Six Hall of Famers MLB Draft : CHAT

[Nosferatu]

I cant believe Gehrig made it to pick 11 thats just crazy!

 

[Ritzarmy]

I dont wanna read above!

Then don't ask questions

I agree with not picking for Bums. Unless we get to rd3 where we should pick so he doesn't get way to far behind.

 

[UK Cowboy]

What if someone wanted that player and would have picked him and Bums drops the player and someone else gets him?

I guess tough luck lol. IDK, there's no perfect answer

 

[Ritzarmy]

I cant believe Gehrig made it to pick 11 thats just crazy!

I had to check to see if he was already taken. No way he should drop this far.

 

[Ritzarmy]

I have Gehrig listed as the #6 best player of all time. He moves way up in this draft.

Gehrig is the 4th best hitter ever IMO

Teddy Ballgame?

 

[UK Cowboy]

Teddy Ballgame?

I'd go Teddy 5 and Aaron 6. Don't think you could go wrong any way you went

 

[Nosferatu]

I gotta tell ya I can't see how Willie is ahead of Ted Williams or Lou Gehrig

 

[UK Cowboy]

Bums pick is in, good deal. Who's up, Milk?

 

[Nosferatu]

Honestly Mickey should be included in that list as well...

 

[Gold Rush 86]

I love my 1st 2 picks with Lou Gehrig and Hank Aaron. I just have to decide who bats #3 and who is the cleanup hitter.

Gehrig is hands down my favorite player in baseball history, so it's hard for me to argue this, but Mays hit 150 more Homers and stole 300 more bases than either guy, while still hitting .300+. They both had higher average, but the extra speed and power did it for me

Gehrig 3 Aaron 4 IMO

Willie had 3000 more at bats than Ted Williams and almost 3000 more than Gehrig. Gehrig and Teddy both average more HR's per 162. Ted Williams OBP is 100 points higher than Willies and Gehrig's is 60 points higher they both have him by about 40 points on batting average as well.

You got me on steals though...
