his whole career, but I think he is absolutely good enough to be the best CF of all time.
notstarboard I have do say Boggs is way over Schmidt, Average is .328 vs .267 in favor of Boggs. OBP .380 vs .415 again in favor of Boggs, Schmidt had a better OPS, .908 vs .858. Schmidt was a power hitter, Biggs hit more for average, he also had way more hits than Schmidt over 700 to be exact, Boggs also struck out way less Boggs struck out 745 times Schmidt, 1883.(for reference Boggs had 10740 plate appearances, Schmidt 10062)
i dont think its overyly hard. Albert and Mike dont belong in the list. great hitters yes. but defense wings games-championships. end of story. i feel he had those 2 of if not 3,4 players missing. but its an opionion and its all in good fun.
My all time post 2000’s team 1: CF, Mike Trout 2: LF, Ken Griffey JR 3: 1B, Albert Pujols 4: DH, Barry Bonds 5: 3B, Miguel Cabrera 6: SS, Alex Rodriguez 7: 2B, Derek Jeter 8: C, Yadier Molina 9: RF, Ichiro Suzuki SP, Clayton Kershaw RP, Aroldis Chapman CP, Mariano Rivera Coach, Terry Francona
Long Shot who do you put there instead? Yadi? You want a guy like Ichiro batting nine to give the top of the order a chance to move him around the bases
Great list,but how about Piazza or Ivan Rodriguez over Molina. Must say Molina is one of the best defensive catchers I've ever seen and his offense isn't too shabby either but I Rods offense is better and I think his defense is just as good as Molina.
BearsForLife F Ruth is the best nasty pitcher and even though he didn’t hit his first few years still was top 3 in homers and really was about average in the field during his prime
Current Day: SP: Jacob Degrom RP: Josh Hader C: JT Realmuto 1B: Freddie Freeman 2B: DJ LeMahieu 3B: Nolan Arenado SS: Francisco Lindor LF: Christian Yelich CF: Mike Trout RF: Mookie Betts DH: Nelson Cruz
Zack Haselius look at what JD has done the last 3 years tho... 2 seasons with 1000 plus OPS and last year was over 930. He’s one of the better pure and all around hitters in the game. Nelson is a good choice as well but I like JD more
P Edwin Jackson C in the Rye 1B Chris Davis 2B 2019 Josh Harrison 3B ?????????????? SS Minnesota Twins Legend Trevor Plouffe LF Nyjer Morgan CF Jacoby Ellsbury RF Joe West's Gut
Underrated player, and Imho, best player to ever live, Ty Cobb. He was a exception hitter, he had power, contact, speed, a vacuum of a glove, and a heck of an arm. Had a career batting average of .367, 117 homers, 892 stolen bases, a .946 OPS, and 1938 RBI’s. The dudes stats are stupid, but he just gets forgotten.

Mickey Mantel is the best player, that has ever played the game. He could do everything, he bat for power, he could bat for Percentage, he batted both ways, he could run even though he had to play with his legs wrap around, and could field.

Thanks for putting respect on Randy Johnson and Billy Wagner’s names. Wagner played when the Astros didn’t use trash cans, and Randy Johnson is the best lefty pitcher of all time hands down imo. Threw a perfect game when he was 40. Lol.
Brandon B you still have to hit the ball with cam banging too. Good batters should have solid guess at what pitch is coming anyway. And I’d rather see a team cheat for one WS than a guy cheat for most of his career and end up holding multiple MLB records because of it.
Brandon B I would still put Griffey Jr. in the outfield than Bonds. Griffey was a ridiculous fielder runner and hitter. Bonds was only that when he was with the Pirates. No one wants Pirates Barry Bonds everyone wants Giants Barry Bonds
Pretty good list Marc, I understand taking Piazza since he's your favorite player (it's hard for me to leave Ichiro off my list!). Pitcher: Sandy Koufax. Two-time World Series MVP, career 0.95 ERA in 7 World Series games. Plus he's a lefty so you get the advantage against righty hitters. Leadoff: 2B Eddie Collins. Really fast (his 741 stolen bases are 7th in MLB history) and he got on base quite a bit and was also decent defensively. While he had a couple bad series, he also had 3 different World Series where he hit over .400. 2: CF Mickey Mantle. While Mays is faster and a superior fielder, Mantle's World Series hitting numbers are way better than Mays' and he had five different World Series where he had an OPS over 1.000. 3. DH Babe Ruth. IMO the best to ever do it, plus a .326/.470/.744 slash line over 167 World Series plate appearances. 4. 1B Lou Gehrig. One of the best hitters of all time turned it up even more in the postseason where he averaged .361/.483/.731 over 150 plate appearances. In 1928 he turned in one of the best hitting performances ever when he hit .545/.706/1.727, as he was walked 6 times and in his 11 at-bats he collected 6 hits; 4 of them were home runs. 5. RF Hank Aaron. The former home run king also hit 624 doubles and still has the career marks for RBI and total bases. In 17 playoff games he had a .362/.405/.710 slash line. He's only in the 5 slot because I thought it would make more sense to put a right-handed bat in between three lefties. 6. LF Barry Bonds. Love him or hate him, he was an excellent defensive player for a lot of his career and always had great power numbers. While his postseason numbers vary he was amazing in 2002 and so that clinches the spot for me. 7. 3B George Brett. While Mike Schmidt is the better defensive player, I just can't get past him putting up a .050/.050/.050 slash line in the 1983 World Series. Even in Brett's bad WS performance he still slugged .407, and he has a career 1.023 OPS in the playoffs. 8. SS Alan Trammell. He was a good offensive player who was really great on defense, as you expect from a shortstop (which is why no Derek Jeter). Trammell performed super well in the Tigers' 1984 playoff run, where he won World Series MVP after hitting .450/.500/.800. 9. Johnny Bench. The greatest catcher of all time, a great defender and he won the World Series MVP in an admittedly lopsided sweep of the Yankees in 1976.

Noah Davis On pace* Albert Pujols was on pace to break the home run record, what’s your point? Plus, DiMaggio and Griffey were better defensively than Trout. You also got to add that in.
Michael Minin So True. Mike Trout isn’t better than Bonds, Griffey, Aaron, Mays or DiMaggio in my opinion. Hell he’s still debatable against Ruth as well.
Sean Roach he was still an unbelievable player in his career. He only used steroids towards the end of his career, but before that he was an unbelievable hitter. Steroids get you stronger, they don’t make you better at baseball
He played in a whites only league so it's kinda hard to see him getting in the lineup. The dude was playing in a league that was excluding some of the best talent in the world.
@@Jacobthekid28 So, did the pitchers in the Negro Leagues throw different pitches to the white players in the MLB? What you said is like saying Pele isn't that good cause he never played in Europe where all the best players were.

Clemente had pretty good power but right field is already taken by Babe Ruth. No question about that. How do you not include a .342 lifetime avg with 714 home runs and something like 2,200 RBI's? Answer, you can't, he is in. He alone who accounted for 288 runs in one 154 game season for his team. He either scored or knocked in the run. In 1921 Ruth had 170 RBI's and scored 177 runs. He hit 59 home runs, had 46 doubles and 16 triples giving him 121 extra base hits while batting I think .373. He almost did that year in and year out. Ruth, Gehrig and Hornsby are without a doubt on the all time team at their positions. Probably Schmidt at third as well.

In my opinion I would play Ozzie Smith at shortstop. You already have the greatest hitters of all time on the team to carry the offense so you need the greatest defensive shortstop of all time to help carry the defense.
Ricky henderson(lf) leads off, gets a hit steals second, barry bonds(rf) bats second, while they are intentionally walking him ricky steals third. After they walk bonds and runners are at the corners, i get anthony rizzo(1b), have him get hit by pitch or better yet a hit to score in ricky. I then have shohei ohtani(dh) do shohei ohtani stuff and clear the bases. Then lou brock(cf) bunts to get on base, steals second, have joe mauer(c) hit him to either third or home.

From 1986-2001, Barry Bonds 9805 plate appearances. He walked 1724 times of which 355 were intentional. He also struck out 1282 times. Ted Williams had 9788 plate appearances in his career. He walked 2021 times with 243 being intentional. He struck out just 709 times. A likely juiced Bonds hit 71 homers at age 36 in 2001, leading to getting an asinine number of intentional walks afterwards. Bonds had a tremendous eye, but it was not even in the same league as Williams. To claim he had the best eye in baseball history is naive.

Jackie? Really
Henderson over Williams, wow really? Ricky has no place even close to being on the all time team. Pujols over Gehrig, Foxx and Greenberg, wow really? Gehrig has 1st base no question. How many times did Pujols have over 150 RBI's in a season? Don't think he ever did that. Gehrig did it pretty much every year and not just that, he did it batting behind Ruth who would have 140 every year. Figure that one out. Piazza over Bench hahahhahaha Piazza had a great bat but terrible defence. Bench had a great bat and was the best defensive catcher ever. Catcher along with shortstop, fielding is much more important that hitting. Bench had a cannon for an arm that was extremely accurate. He also had two MVP because of his bat as well. Piazza was terrible behind the plate. He couldn't throw out an offensive lineman. Sure his bat was great but a catcher is needed more for his glove and arm. If everyone on the other team could steal a base on you, your bat will no way make up for it. Griffey Jr. over Mays, Mantle, Cobb and shoeless Joe, probably the hardest position to choose. Ruth was actually a better fielder than Aaron having quite a bit more assists. Remember he was a pitcher and had a great arm. Alex Rodriguez at third, hahahhahahahahah he was a shortstop mainly, not a third basemen and was a roidboy. Cheater so he is out. Schmidt was the greatest all around third baseman ever. 8 home run titles, second only to Ruth and 10 gold gloves, second only to B. Robinson. Robinson over Hornsby at second. Hahhahaha nope. Hornsby has that spot no question. Hit over .400 3 times while hitting over 300 home runs. Highest batting average in a season, .424. Robinson was very good but Hornsby was amazing. Shortstop is pretty tough. Ripken had a very good bat but was just ok with the glove. Not sure if he won any gold gloves. Honus Wagner is a great shortstop both with the bat and the glove. Can't say Ripken shouldn't be there but can't say he should be either. As impossible as it is to choose only one pitcher, Koufax would be right there at the top no doubt. Walter Johnson, Bob Gibson, Steve Carlton, etc could also be there but Koufax would probably get the start.
2B - Hornsby - .356 lifetime hitter with over 300 home runs is a better lead off than Henderson.
CF - Mays - Probably the best all around ball player in the history of the game.
RF - Ruth - The name speaks for itself
1B - Gehrig - Ended up 3rd on the all time RBI list and only played in 14 seasons. Would have ended up with over 2,600 if he played 20
LF - Williams - Missed 3 or 4 seasons in his prime to go to war. Last man to hit .400 in a season and had a .344 lifetime avg.
DH - Aaron - 755 lifetime home runs is no joke. Also a .300 lifetime avg.
3B - Schmidt - Most home runs in a season and a career by a third baseman while earning 3 MVP, 8 home run titles and 10 gold gloves
SS - Wagner - Batted well over .300 for his career and also had a very solid glove in the field.
C - Bench - Had a very good bat and excellent glove. A cannon for an arm.
P - Koufax - There are so many great pitchers but Sandy was the nastiest. 4 no hitters tells us that.

Yea, but why?? It wouldn't happen today.
He was a freaking pilot no less. His eyesight was better than 20/20.
Thank you. I can't take a baseball commentator seriously when he doesn't know that.
This is what is so fascinating about our beloved game of baseball, it has such a rich history and great players that you could create a million different versions of this Dream Team Lineup. I couldn't disagree with any of your picks Marc, though I'd take Ryne Sandberg (Cano's bat is slightly better, but Sandberg's glovework was insane) at second. Here's my list....
First off, I know I don't have a "natural" center fielder (Rickey played CF at the beginning of his career but thereafter played mostly in LF). I tried to create a lineup that, for the most part, was not prone to striking out (keep the line moving but also have some pop).
CF- Rickey Henderson (all-time stolen base king and career .401 OBP)
RF- Tony Gwynn (career .338 hitter, will NOT strikeout)
DH- Ted Williams (no explanation needed)
1B- Albert Pujols (Wanted Lou Gehrig, needed to break up the lefty bats)
LF- Stan Musial (another lefty, career .331 hitter, with pop)
2B- Rogers Hornsby (the career numbers are staggering)
3B- Chipper Jones (criminally underrated, career .305 switch hitter w/ .930 OPS)
C- Buster Posey (controversial pick, but career .302, some pop, keeps the line moving)
SS- Ozzie Smith (lockdown glove in the team's most crucial defensive position)
P- Curt Schilling
Closer- Mariano Rivera (There can't be many who would disagree with this pick)
P- Nolan Ryan
CP- Mariano Rivera
C- Johnny Bench
1B- Albert Puljos
2b- Jackie Robinson
SS- Derrick Jeter
3B- A-Roid
CF- Willie Mays
LF- Barry Bonds
RF- Ken Griffey Jr
DH- Babe Ruth
Nolan Ryan ruined this lineup 😣
Antonio he was the greatest starting pitcher of all time and had the most strikeouts of all time but it’s just my opinion
Hello There A-Roid 😂
That’s exactly my lineup😂. Good job 👏

Lee Orders Jackie is great but not the best in history
please bro He is probably the most influential athlete of all time tho, so you gotta give it to him. I would personally have someone like Roberto Alomar at 2B or something, but Jackie is a legend and he should always be remembered.
DiamondBack Enterprises yeah you’re right. I’d put him on the team. Even though I’m a dodgers fan i must recognize that he wasn’t the best physically though overall he was if you know what I mean
please bro Yeah. Jackie, Monte Irvin, Willie Mays, and Juan Marichal all helped sports as a whole cross the color barrier. Even though I would much rather have other players start than all of these guys (except maybe Mays), they all need to be observed as influential figures in the history of mankind for their actions that they took to bring American and International society and culture together.
DiamondBack Enterprises damn bro you hit it on the dot 👐🙌
1. When u we’re going over the lineups at the end u forgot to mention DH
2. You always say Mike Trout is possibly the best player of all time and he isn’t here
3. I expected to see Babe Ruth here
SalehMan beast but he is current
So is pujols and cano
@@pugmaster8360 so is Pujols and I think Cano.
SalehMan beast he also said ROBINSON FUCKING CANO instead of all time greats like Hornsby, Alomar, sandberg, carew, Morgan, Jackie Robinson
Roar E that’s so true they’re better than Cano he had bad numbers the last 2 or 3 years
You should look at Stan Musial at LF or 1st base. He was very, very good. He had a career .331 BA with 475 home runs, 725 doubles and 177 triples. 3 time MVP and a .984 fielding.
A career .984 fielder in the outfield isn’t the best. But Stan is definitely an honorable mention or maybe bench.
Musial could also DH or play right field
Musial is insanely underrated

Yes, one of these things is not like the others, but I wanted consistenncy from my number 2 hitter, and Tony was an all-time great at that, plus I couldn't leave my boy Tony off my all-time lineup, so he's my fanboy concession.
Wow love your list. My only two changes would be Al Kaline in RF and Roger Hornsby at 2nd
Good list but what about all time hit leader Pete Rose?
@@eduhred5341 An all time great utility man, he can fill in for any OF spot, or at 1B, 2B or 3B, play it competently with 100% effort. He's on my All-Time roster for sure, just doesn't quite crack my All-Time starting line-up.
The Mets bias is getting too far at this point, you have Jackie Robinson, Hornsby, and Joe Morgan at 2nd base and decided to pick Cano? Wtf?
UA-cam Police Yeah your right
He needed a lefty and he was picking the most dominant not the best. Cano was very dominant on the yankees. More dominant than the guys that you mentioned.
Alomar? He is a switch hitter and he is WAY better than steroid-taking Canó. Heck, I could go out on a limb and say that Craig Counsell is better than Canó but I wouldn’t do that because we all know Counsell had the greatest stance ever. Lol.

@@davyt0247 I'm actually a Sox fan, so I love Boggs, but idk if he's quite on Schmidt's level.
notstarboard I have do say Boggs is way over Schmidt, Average is .328 vs .267 in favor of Boggs. OBP .380 vs .415 again in favor of Boggs, Schmidt had a better OPS, .908 vs .858. Schmidt was a power hitter, Biggs hit more for average, he also had way more hits than Schmidt over 700 to be exact, Boggs also struck out way less Boggs struck out 745 times Schmidt, 1883.(for reference Boggs had 10740 plate appearances, Schmidt 10062)

How can you put Mickey Mantle in your lineup before one of the greatest player of all time in Babe Ruth. Also a quick mention to Hank Aaron.
We can't even say for sure how Babe Ruth would play today. The pitching and hitting is very different from when he played and it is a big stretch to call him the greatest player of all time.
Late but mickey was a amazing player who could make outfield plays
@@mr.shells685 I think on this hypothetical team the players skill would be adjusted to todays baseball, because obviously players like Ruth wouldn’t be able to hit aroldis Chapman throwing 100+ when 90mph was almost unheard of back then
Mickey Mantel is the best player, that has ever played the game. He could do everything, he bat for power, he could bat for Percentage, he batted both ways, he could run even though he had to play with his legs wrap around, and could field. Absolutely incredible player. I believe the only one capable to surpass him is Mike Trout.

Ann art Greatest Left Handed Closer of All Time
No Wade Boggs?
Nobody:
Literally nobody:
Marc: Mentions everyone that took steroids but thinks we forgot Bonds did. :(
Leo Cataldo better than trash can banging you still have to hit the ball with steriods but with can banging you know what’s coming
Brandon B you still have to hit the ball with cam banging too. Good batters should have solid guess at what pitch is coming anyway. And I’d rather see a team cheat for one WS than a guy cheat for most of his career and end up holding multiple MLB records because of it.
Brandon B I would still put Griffey Jr. in the outfield than Bonds. Griffey was a ridiculous fielder runner and hitter. Bonds was only that when he was with the Pirates. No one wants Pirates Barry Bonds everyone wants Giants Barry Bonds
Fun Xerio uhhh I think that 1000 career ops makes up for it and having willie in center with incredible range makes up for it
Valon Adili Yeah. Kenny is just one of my favorite players. I have extreme bias
Pretty good list Marc, I understand taking Piazza since he's your favorite player (it's hard for me to leave Ichiro off my list!).
Pitcher: Sandy Koufax. Two-time World Series MVP, career 0.95 ERA in 7 World Series games. Plus he's a lefty so you get the advantage against righty hitters.
Leadoff: 2B Eddie Collins. Really fast (his 741 stolen bases are 7th in MLB history) and he got on base quite a bit and was also decent defensively. While he had a couple bad series, he also had 3 different World Series where he hit over .400.
2: CF Mickey Mantle. While Mays is faster and a superior fielder, Mantle's World Series hitting numbers are way better than Mays' and he had five different World Series where he had an OPS over 1.000.
3. DH Babe Ruth. IMO the best to ever do it, plus a .326/.470/.744 slash line over 167 World Series plate appearances.
4. 1B Lou Gehrig. One of the best hitters of all time turned it up even more in the postseason where he averaged .361/.483/.731 over 150 plate appearances. In 1928 he turned in one of the best hitting performances ever when he hit .545/.706/1.727, as he was walked 6 times and in his 11 at-bats he collected 6 hits; 4 of them were home runs.
5. RF Hank Aaron. The former home run king also hit 624 doubles and still has the career marks for RBI and total bases. In 17 playoff games he had a .362/.405/.710 slash line. He's only in the 5 slot because I thought it would make more sense to put a right-handed bat in between three lefties.
6. LF Barry Bonds. Love him or hate him, he was an excellent defensive player for a lot of his career and always had great power numbers. While his postseason numbers vary he was amazing in 2002 and so that clinches the spot for me.
7. 3B George Brett. While Mike Schmidt is the better defensive player, I just can't get past him putting up a .050/.050/.050 slash line in the 1983 World Series. Even in Brett's bad WS performance he still slugged .407, and he has a career 1.023 OPS in the playoffs.
8. SS Alan Trammell. He was a good offensive player who was really great on defense, as you expect from a shortstop (which is why no Derek Jeter). Trammell performed super well in the Tigers' 1984 playoff run, where he won World Series MVP after hitting .450/.500/.800.
9. Johnny Bench. The greatest catcher of all time, a great defender and he won the World Series MVP in an admittedly lopsided sweep of the Yankees in 1976.
Probably better than Marc’s
Leaving Willie Mays off a best player list is just wrong.

Mark can you play some MLB The Show 20 gameplay please. I really want to see some
It provides good content for a while too
He doesn’t play it anymore
Really
Yea
Rip
Image not putting babe Ruth in the lineup 🤦♀️
Darkshark 744 we haven’t seen him is the only thing
He played in a whites only league so it's kinda hard to see him getting in the lineup. The dude was playing in a league that was excluding some of the best talent in the world.
@@Jacobthekid28 So, did the pitchers in the Negro Leagues throw different pitches to the white players in the MLB? What you said is like saying Pele isn't that good cause he never played in Europe where all the best players were.
@@gordonmorton7551 I'm sorry but the game has been since 1947 and always will be about the best talent in the world not just the best white talent in the world. The league should always be about the best talent regardless of race, ethnicity, or religion. That is the beauty of baseball and sports as a whole.
@@gordonmorton7551 I hate it when people think that I'm crazy just because I don't think that the Bambino was the best player of all time.

P: Nolan Ryan
Closer: Mariano Rivera
CF: Ty Cobb
RF: Babe Ruth
LF: Ken Griffey Jr

1B: Frank Thomas
3B: Chipper Jones
C: Johnny Bench
SS: Honus Wagner
2B: Jackie Robinson
ElGregorio55 Nolan Ryan is nowhere near the best pitcher
This is a list I can actually get behind
I would put Roberto Clemente as the RF.
Right field is a power spot witch he wouldn’t provide
@@I-am-Logan at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter, as long as you have a good spread of contact power defense and speed in your lineup.
Clemente had pretty good power but right field is already taken by Babe Ruth. No question about that. How do you not include a .342 lifetime avg with 714 home runs and something like 2,200 RBI's? Answer, you can't, he is in. He alone who accounted for 288 runs in one 154 game season for his team. He either scored or knocked in the run. In 1921 Ruth had 170 RBI's and scored 177 runs. He hit 59 home runs, had 46 doubles and 16 triples giving him 121 extra base hits while batting I think .373. He almost did that year in and year out. Ruth, Gehrig and Hornsby are without a doubt on the all time team at their positions. Probably Schmidt at third as well.
Ruth has right field locked up no question about it. Also there was this guy called Aaron who played in right.
Hank Aaron, and Babe Ruth are better sadly. I like Clemente, but he just isn’t better than those two.

No the dream team should be the 2020 Mets lol 😂
No the 2020 Orioles with Jose Iggleasies as the team's best (aside from Mancini) player hitting 220
Rod Carew has to be one of the most underrated players of all time
ya i have him at 2b for me in my all time lineup
And frank robinson mike Schmidt tris speaker Eddie plank Rogers Hornsby
Because he didn't homeruns but he won 7 batting titles 388 on year. 328 lifetime .that's more then any player living
The problem is that Barry Bonds head takes up both the 3rd and 4th spot in the lineup

Can’t believe he picked Canó over Jackie Robinson who is one of the best to ever play
You know these kids today are sticking with their roid roid roided up cheaters. Sad!
Robbie Alomar is ahead of both of them and should be on this list.
@@hennylo68 Rogers Hornsby is the GOAT @ 2b.
In my opinion I would play Ozzie Smith at shortstop. You already have the greatest hitters of all time on the team to carry the offense so you need the greatest defensive shortstop of all time to help carry the defense.
James Earl Jones child Andrelton Simmons is better
@@jnlsportsnewsandupdatesjsn5614what about honus wagner?
@@jnlsportsnewsandupdatesjsn5614 most casual take i ever heard
Ozzie Smith was amazing at defense, but a pretty mediocre hitter. I would take Cal Ripken over him.
Ricky henderson(lf) leads off, gets a hit steals second, barry bonds(rf) bats second, while they are intentionally walking him ricky steals third. After they walk bonds and runners are at the corners, i get anthony rizzo(1b), have him get hit by pitch or better yet a hit to score in ricky. I then have shohei ohtani(dh) do shohei ohtani stuff and clear the bases. Then lou brock(cf) bunts to get on base, steals second, have joe mauer(c) hit him to either third or home. I then have jackie robinson(2b), honus wagner(ss), and chipper jones(3b) finish it off. And ofcourse my starting pitcher is randy johnson with rollie fingers closing it out.

Excellent list. Only change I would make is putting Hank Aaron at DH.
*Does Marc respond though???*
MLB NATION nah don’t think
Fuzzy does tho
Saying Barry Bonds is better than Babe Ruth is saying it is easier to screw in a nail than to screw a screw
can you do a “top 20 mlb teams of all time” like 75 reds and just crazy good teams
I'd take the 98 Yankees over the 75 Reds, even though they were a top five team all time.
Gordon Morton nah, 75 reds over 98 Yankees any day. There called the big red machine for a reason.

Stan Musial= most underrated player of ALL TIME. do the research
Yeah we’re is Stan the man?
Hank Aaron is up there too
Marc: Willie Mays is the best centerfield of all time
Mike trout: not for long
Trout will never even pass Griffey.
@@hennylo68 He's already better than Griffey ever was.
@@williamkoscielniak820 Yeah lol what a joke. You're a real funny dude.
@@hennylo68 It's amazing how so many are caught up "in the moment" and don't even think before typing some of this stuff Trout still has a ways to even catch up with Mantle and Mays let alone Griffey..as of now He's still behind Cobb, Nothing against Trout, He's a top 10 CFer but He's not caught up with any of these greats just yet.
@@pycellesbeard9728 Yeah Trout stans really need to stop it. I mean he's great and one day will be in the conversation with these greats, but he isn't up there yet.
From 1986-2001, Barry Bonds 9805 plate appearances. He walked 1724 times of which 355 were intentional. He also struck out 1282 times. Ted Williams had 9788 plate appearances in his career. He walked 2021 times with 243 being intentional. He struck out just 709 times.
A likely juiced Bonds hit 71 homers at age 36 in 2001, leading to getting an asinine number of intentional walks afterwards. Bonds had a tremendous eye, but it was not even in the same league as Williams. To claim he had the best eye in baseball history is naive.
Truly
Agreed. It is really sad how people forget about Williams a lot.

One problem I got with this, every player used Steroids
How ?
During steroid era pretty much but not in the time of like Ted williams
Yeah and that doesn’t miraculously make you a good player if you and I took roids we would still suck lmao
No way did Ted Williams take Steroids.
George Brett = Most underrated player ever
Dude, George Brett is legendary
How do you leave off the greatest player of all time?? The Great Bambino would be rolling over in his grave.
Probably so he can add PED user Barry Bonds on the list. That’s what I’m guessing.
No he wouldn’t. He’s to fat
