I'd say albert pujols, since he is only "officially" 26, but we all know the guy is like 47.  \n\nMy top 3 age 26 or younger:\n\nDavid Wright - 3b - NY Mets\nJake Peavy SP - San Diego Padres\nMiguel Cabrera - LF - Florida Marlins\n\n5 tool player at 3rd, stud strikeout king starting, and Miguel Cabrera is going to be an MVP on a winning team someday

Well let me see if i can narrow it down.For catching it is hands down Jason Varitek,by far the best catcher and captain of ALL time,for pitching I have ALOT,but i think I will give the title to Jonathan Papelbon.He is not only the best closer(besides Foulky and Timlin),but he is the best rookie:)for infield i am really starting to like Mike Lowell and Kevin Youkilis[poor Youk,he keeps getting hit:(],for outfield i guess i will have to say....Manny Ramirez.don't get me wrong i absolutely LOOOOVE all of the players,but there is just something about Manny:)and last but definitely not least for DH i am going to say Big Papi(and not because he is the only one,but because he is the BEST!!!!!!!!:)

Well you have to understand what positions you are lacking in and sign some young fresh players that are hitting well, some pitchers would be heilman, lirano, tomko, and lieber. Some batters would be brossard, hanley ramirez, and brad wilkerson is starting to get hot. That or you can wait it out, but if you want to be a competitor i would recomend you start signing!

Currently-----> Alex Rodriguez all the way!!! He has over 400 homers, and he is a really stong player. And, he plays good defense on 3B, and even though he swings at a lot of his pitches, that is what gave him all those homers!!!\n\nPast-----> Babe Ruth!!!

Jump on this trade ASAP. Corey Patterson is a dog; look at his OBP for his career and you'll see. Liriano is a good prospect, but pitching prosects usually need 3 years to develop. Hermida is the real deal and should be a contender for NL rookie of the year. Estes is a borderline fantasy player.

I'd have to go with A-Rod at the moment. His stats are similer to Pujos but A-rod plays a slightly more demanding defensive posisiton. A close second is Pujos. \n\nFor the season that's close. Pujos, Berkman, Swisher, Hafner and Thome are having really good years. Nobody is really just taking the year by storm yet. Several other players with a hot streak could be right up there with this group. \n\nJose Contraras on the other hand is having a monster year so far. 5-0 with a 1.41 ERA. Webb is next closest with 6-0 2.30 ERA. \n\nSo best player this season I'd hand it to Contraras so far.

Peavy - He'll get hot & start to win along w/ striking out a ton of guys.  Dumping Peavy would be one of the dumbest moves in your league to date (I'd bank on that).\n\nLackey - He'll pitch well & strike out a few, however that team stinks offensively.  Don't bank on a ton of wins from him.\n\nMarquis - This stinkin' guy will win a few games but DESTROY the rest of your stats.  There's something about Marquis this year and a 10ft pole.......

Player? A-rod\nHitter? Pujols. the guy is about to enter his prime too!

C - Mike Piazza - Me may not be a defensive star, but his bat can't be ignored\n\n1B - Lou Gehrig - Albert Pujols may hold down this spot one day, but he's going to have to keep it up for another 5-10 years before he does. Gehrig is a career .340 hitter with nearly 500 homers. Only Jimmy Foxx comes close. \n\n2B - Rogers Hornsby - His 1922 season when he had 250 hits and  42 homers while batting .401 is the best season ever by a second baseman. He batted .358 for his career\n\n3B - Alex Rodriguez - Mike Schmidt actually deserves the nod here, but the edge is slight. It's only a matter of time (a year or two) before A-Rod cements his place as the game's best ever third baseman. \n\nSS - Cal Ripken - The answer here probably should be Honus Wagner...but because of his ability to play every day, power, and the fact that I've actually seen him, Cal Ripken is my pick. \n\nOF - Babe Ruth - No contest. He's the best player to ever play the game, nevermind the best outfielder. \n\nOF - Ted Williams - "There goes the greatest hitter that ever lived"\n\nOF - Willie Mays - The guy could do it all...run, hit, hit for power, field...The games most well rounded player\n\nDH - Barry Bonds - Love him, hate him, steroirds or not....whatever. Quit bitching about what he may or migiht have done and watch the damn game. Then you'll see that this guy is one of the greatest of all time. He's not a DH, but I figured with his knees he could use a rest. \n\nRHP - Roger Clemens - You could say Walter Johnson...you could say Cy Young. You could even be a complete fool and go with Nolan Ryan. But in an age dominated by hitters, Clemens has dominated everyone. \n\nLHP - Randy Johnson - He was a good pitcher up until he turned 30. Then he became a great pitcher. Everything clicked for him and he dominated the game.\n\ncloser - Mariano Rivera - The closer has become the most overrated player in the game today. Gone are the days where they actually did their team good by going 2 or 3 innings, holding a lead, and dominated a team. But in this age of closers who don't do all that much, Rivera has actually managed to make a difference. He's not the typical closer who pitches an inning a game and manages to rack up 35 saves with 50 innings for the entire year. The guy shortens games. If the Yankees are leading after 8, they win the game.

I'm assuming you're referring to the HR record.  I would probably say Griffey, A-Rod, Pujols or Vlad.  All four are team-players who are natural hitters without taint of steroids and they all love the game for the game.

Wow, that is a goood question, I am a bit prejudiced towrds the Yankees, but I think historically this still valid. The best catchers of my youth are Bench, Fisk or Munson.\n1.Mickey Cochrane \n2.Johnny Bench\n3.Yogi Berra \n4.Josh Gibson\n5.Carlton Fisk\n6.Ivan Rodriguez\n7.Roy Campanella\n8.Elston Howard\n8a.Thurman Munson\n9. Mike Piazza\n10. Bill Dickey\nSorry if it seems like their are alot of Yankees, but that is the way I see it.\n\nHey Disgraced, it was Jackie Robinson, not Hank Aaron.\n\nIn retrospect I think Gibson could be #1 but he was not allowed to play at the same time as many of  his contemporaries, by far he is the best hitter of the bunch.

Cubs, Yankees, or Red Soxs have to be in the tope 3 in my opinion

Cy Young\nNolan Ryan\nWalter Johnson\nRoger Clemens\nRandy Johnson (in his prime)\n\nDennis Eckersly (Misspelled)\nTrevor Hoffman
