Who makes our all-time Home Run Derby bracket? Ranking the most iconic sluggers for all 30 teams

Imagine the ultimate Home Run Derby, as presented by the Time Variance Authority. We can pluck sluggers from across baseball history, bring them together and conduct the greatest home run contest of all time.

What might that look like? I selected one player from each franchise, often the most iconic home run hitter from that franchise's history, but not always. Because I also want sluggers who can hit the ball a long way or who would be entertaining competitors, since the Home Run Derby is also about admiring those towering blasts into the atmosphere. I then ranked all the hitters from 1 to 30 and created a bracket to see how it might play out.
