Q:Who's your favorite baseball player?
Anonymous
My favorite player of all time is Roberto Clemente — even though I obviously never got to see him play, I just think that his life story and his passionate playing style are two of the most beautiful things in baseball history. <3 Momen <3
My favorite active player is Lance Berkman. Lance just feels like “one of us” to me when I see him in interviews — he’s funny, humble, smart, and recently mustachio’d. I also think he’s been severely underrated for almost the entirety of his career, and I honestly think if he can sustain a few more years like last year, his career looks HOF worthy.
Some other favorites: Josh Gibson, Henry Aaron, Roger Maris, Lou Gehrig, Ernie Banks, Nolan Ryan, Ken Griffey Jr., Jeff Bagwell, Tim Lincecum, Dustin Pedroia…
