    35th Greatest Player

    Congratulations to 19th Century 1Bman Dan Brouthers for winning the 34th round of our Greatest Player series! He scored 33 points, including 3 first places from our 22 voters.

    Dan beat out Roberto Clemente, who scored 26 points with 5 1st place votes.

    But the scoring is what I feared. There were 6-7 players who bunched support right after that. Our consensus is breakind down. It will take some skillful bandwagon meisters to break free of the pursuing pack from here on in.

    So, prepare your best cases. They will need them.

    The 35th round for Greatest Player series is now open.

    1. Babe Ruth
    2. Ty Cobb
    3. Willie Mays
    4. Honus Wagner
    5. Ted Williams
    6. Hank Aaron
    7. Mickey Mantle

    As per our usual, please consider everything. Counting totals, rate stats, relative stats, peak, longevity, special skills, awards/opinions, intangibles, team support/lack of support, special circumstances, time missed for war/injuries, etc.

    We are now ONLY voting for the 35th Greatest. Please continue to submit your ballots with your Top 5 next players. As the winner of Round 34, Dan Brouthers is now eliminated from our further consideration. Negro Leaguers are eligible for this poll. Or if one prefers, one can simply insert them where they suspect they might have earned, with clear indications that you only wish to 'shadow-rank' them, and they will then NOT be counted.

    Relative SLG. Ave. is the 1st number, and serves as presumption unless I note mitigating factors. 1. Babe Ruth - 172.5 - 13 SLG. titles - 10,504 PA - 207 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 303. Need I say more? Nuff said. 2. Ted Williams - 154.9 - 9 SLG. titles - 9786 PA - 185 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 220. Takes 2nd nicely. Missing war yrs.? Offset by Babe's "missing pitching yrs." 3. Ty Cobb - 141.4 - 8 SLG. titles - 12,777 PA- 167 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 159. Ranks above others with higher SLG. AVE., due to more titles, over a much longer career, higher PA, extended decline phase. Differences in PA with Hornsby equals 7 full seasons of decline. 4. Rogers Hornsby - 147.3. - 9 titles - 9259 PA - 175 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 203. High SLG. Ave./titles earn high ranking. 5. Lou Gehrig - 154.0 - 2 SLG. titles - 9954 PA - 179 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 230. Ave. held up well, of course due to lack of decline phase, hence low PA. Only won 2 titles. 6. Barry Bonds - 148.4 - 7 SLG. titles - 12,606 PA - 182 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 213. I had him ranked 2nd, but his admitted steroid usage drops him IMHO. Had too great an advantage over his peers. 7. Mickey Mantle - 143.8 - 4 SLG. titles - 9895 PA - 172 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 198. Too few titles over relatively weak sluggers. 8. Hank Aaron - 140.6 - 4 SLG. titles - 13,919 PA - 155 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 187. Too few titles over long career. 9. Willie Mays - 139.2 - 5 SLG. titles - 12,480 PA - 156 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 186. 10. Jimmy Foxx - 143.7 - 5 SLG. titles - 9,599 PA - 163 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 214. Too few PA relative to Aaron/Mays 11. Joe Jackson - 1.45.2 - 1 SLG. title - 5690 PA - 170 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 187. Too few PA to rank higher - Placed in top 5 SLG. all his 9 yrs.; 2nd 3 times, once 3rd, 2 4ths, 2 5ths. 12. Honus Wagner - 132.9 - 6 SLG. Titles - 11,731 PA - 150 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 167 13. Stan Musial- 137.1 - 6 SLG. Titles - 12,712 PA - 159 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 168. 14. Tris Speaker - 134.3 - 1 SLG. Title - 11,988 PA - 158 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 163. 15. Nap Lajoie - 133.9 - 4 SLG. Titles - 10,460 PA - 150 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 159 16. Mike Schmidt - 133.6 - 5 SLG. Titles - 10, 062 PA - 147 OPS+ - Rel. ISO - 205. Sluggers such as Greenberg, McGwire, DiMaggio, Mize and Brouthers all had PA fewer than 7,700.

    All-Time list for OPS+ (baseball-Reference) http://www.baseball-reference.com/le...s_career.shtml Relative Stats Chart: http://baseball-fever.com/showpost.p...&postcount=161 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Courtesy of David Kent. Here is a list of the top 100 sluggers of all time based on relative isolated power (min 5000 AB). The values are league adjusted but not park adjusted. (NB: If someone has park factor values for average and slugging, I would love to see it.) Pre-1920 players are high-lighted in red, to show the difficulty of posting a high Rel. ISO due to era. Only 14 of the Top 100 (14%). Gavvy Cravath/Joe Jackson were eliminated due to less than 5,000 At-Bats.

    --Because I can only love 5 men at a time. Seriously, Cochrane is next on my catcher list and I have him way ahead of the last catcher we elected. I am a big Greenberg fan, but he doesn't really stand out from several other1B's available. Why Greenberg over Mize or Thomas or McCovey? I'd rather have Anson, with his uniquely epic career in the 19th century, than pull Greenberg out of the pack of slugging 1B's that he fits in with.

    --As long as we're talking, why Yount over Ripken?
    I must not have seen your question, Mark.

    He did enough in his 9+ year peak to prove to me he belongs at this level. 170 OPS+ over 9 seasons, with one full season essentially lost to WW1. Despite playing in the same league as Cobb and Speaker - and later Sisler and Ruth - he finished in the top 5 in OPS+ every season from 1911 to 1920 (other than 1918), and finished 2nd 3 times.

    I also think - given his batting style and power and how well he hit in 1920 - that he'd have been very likely to be able to continue to rank among the best hitters in the AL through his early 30's.

    And even with his career over at age 30, he still recorded 294 Win Shares. With credit for his lost year to WW1, that would put him at roughly 310-315 for his career. Even assuming that 1920 would be his last great year, and he would have declined starting the very next year if he'd been allowed to stay in baseball, you're still looking at probably a 375-400 Win Share career, to go along with a great peak. And that's being extremely conservative, IMO.

    So if I was ranking them just on career value, he'd be no where near this spot. But that's just one of the things I look at, and in cases like his, his career value is pretty useless for the purposes of evaluating his greatness.

    Yount over Ripken...subjectively I think Yount was just a better player than Ripken during his peak. For me, Ripken never reached the level of greatness than early 80's/pre-injury Yount did, so I have Ripken about 5-7 spots lower than Yount. But since Yount was my favorite player growing up, I'm probably overrating him somewhat.

  11. Greenberg
    Cap Anson
    Ken Griffey, Jr.
    Cochrane
    Kaline

    up next Piazza, Yount and McCovey
    then Reggie, Pujols, Crawford, Mize, Ripken and Dickey
    or something like that

    I'm a little surprised Brouthers went first of the three 19th century 1B Anson usually comes out ahead with Connor in third.

    --Are you saying that you are giving Jackson credit for what he might have done had he not been banned then, or am I misunderstanding? I can see ignoring Jackson's baggage in these polls, but not for giving him any sort of speculative bonus for years lost due to being involved in fixing a World Series.

    --As long as we're talking, why Yount over Ripken?
    Personally, I see JJ's career as being most similar to Greenberg, Mize, or Dick Allen's (if we don't give Greenberg or Mize any war credit time).
    Mize and Greenberg are good picks now, but they project to 1900-2100 games with war credit, and they lost the time from their peaks.

    Joe Jackson would have needed about 4-5 "freebee" years to bring him to about that range. He did however put up 3 straight 190 OPS+'s when that was very rare. His 170 might be better than Greenberg or Mize's 158.

    If he gets 4 freebee years added on to the end, he could go around here. If not, then he takes quite a tumble.

  15. I need to see cases for Ripken versus Yount.

    One issue I have with Ripken was that while he was a good fielder, and relatively good hitter for a shortstop, he wasn't a good baserunner for a shortstop. If he had a 114 OPS+ and an average SS is 85, he is looking good in relation, but when baserunning is included, he is not as good a relative offensive producer. He was pretty much a station to station runner.

    Yount could run. Ripken moved to third and played OK. Yount moved to CF and played gold glove caliber defense.


    and Reggie Jackson versus Al Kaline.

    I at least convinced myself that Kaline matches up pretty well with Reggie even when we look at prime seasons, as a hitter. He's not as good, but if he's a top 5 right fielder, I think he has an edge. They each had 10 140 OPS+ seasons, and Kaline is ahead, outside of those 10 top seasons. If Reggie had posted say 4 years of 170+, then it might make a difference.

    The issue is that you have Ripken and Reggie 1 and 2, and I have Kaline and Yount 1 and 2. Those are going to be the guys for whom we tend to split votes on.

    --My problem with Kaline is his lack of in-season durabilty. Yount was certainly a better baserunner than Ripken. That isn't even argueable. The position change arguement is a little weak though. Ripken moved at the end of his career. Yount moved in the middle. Ripken can not be considered anything othert than a career shortstop and a very good one, while Yount is more of a hybrid player - half infield and half outfield.

  17. Doesn't Kaline come out by all the metrics as being a world class RF whereas Reggie is lucky if he finished in the positive numbers and if so only because he got to DH. That's what puts Kaline at the head of the remaining RFs on my list. But hose two along with Crawford and then throw in Gwynn, Clemente and Waner make for quite a a mess, and really Dewey Evans must be in that neighborhood as well.

    No, I'm just acknowledging that his total career value is not completely representative of his greatness as a player. Just as I would when evaluating someone like Koufax or Sisler or Youngs or Gehrig or Grove or Clemente.

    that also includes

    Kaline played 2460 out of 2852 for 18 consecutive years (86.3%), or 139.7 per 162 team games.

    Reggie played 2538 out of 2861 (88.7%) or 143.7 per 162 team games for 18 consecutive years.

    In the table, I have boosted pre-'61 seasons to 162, and also boosted 1972 and 1981

    --I'd be willing to ballot swap on guys to close to election and give them a better chance, rather than see guys who are WAY off my chart take advantage of split ballots by likeminded voters. So Ripken/Kaline or Reggie/Yount? Which way yields the highest quality ranking? Or are we doomed to see cult favorites top the list going forward due to lack of agreement?

    Al Kaline
    Reggie Jackson
    Robin Yount
    Cal Ripken
    John Mize

    next up: Mike Piazza

    I had Kaline 39th last time, I've moved him up for two reasons

    1) After looking at the stats, Kaline is indeed slightly superior to Jackson
    2) I'm trying to stock up Kaline's points so he overtakes Roberto "The Overrated" Clemente

  22. I probably was wrong to have Ripken out of my top 5.

    Reggie had a 151 OPS+ for about a 2100 game stretch.
    Ripken had 118 from '82 on in about 2100 games mostly at short.
    Reggie ran better. Cal was a better fielder, but the OPS+ difference outweighs the position, particularly because Ripken did not run well for a SS.

    On the other hand, Ripken had a 96 OPS+ in his final 500+ games at third. Not great, but valuable.
    Reggie was 102 as a DH for his last 800.

    They are close. As is Yount, as is Kaline.

    There are some contenders out there, but Kaline, Reggie, Robin and Cal I just think had 4 supremely excellent CAREERS of 20+ years. They had primes, and they put up value in their declining years. WE have to assume that a guy like Clemente would have had a decline like one of them to get him into that company.

    MY VOTE
    35) Kaline
    36) Reggie Jackson
    37) Robin Yount
    38) Cal Ripken
    39) Johnny Mize (still gets to about 2300 games with a 160 OPS+ if no war).

    Piazza next.

    Brett I think Ripken and Yount are extremely but I would take Ripken a little over Yount. Yount probably is a little better as an offensive player because of his baserunning but only a little bit. Their OPS+ are 115 for Yount, 112 for Ripken. Ripken though played about 800 more games at SS than Yount, Yount played almost as much at CF as SS. BP's metrics and DWS also have Ripken a better SS than Yount. I see it as Ripken's playing SS more than Yount vs. Yount's edge in baserunning, what really puts Ripken ahead for me is that he was giving the straight full 162 games for every season, while Yount would miss games here and there. It's not like Yount wasn't durable, but "The Streak", while overrated, does mean something in terms of Ripken's in season durability.

    You might also want to consider Willie McCovey. He has 2300 games with OPS+ 153, and played in what I think were stronger leagues than Mize. He usually doesn't come out as quite the fielder that Mize was, but I think with his unreal 1969 season his peak is a little higher

    My ballot:

    1. Cal Ripken
    2. Robin Yount
    3. Reggie Jackson
    4. Mike Piazza
    5. Willie McCovey

    I at least convinced myself that Kaline matches up pretty well with Reggie even when we look at prime seasons, as a hitter. He's not as good, but if he's a top 5 right fielder, I think he has an edge. They each had 10 140 OPS+ seasons, and Kaline is ahead, outside of those 10 top seasons. If Reggie had posted say 4 years of 170+, then it might make a difference.
    .
    A difference to me is that Jackson played when the AL was well integrated and just about fully integrated for most of his career. In the 50s many AL teams still had not integrated and well into the 60s many teams had just integrated and still weren't open to signing black players. Reggie was one of the first great career AL black players. I think Reggie deserves a little more credit on those OPS+ numbers.

    This is an actual case of the truth.
