The Baseball 100

The Baseball 100 by Joe Posnanski. Baseball writer Joe gives his take on the 100 best players of all time. What is interesting about this is that it is not a countdown. Many of the players are listed at a number that is significant to them. Joe Dimaggio is 56, Jackie Robinson is 42 etc. So that makes it more interesting than starting at the bottom and working your way up. He does spend a lot of time with black players, the Negro League and the impact on the MLB that those players were not in the main stream. He also spends lots of time on stats, which is not really my thing, but thoroughly researched.
