Did you know that The Rose Committee recognizes Joltin' Joe to be
among the top three baseball players of all time? It's true!
1. Pete Rose.
2. Joe DiMaggio.
3. Hank Aaron.
They were all better than Willie Mays?
The Giants led the NL in road attendance for fifteen years in a row. Then
they traded Willie Mays to the Mets. The next year the Mets led the NL in
road attendance. Willie Mays was the greatest five tool player of any era.
They do not recognize Willie Mays?
Brock, Mantle, Brett, Fisk, Bench, Munson, Gehrig, and Henderson in no
particular order to name a few.
Munson????!!??!!
Brock ?????????????
Is there an echo? Odds are your a kid.

I can't swear that Ron is not a kid. His posts lead me to believe
otherwise. But if he is a kid, he's a damned smart one!
> Is there an echo?
No. With an echo you get fewer question marks not more.
I suppose I could have phrased it that anybody who ranks Brock
among the game's elite know nothing of the history of the
game -- he doesn't do too badly in career value among LF
but he isn't on radar in peak and the test of greatness is
doing well in both areas. (Though I don't see how you
can argue for greatness without doing very well on the
peak test, I'm willing to discuss only career value
and Brock's consistency serves him well here)
More specifically anybody who lists Brock ahead of Musial
or Wagner or ... well it's a long list of players easily
better that Brock -- who's on the short list for weakest
HOF selection by the BBWAA.
> Odds are your a kid.
Could be. But my posting history does go back to 1994.
(Old enough to remember Ira Blum's spelling flame for
one thing. Not to mention my own time machine post)
>

Well most of the people who've met me have now migrated to Primer,
but Dan Szymborski does sometimes lurk.
I'm old enough to have memories of watching the 1965 World
Series on newsreels. My earliest clear baseball memory,
though I didn't really start to follow the game until 1969.

I'd think Herb Pennock and Catfish Hunter and possibly Red Ruffing
(Sutton's clearly the better pitcher. Once you throw in Ruffing's
bat though ... well I'd still rather have Sutton) are weaker choices
by the witers.
A few years back Dale Stephenson compared the weakest writer's
picks with the best VC picks
BBWAA VC
C Campanella * Lombardi
1B Sisler Mize
2B Frisch Herman
3B Traynor Baker
SS Maranville Vaughan
LF Brock Wheat or Goslin
CF Puckett Roush
RF Keeler Crawford
P Pennock Newhouser
* There's no obvious choice here. Feel free to substitute Carter or
Fisk
or ...I think I could be persuaded to go with Dickey or Fisk.
Obviously none of them are mistakes.
Keeler's the easiest to explain. At the time he was voted
in 19th century record keeping was in shambles. The writers
simply thought he was better than he turned out to be.
(To give you some idea of how bad it was, at one point Cap
Anson was widely believed to have over 4,000 hits. A truly
significant error)
And he's not a *bad* player. He'd be a typical VC pick.
Maranville almost certainly got in because of his personal
popularity, but he was a truly great glove man. Did
not adapt well to the new offensive conditions and still
lasted quite some time. Only HOFer I can think of
to spend extensive time in the minors in the middle
of his career.
Obviously you can justify Traynor (though I think
Stan hack is the better player) because there's the huge
gap between Baker and Mathews without him. Not
a HOF case I care for, but I do understand the argument.
So then you are a kid. By 1965, I had already watched the Yankees
win 4 World Series, and lose 4.

Found Ira's. And even better (considering the context) it's a grammar
flame
with spelling mistakes -- and other mistakes missed.
Note Dave Tate's response. One of the first regulars to bail on RSB.
Sigh.
Can't find mine, but a typo in the date left an opening for some
yuks at my expense.
I've met Ron. Ron is ridiculously knowledgeable. Much better nails
than mine, too!
The damnable praise has never been so faint.

There is no committee. Just a pimp for Pete the Fixer
who has already admitted that he did bet on the Reds
which is by definition grounds for a lifetime ban. It's
only a matter of time before he admits he bet against
the Reds.
When Rose dies, he can play on a team with Chick Gandil
and Swede Risberg.
