Ranking Top 25 MLB Players of All Time

trying to study for mid terms and marc has to drop an absolute banger smh

Would love to see you do an actual 26 man roster of the best players of all time with a starting 9, bench, starting 5, and bullpen

Fun fact: Stan Musial has the same number of hits at home and on the road - 1815 each. The definition of pure consistency.

Leaving Nolan Ryan off this list is criminal he had over 5700 strikeouts 7 no hitters and the man literally has the record for holding the most records

“That is why Brandon Nimmo is the best player of all time “

I had the honor of meeting Mr. Robinson just a few years before he had passed. My high school baseball team's gear had been stolen. Frank had heard about it in the news and came to our field to donate what had to have been thousands of dollars worth of equipment. I'll never forget that day and how privileged I was to meet him.

How do you leave out Cy Young? Most wins, most innings pitched, and most complete games in history. And those records will never fall! Plus the best pitcher award is named after him. A case for him being the greatest pitcher ever could be made and ... where is he?!

I'm surprised Nolan Ryan did not make this list. Literally the strikeout king with 5714. Only pitcher to pitch 7 no hitters. He is an 8 time all star. Sure he found his stride later in his career but still.

Ted Williams also almost missed the entirety of the '52 & '53 seasons due to the Korean War. Such a legend.

Ichiro might not have the best sabermetrics but there has never been another player in the history of the game with his bat-to-ball skills

Babe Ruth has to be number 1 for the simple fact that he was well on his way to being one of the 5 greatest pitchers who ever lived before deciding to hit full time. His 6th season in 1919 was the first time he played in over 100 games and his 5th season in 1918 was the first season he had over 200 plate appearances. Imagine 5 more seasons of numbers he could have put up. Probably would have 800 HR.

Willie Mays was so unique that in Venezuela we have an expression that says “Do the Willie” or “Do the Willie Mays”. Which means outsmart someone or trick someone 😂

Couple things you didn’t mention about Albert that may be most impressive. He never struck out more than 100 times in a season, and he finished his career with more xbh than k’s. Prime Pujols is a top 2 or 3 hitter all time.

My favorite baseball quotes of all-time is from Randy Johnson. "I don't keep a gun near my bed, I keep a bag of baseballs. If your going to break into my house, wear a batting helmet, i'm throwing for your head." On another note, i don't know who you would take off, but i felt like Pete Ross, Tony Gwynn and Nolan Ryan should have made the top 25.

Very good presentation. There needs to be three lists: 1) Pitchers only: Koufax Rivera CMathewson CyYoung Ryan Feller LGrove Maddux GAlexander Spahn Carlton Schilling CHubbell EPlank RWaddell WFord, etc et al. 2) Hitting/Players only WITHOUT Steroids. Where are Eddie Collins, Chuck Klein (1929-1933 short career), Ralph Kiner (8 Home Run Titles), Albert Belle (1991-2000), Frank Thomas (1991-2000), Jeter Wagner TSpeaker JFoxx HGreenberg JMize, etc et al. 3) Steroid tainted players: Pujols Bonds Clemens ARoid Bagwell Helton McGwire Sosa Palmeiro IvanRod Piazza Canseco MRamirez DOrtiz Sheffield JuanGon Giambi Pettitte RBraun MoVaughn Gagne Caminiti BretBoone, etc et al. List the greatest of all those who's stats improved after age 30 and into their 40s. Make a revised list of historic baseball records WITHOUT those involved with steroids. Steroids ruined baseball's greatest passion: stats leaders MVPs records ~ too bad. The Steroid tainted players ruined my love for baseball, and many other fans of the game. Druggee Steroid Players made baseball into "ArenaBall" wiith homeruns walks strikeouts and anger/fights as top priorities. Cheers :)

I always find it tough to argue against Babe Ruth as the greatest baseball player of all time. Offensively, he was up there with anybody who's played the game, AND he was an elite pitcher in his time as well. There's nobody in baseball that could match that. The only argument against him is the time in which he played, which doesn't satisfy me. We judge everybody else by the time in which they played. Why nitpick Ruth while giving players in the steroid era a pass?

Henderson also has the second most walks in MLB history aside from Bonds, and he'd also be first all time if you remove intentional walks.

Great list, Marc. I'm glad Rickey Henderson made the list. To me he's the most exciting player in MLB history.

Pretty good list, my only gripe is that Rickey henderson should be higher. He is THE ultimate run generator. The leadoff hitter or all leadoff hitters. His combination of discipline, hitting and speed on the basepaths was something that I don’t think we will ever see again. We are more likely to see another 600-700 hr player then we will seeing a 1400+ sb, 2200+ bb, almost 2300 run player. That alone should make him a top 10-15 player. It’s a minor gripe, but Rickey def deserves more love when it comes to talking baseball

Love the channel. Just found you like an hour ago. Can't get enough. Love it bro!
