New York owns the top of ESPN’s best baseball player rankings

Over the past week, ESPN has been publishing their rankings for the top 100 baseball players of all-time. On Thursday, they posted the top of the list: Nos. 1-25.

And players who spent parts of their careers in New York are all over the top of the list. New Jersey’s own Mike Trout, who has played his entire career with the Angels on the other coast, is the highest-ranked active player at No. 15 overall.

We previously considered where ESPN ranked Derek Jeter — and whether or not Jeter is actually overrated by ESPN’s crew.
