Okay, here are some gold glove/mvp winning first basemen. These are their numbers based on an average season. Who makes it, who doesn't? [no cheating - use your gut!]

one and four

 

number 2 is big mac, im guessing?

Depends on how many seasons were played at their "average" season level.

 

If these are active guys, I'm guessing that #1 is Helton and #4 is Pujols. I'd put 1, 2 and 4 in the Hall...

4 has gotta be Pujols.. I didnt cheat.. The Numbers just look right.. 2 is Big Mac aswell.

 

With that said, Pujols has put up amazing numbers his 5 first years that only a couple hall of famers have. It's only 5 years so I'm trying not to get too excited because something could happen to him or he could fall off or whatnot but if he continues to do what he's doing for a big longer he's getting in.

I'll go with #1

Interesting answers so far... Again, don't try to guess who they are - just pick based on your gut and the numbers in front of you.

 

Next one will be much tougher... :mischief2

Okay - here were your choices:

 

1. Lou Gehrig - can you imagine his numbers if he hadn't contracted ALS? The man was a baseball God.

2. Mark McGwire - it will be interesting to see how the steroids allegations affect his vote count.

3. Eddie Murray - I told you I'd make it a little tougher! Consistency over a long period of time helped.

4. Alert Pujols - His numbers so far have been incredible. The fact that he can hold his own against these three speaks volumes about his talent.

1st =1079 OPS

2nd = 982 ops

3rd = 835 OPS

4th = 1037 ops

 

pretty amazing OPS all around, my eyes the most telling stat in baseball.
