Nice list, lotsa work, but I had to do this - mine might include more negros... where's Josh Gibson? Satchel Paige? Cool Papa Bell? And I'd take Pujols over Bagwell any day. Also thanks for getting the Yankees shortstop's ranking correct too!!!

Yeah, I didn't include Negro League players. Thanks for pointing it out, I simply forgot. Pujols is not up there because he could always die tommorow, lol.

I'll take a dead Pujols tomorrow over healthy Bagwell anyway, "Mr. Strikeout the Side swinging" =)

I don't really even like Pujols, but I mean... come on! Mariano Rivera's not dead yet either... he could start sucking, after all, he is winless in World Series game 7's

Come on Manny, Rivera and Pujols are in two very different part of their careers.

Pujols or Bagwell? No question it's Bags... but Bags vs. Frank Thomas? Now you have a debate... look at the numbers.

Pujols isn't eligible for the Hall of Fame so I agree with not putting him on the list.

Assuming he never plays again Bagwell is eligible, Pujols isn't. Sorry, should have been more clear.

Guys -- I don't care how you do it. My list didn't have guys that were not eligible.

I really like the fact that Chipper Jones is on the list. Believe it or not, he's also my #10 third basemen. He's put up excellent offensive numbers with good defense for many years. I searched for hours looking for someone better, but I couldn't find it. Nice call.
