Hmmm I was going to say Dave Winfield, I know he hit a bird with a throw once but he didn't play for the 1940s Red Sox

In my lifetime, the best 2B has been Ryne Sandberg, he was a great fielder, had good speed and stole bases, hit for average and power. My favorite all-time Cub...that's saying something coming from a die hard Cards fan. He just played the game the way it should be played...with that attitude of baseball owing him nothing and him owing baseball everything he had. He was fun to watch.\nBut of all-time, Rogers Hornsby had some unbelievable stats that will never be matched. Ever.

Paul Waner won the MVP in 1927, Robinson in 1961 and 1966, Clemente in 1966 and Yount in 1982 and 1989. So the answer is Al Kaline.

Albert Pujols.\n\nHowever, the best player of ALL TIME on the Cardinals was Rogers Hornsby, who has the highest batting average EVER in a season (.424) in 1924.\n\nAs for pitching, best pitcher today is Chris Carpenter, best pitcher of all time in Cardinals history is Bob Gibson.

Gotta go with guys whose nicknames were so big, many people didn't know their real name.  Guys like Oil Can Boyd, Babe Ruth, Yogi Berra, and Catfish Hunter.

There is no player in the Baseball Hall of Fame named Ruby Stephens.  There have been 8 players named "Stephens", 7 players named "Stevens", one player named "Stephen" and one player named "Steeven" in Major League history.  None of those players have made the Hall.  Sorry.

I would have to say Barry Bonds because he is said to be the greatest hitter of all time but those are hard to get.Also ones like Albert Pujols, Derek Jeter, and others who will be a big part of baseball history years down the line.

Ichiro is a hitting machine. And could be the first player to hit .400 and i hope he passes Pete Rose that way the best hitter will at least be in the hall of fame.

Eddie Feighner...The King and His Court\nI saw that guy strike out people pitching from second base. He was unbelievable.

I would have to guess Walter Johnson, who is second all time in wins, with 417, and played in an 8 team American League his entire career.  Well before inter- league play, also.\n\nThe next most wins in the AL is Roger Clemens with 310 wins and after expansion, so I think Johnson is a safe bet.  Eddy Plank comes in third with 305, and since he was before expansion, so he has a better chance than Clemens, but I'm going with Johnson.

Bob Feller is considered the first pitcher to throw the baseball over 100 mpm. He played for the Cleveland Indians in the 40s and 50s. Today, his plaque hangs on the wall of the hall of fame.
348000
George Sisler is my pick\n\nA sharp batting eye and extraordinary fielding ability at first base led Ty Cobb to call George Sisler "the nearest thing to a perfect ballplayer." The owner of an engineering degree, Sisler was one of baseball's most intelligent and graceful players, starring predominantly for the St. Louis Browns. He won two batting titles, hitting over .400 both times, and amassed an astounding total of 257 hits in 1920, a record that stood for 84 years until surpassed by Ichiro Suzuki in 2004. He had a 41-game hitting streak in 1922, hit .300 or better 13 times and had a sizzling .340 lifetime batting average.

He should have an * next to his records. The sportswriters should not vote him into the hall of fame, unless they let Pete Rose in also. His records were achieved without cheating but by "hustling". (Trying Harder)
