This week CBS released a list of the 100 best players in Major League Baseball. was ranked No. 47.
There was no statistical merit for this. No numbers were attached to the list and Judge almost falling out of the top 50 made about as much sense as someone like Marcus Semien, a guy who was in the top three in MVP voting last year, barely making the top 30. Also, DJ LeMahieu is not on this list and he was top four in MVP voting. If you lean toward Queens, you’re probably really pissed off that Jeff McNeil – the NL LeMahieu if you will – hasn’t gotten a sniff either.
