2. Lou Gehrig

Considered by many baseball writers to be the finest First Baseman that ever lived, Lou Gehrig is also one of the most inspirational figures in sports history.

1. Babe Ruth

The New York Yankees are the most successful baseball team of all-time:

Period.

Love them or hate them, this team has been loaded throughout the years with talent after talent and you might think that it would have been difficult to come up with a consensus number one for the Bronx Bombers, but it really wasn’t.

It can be nobody other than Babe Ruth.

47. Corey Koskie

A member of the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame, Corey Koskie provided a solid bat for the Twins for a few years.  He would accumulate 130 Hits or more four seasons in a row and would also have a pair of 25 Home Run seasons.   His overall run as a Twin would show a respectable 101 Homers with a .280/.474/.463 Slash Line

46. Roy Smalley

Roy Smalley arrived to Minnesota in 1976 in a blockbuster trade (it sent Bert Blyleven to Texas) and would stay the starting Shortstop for the Twins until his departure in 1982.  Smalley’s best season was 1979 where he was named an All-Star and had career highs in Hits (168) and Home Runs (24).
