Frank Robinson
Willie McCovey
Norm Cash
Mike Schmidt
Dave Kingman
Reggie Jackson
Gorman Thomas
Babe Ruth
Josh Gibson
Willie Mays
Hank Aaron
Lou Gehrig
Ted Williams
Stan Musial
Mickey Mantle
Willie Stargell
Bo Jackson
Sorry…. I thought it was 10 players but now I don’t know which two I would take out. 🤔
Ruth
Bonds
Griffey Jr
McGwire
Adam Dunn (guy could hit the ball a mile)
Othani
Harper
Frank Thomas, Tatis Jr, or Valdy Jr I cant really decide for the last spot.
I had Prince Fielder there initially but needed to edit it for Othani.
Wisconsin 2-6 against the SEC since 2007
Mays
McCovey
Stargell
Horton
Can almost do this with just Willies.
Mcgwire
Big Hurt
Griffey
Ruth
Mantle
McCovey
Reggie
Stargell
I want guys who can launch bombs. 500 footers
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
Hank Aaron
Mickey Mantle
Jim Thome
David Ortiz
Albert Pujols
Norm Cash
Aaron Judge
Darryl Strawberry
Gotta go with guys I saw live here...
Juan Gonzalez
Willie Stargell
Reggie Jackson
Mark McGwire
Willie McCovey
Aaron Judge
Sammy Sosa
Dave Kingman or Jose Canseco-- either one
I couldn't decide between Rob Deer and Richie Sexson...so I went with Kingman (kidding)
Sosa edges out Bo Jackson, Ichiro and Wade Boggs
I was shocked when I saw Ichiro hit 6 balls in a ROW--3 made the concession concourse--at Comiskey Park. Boggs hit for unreal power in BP also.
