i dont care about the rest but "the big floppy" and "puff-anny ramirez" really suck. worst of all they belong to the worst team ever in al east .Fun Baseball Tournament Games?
The only one I'll answer is the first one:Hank Aaron all the way.
Tell me things about Jakie Robinson?
Hammerin' HankJim Thome (sorry, I've followed JT from the Cleveland days)
Ichiro Suzuki
Who the hell is Carl Crawford?
The Splendid Splinter
Charlie Hustle (but they BOTH should be in the HOF)
I agree with all your picks and a tie between Crawford and Johnson just to make things interesting

Pittsburgh Pirates april 2, 2007 vs. Astros.?
Depends on what you define as better, more complete, better teammate, better human?Bonds was more of an all-round player (pre-steroids) 500 Hr/500 SB, gold gloves (most of which were earned)
Travis Hafner (Ortiz had a number of poor years before hitting the boom in Boston)
Ichiro is all about contact and speed, Ramirez is about power and driving in runs. In Roto, I want Ramirez, as the GM, I want Ichiro.
Crawford or Reed Johnson? ?? I live in Toronto and am mystified that Reed Johnson is the comparitive for Crawford. Crawford is 5x the player (at least) that Johnson is.
Ruth compares favourably to every player in history when comparing him to his peers.
Pete Rose, despite being the all-time hits leader really wasn't anything that special. Yes, he was passionate, yes, he 'hustled', but didn't really have great skills. He has the all-time hit record because he was the manager of the team and played till he was 45. Based on skill alone, he would have fallen several hundred hits short. He had no power, no speed. His career average was .303, Ty Cobbs was .367. Joe Jackson, was better compared to his peers than Rose was.
What about the White Sox pitching?
Hank AaronDavid Ortiz
Manny Ramirez
Carl Crawford
Babe Ruth
"Shoeless" Joe Jackson
Aaron is the best. The guy is a worked and didnt cheat. (unlike bonds)
I hate to say it but Ortiz is the best DH out of the bunch
I would rather have Ichiro. he plays hard. Gets the job done. Gold Glove and no head games.
Crawford and there is no question about that. Crawford has more speed more power and just all toegether better
Ruth is the god of baseball. The guy re invented the home run and basicly held almost every record at one point and secondly Pitched more Shut outs then Pedro Martinez.
Lastly Pete Rose is the best hitter. He has more hits then anyone ever will get and his hitting streak will never be broken.
Aaron
Hafner
Ramirez
Crawford
Ruth - No contest there considering Ruth was a great pitcher as well.
Joe Jackson even though he was beyond illiterate
Is jason schmit damaged goods?
The Hammer all the way. Bonds only came back for a record, doesn't care his team is in last place, I can't respect that.Hafner. Thome is a 2 face fat * only looking for $$$ is more likely to strike out than get a hit.
Ichiro. Total team player. Not a drama queen.
Crawford...Reed who?
Babe.
Who gets the loss and who gets the no decision in this situation and why?
i think ArrONdavid ortiz
ichiro

i can't decide with ruth or williams

Interleague play...hurt or help baseball?
Hank AaronDavid Ortiz
Manny
Carl Crawford (not even close!)
Ted Williams
not sure on this one
Hank Aaron - No steroids involved, just amazing will and tenacity.
David Ortiz - Extremely clutch hitter, whereas the other two haven't proven much in that way.
Manny Ramirez - The guy's been one of the elite hitters in the game when Ichiro was still slapping singles in Japan.
Carl Crawford - If this kid ever plays for a contender, people will see how good he really is. Speed and some power, very solid.
Babe Ruth - Sorry, I have to disagree with you here. While I'll admit that Ted had a much better APPROACH to hitting, you can't question Ruth's results. Additionally, Ruth won a ton of games as a pitcher. 100 wins + 714 homers? That's amazing.
Shoeless Joe - This guy got such a bum rap for the black sox scandal, and was a truley dominant 5-tool player who history has decided to forget. Sadly enough, I think he batted something like .438 in the series that he supposedly 'helped throw'. I wish A-Rod would try to throw a playoff series by hitting .438.
Is there a website out there that can list what players wore a certain number?

Who had the most hits in baseball in the 1990s?
Hank Aaron by far, that man had wayyyy more class and respect then Bonds does or will any day!David "Big Papi" Ortiz=Sunday Night, enough said.Manny, better defensive player!Crawford, one of the most underrated outfielders in the league today.Ted Williams all the way baby!Pete Rose, I may get slammed for that answer, but oh well.I'm just curious as to why Red Sox fans hate Johnny Damon?
For me it's:Hank Aaron
Jim Thome
Manny Ramirez
Carl Crawford
Babe Ruth
"Shoeless" Joe

Why does the pitcher have to bat, if the designated hitter replaces someone in the field?
Great question! I would say:Aaron--longevity, no drugs, played in very difficult racist conditions and performed.
Ortiz--still progressing as a player.
Ichiro--he's a great contact hitter, fast, great outfielder. Manny may have the ribbies and HR's, but his fielding is questionable.
Crawford--still getting better.
Ruth--could do it all, also was a great pitcher. Only guy who could eat 15 hotdogs and go out and playball.
Jackson--hit .351 lifetime average, equal hustle for his day.
