each person nominate a guy that you think is one of the greatest handful of players ever. these should be quite obvious and need no debate. after all the Top guys are gone, we'll go to Tier 2 and so on down the list. these guys should be ones that would make the 25 man roster of the All-Time MLB team.

if someone is nominated that you think is NOT a Top guy, debate it out.

i'll nominate:

Ted Williams

Manny Ramirez. One of the nastiest hitters of all time. And we must not forget one of if not the the greatest post season hitter of all time.

career season averages. .314 41 HR 133 RBI

I think there might be 2 or 3 other players that have better career average season stats.
