November 01, 2002 at 03:53PM View BBCode
My book is packed away in a box somewhere. Can someone tell me who the 4th CF is on Bill James' list of greatest players of all time?

1. Willie Mays
2. Ty Cobb
3. Mickey Mantle
4. Tris Speaker
5. Joe DiMaggio
6. Duke Snider
7. Ken Griffey Jr.
8. Kirby Puckett
9. Billy Hamilton
10. Jimmy Wynn
An interesting group ... A couple surprising names on it, no?

I was guessing Speaker was the next best, but I couldn't say for sure with Dimaggio and Snider being as good as they were. But I was kinda surprised to see Junior and Puckett on that list.

Puck definitely deserves to be there, Griffey has certainly fallen off since leaving Seattle but I think he's due for a big comeback the next few seasons.
