The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball, says James Earl Jones as Terence Mann in Field of Dreams. Antonio Rudiger Jersey .America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. ... It reminds us of all that was once good and it could be again.Baseball has remained a constant, ever since Civil War soldiers played it in between brutal and bloody battles. The game itself, however, has changed, at times subtly and at times more dramatically, most notably when Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier.So ranking the top 100 players of all time is a difficult -- impossible? -- task. The ESPN panel of expert voters was asked to compare players from 1890 to players in 2016, asked to compare players who didnt play against black players or travel west of the Mississippi to players who now come to the major leagues not just from Latin America but from across the globe. How do you compare Babe Ruth, who didnt face pitchers throwing 90 mph sliders or a parade of relievers throwing 100, to Clayton Kershaw, who didnt have to pitch while sweating through a heavy wool uniform and who has yet to complete his career?It is, ultimately, a subjective ranking, with voters asked to assess both a players career and peak value, which can be dramatically different in how we view a players ultimate legacy. Pete Rose played forever, a model of durability; Sandy Koufax had a short, glorious run of dominance.We do, of course, rely on the numbers. But that can be tricky as well, even without factoring in that the major leagues were segregated until 1947, so all the best players werent even playing against each other. Take the career leaders in wins above replacement on Baseball-Reference.com. Only five of the top 25 players of all time were born after World War II ended: Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Alex Rodriguez, Rickey Henderson and Greg Maddux. Does that intuitively make sense? That a large majority of the greatest players of all time began their careers before Alaska and Hawaii even became states?Other sports dont hold on to history as tightly as baseball does. Few NBA fans will argue that Bob Cousy is better than Stephen Curry or Chris Paul. But in baseball, many will claim Cy Young -- 511 wins! -- is the greatest pitcher ever, even though he began his career when the pitching distance was still 50 feet and a pitchers box existed instead of a slab of rubber.In a way, however, thats what makes these debates so much fun. We can all bring different criteria to our judgments. Stick to the numbers and measure the players only against their peers? Fine. Or make a timeline adjustment and figure the overall talent level of the sport has gotten better -- and thus its tougher to compile some of the gaudy numbers of the past. Thats fine too. Want to factor in a players postseason or World Series accomplishments? Go for it.So there is no agreement here. But we did come up with a list. Hey, we have to start the debates somewhere. We considered Negro Leaguers as well as MLB players, although we did not consider players who played only in Japan (sorry, Sadaharu Oh).Welcome to #MLBRank. Have fun as we roll out the position rankings and then the overall top 100 over the next 10 days, and let the arguments begin. Kostas Manolas AS Roma Jersey . To the surprise of many, it isnt the Wolverines but their in-state rivals the Michigan State Spartans. Mario Rui AS Roma Jersey . Collaros, 25, was solid last season, posting a 5-2 record as the starter while incumbent Ricky Ray was injured. Collaros also started Torontos 23-20 regular-season finale loss to Montreal — Ray didnt dress because the Argos had already clinched first in the East Division — but was one of three quarterbacks to play that day. http://www.asromafcstore.com/Customized/ . -- Teemu Selanne scored the first goal of his 22nd NHL season, and the Anaheim Ducks extended the best start in franchise history with their fifth straight victory, 3-2 over the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night. Chris Berman has taken his Swami Sez NFL picks segment, seen on SportsCenter, to ESPN Chalk. Each week during the NFL regular season, hell give his favorite picks against the spread here with a little further analysis.Season record:?44-20 ATS (last week: 4-1)?Denver Broncos at Tennessee TitansThe Broncos have a Super-Bowl quality defense, and it came to play last week against Jacksonville. Trevor Siemian might play in this one, but Im not sure it makes a difference. This is the biggest game Tennessee has had in a while. The Titans are on their way to being a good team, but with this game a toss-up line, Im taking the battle-tested defense to deliver again.Score: Denver 20, Tennessee 17Houston Texans at Indianapolis ColtsIndianapolis looked great in a 41-10 blowout of a bad Jets team on Monday Night Football. Houston has lost three in a row, but is still tied for first at 6-6 in the AFC South. The Texans defense has played well this season. Look for those guys to play like they did most of the game against the Raiders in Mexico a couple of weeks ago and keep Andrew Luck in check somewhat. Houston pulls out a close one with a couple of big plays on offense and stays in first place.Score: Houston 22, Indianapolis 20Arizona Cardinals at Miami DolphinsWe still have a quarter of the season left, which means its too early to throw in the towel for some teams we thought would be good before the season. Arizona is one of them, annd I think the Cardinals will show up for this game. Diego Perotti Jersey. Even if they arent in the race, theyre playing like they are. The Dolphins arent as bad as they looked last week in Baltimore, but Arizona is a better team. I dont see the Cardinals disappearing quite yet.Score: Arizona 26, Miami 23Pittsburgh Steelers at Buffalo BillsDo we get the Bills team that showed up for the first 2? quarters in Oakland? Or the one that blew a 24-9 lead in the last 1? quarters? Im banking on the good Buffalo team to show up. Pittsburghs defense was very impressive in its win over the New York Giants on Sunday, but in a hotly contested game I like the home team to eke it out here.Score: Buffalo 24, Pittsburgh 23New Orleans Saints at Tampa Bay BuccaneersThis is a game the Bucs are supposed to win if they are going to make the playoffs, which is a position this young team hasnt been in recently. Remember, they were an underdog at home to the Chicago Bears just a month ago. I understand that Drew Brees has been his usual self this season and could break his own record for completion percentage, but I like Tampa here and Im getting under a field goal with the team with a better record. The Jolly Roger will be firing at the new Sombrero as Tampa Bay continues its playoff push.Score: Tampa Bay 27, New Orleans 23 Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
