No other high school outfield is even remotely close to this.

Non of those things you mentioned about Ryan determine how good a player is. Nolan Ryan is absolutely not a top 25 player he’s probably in that 60s range. He had 83 war in 27 years and had a career 112 ERA+ he was really great but he’s easily the most overrated player of all time.

Great video! I would have included Lefty Grove somewhere on the list. In 17 seasons he led in E.R.A. 9 times and K's 7 times. Although I love Mel Ott, Tris Speaker was better. Tris was the Willie Mays of his time. He had 3,514 hits, a record 792 doubles, 222 triples, 436 steals, .345 AVG, .427 OBP, .500 SLG, 3 titles. He had 449 outfield assists. Cobb is a distant second with 392. The problem with Ott (and I love Mel Ott) are his splits. He hit 323 of his 511 homers at home. Against the Phillies at Shibe Park he hit .415 in 119 games with 40 HR and 162 RBI. His OBP was .508 and slugged .774. When the Phils moved to the Baker Bowl he hit .220 in 71 games with 0 HR and 33 RBI. His OBP was .330 and he slugged .272. A 1.282 OPS compared to .602.

His career stolen bases record is by far the most lopsided of all the career records.

Babe Ruth has to be number 1 for the simple fact that he was well on his way to being one of the 5 greatest pitchers who ever lived before deciding to hit full time. His 6th season in 1919 was the first time he played in over 100 games and his 5th season in 1918 was the first season he had over 200 plate appearances. Imagine 5 more seasons of numbers he could have put up. Probably would have 800 HR.

His 7th no hitter, he didn't know if he would be able to pitch cause of his elbow, but he warmed up and he went back to the dugout and told his team 'all I need is 1 run tonight boys.'

Good list...but shocked to not see Greg Maddux

I know it's impossible to narrow these things down to 25 guys, but if this is my list I'm making room for Steve Carlton. Talk about criminally underrated 😅 For a big chunk of my childhood, Lefty was 2nd all-time in Ks behind Nolan Ryan. Not to mention 3 Cy Youngs, 10 All Star nods, a World Series ring and of course a HOF plaque. Steve Carlton, my favorite left handed pitcher ever on my beloved Phillies 😁👍

Narrow down the list by not putting pitchers in give them their own top 25 list pitchers though valuable. Don't have the stats to be considered best players

I honestly might have put Roberto Clemente on there. One of the best defenders of all time and would have finished with even more hits if he didnt tragically die. He is top 25 in my eyes.

Roberto Clemente for sure. Willie Mays level player.

How many times did Barry Bonds steal home plate? How many times did he pitch in a World Serres? How many times did he hit more homers than entire teams? When people talk about the most LOVED athletes of all time, we hear Pele, Ali, and Ruth.

Not bad. Biggest omit in my eyes is Honus Wagner. Other tough omits would be Jimmie Foxx (rated 2nd in HRs until 1966) & Nolan Ryan. I think Foxx was quite a bit better than Ott. Good list though. Glad to see someone give kudos to Bonds. I know it’s off the table, but Sadaharu Oh.

Nice list. I would've liked to see Pete Rose and Ichiro make it with all those career hits (and Ichiro's defense). Also, I was a bit surprised Rivera didn't make it for being the best closer ever.

Rivera is definitely one of the most skilled pitchers ever, but his value as a reliever just doesn't allow him to be considered a top 25 player bc his impact was limited only pitching 1-2 innings out of the pen as opposed to some of these starters who went 8-9 innings.

For me The Ryan Express was the most amazing “offensive” pitcher the game has ever seen with his strikeouts and complete and perfect games but his “defensive “ stats bring him down. He gave up too many homers and way too many grand slams, lots of losses and walked way too many batters. Still, as a young kid, I never saw a more dominant physical pitcher and the fact he could still throw a fastball over 100 in the 8th and 9th inning of several games is a testament to his raw physical presence.

u gotta include greg maddux on this list. right up there with randy and pedro.

You can’t ignore the steroids issue w Bonds. I agree he would’ve been a HOFamer w/out but his numbers would not be what they were. Common sense, nature tells us you don’t get progressively better in your late 30’s early 40’s unless like Bonds and Clemens you “roid up.” But great list anyway, good job!

Notable misses: Maddux, Rose, Robinson, Clemente, Ryan, Ichiro, Gwynn, Miggy, Ripkin, A Rod, Cy Young, and Kershaw. Tough to find a spot to eliminate guys on the current list. Tough to argue with such a talented group of players.

DiMaggio is underrated, easily top 10. Overshadowed by the bigger media of the 50s and 60s and Baby Boomer fans that love Mantle and Mays. DiMaggio was a stellar defensive outfielder and had a cannon for a throwing arm before a shoulder injury about halfway through his career. He averaged about 1 HR per strikeout. (361 HR vs 369 SO) while missing some prime years in the military. Dimaggio hit 8 World Series HR - none at Yankee stadium, because it was so skewed for left-handed batters.

Great comment. Watching Bonds hit was like watching a video game. You couldn't believe it was real life. A man amongst boys. Bonds was so good, he basically broke the game, hence the absurd amount of walks and intentional walks. Bonds in baseball was the equivalent of Gretzky in hockey, Wilt in basketball, Tiger in golf, Pele in soccer: simply changed the sport. The opposition had to come up with all new strategies, just to try and contain him, and he still excelled. 7 MVP's, but objectively should've had 9-10. The year Bonds lost the MVP race to Terry Pendleton was criminal. Also to be noted: Bonds never retired. He was forced out of the game.

Rickey Henderson at #23 is an absolute joke. He has nearly 500 MORE steals than the second place guy. He’s the also the all-time leader in runs scored and was the all-time walks leader until Balco Bonds was walking 150 times a season. He was also a very good fielder. Rickey would drive opposing pitchers crazy. He would work a pitcher to draw a walk or get a hit. He would then distract the pitcher by stealing bases. If he concentrated on power he would have certainly hit 500 home runs. As it is he nearly hit 300 homers. At WORST Rickey is a top 10 player and the lead off hitter on a team of the best players ever assembled. As far as total impact players, it’s either him or Mays that should be considered the greatest of all-time.
