      Interesting. Both pitchers and both obviously very good, but very . . . what, styles?

        Griffey would be my second choice for all time favorites.

          All time: Kirby Puckett. Griffey and Sandberg are close seconds. I had a Kirby poster on my wall as a kid that’s framed in my basement now.

            So...he's walking in a circle?

              All-Time: Griffey Jr.
              Active: I have no idea


              But really they pale in comparison to Puckett, Radke, Cuddyer, Punto, Neshek, and and some other short listers. As in, if Puckett was a 100, Griffey Jr. would be about a 15 or 20. The next would be probably in the single digits. I suppose Maddux would be second. But he rates lower because of how much I liked Radke.

              I went through a list of the top 100 actives and couldn't find a guy on there I thought would be on my list.

                  See, that's the thing. I don't think that's true. I'll listen or watch other teams during the season if it's a decent game. I just don't like other teams players for the most part.

                    I'll revise mine.

                    Current:
                    Kershaw (played for my hometown low-A club)
                    Syndergaard (his changeup hits 92. His CHANGEUP.)
                    Ichiro (a walking meme)

                    All-time:
                    Frank Thomas (unstoppable on MLB Triple Play 96 on Genesis...turn the camera from hitter cam to overhead cam, if he makes contact it's a 450-foot moonshot to left, end of story)
                    Kenny Lofton (miss those 90's Indians teams that couldn't quite win it all)
                    Rickey Henderson (what can I say, I like speedy leadoff guys that make it rain bases and give opposing managers night sweats)
                    Vince Coleman (best nickname ever, Vincent Van Go, plus LOL tarp machine)
                    Ozzie Smith (legendary glove)
                    Ken Griffey Jr. (sure, throw him on there)

                      Mantle was something to behold before his knee injury--at the plate or in the field. Like Orr in that regard, though more like Hull in his sheer physicality and Hollywood good looks. And so loved that Maris really did not stand a chance of being appreciated as much as he deserved.

                        That means that Mantle basically had half a season at the major league level.

                                Before its effect really started to slow him down. I don't know his post injury medical history (the drain tile thing), but he was hobbled, not just by the alcoholism.
