    Best player in MLB

    Haven't really even posted in a long time, and I've been watching quite a bit of baseball lately. Who do you think is the best position player and the best pitcher?

    I'm going to go with Adrian Gonzalez & Jered Weaver as of right now.

    If I were making a team, I would choose probably Halladay as my first pitcher though.

    Perhaps if there's no argument there, how about a top 5 position players and top 5 pitchers? :P

          Yeah, but their statistics still stand on their own whether or not I'm a Dodger fan.

            right.

            frank mccourt is also the best owner in baseball.
            and dodger fans are also the best at almost killing other fans.

            Clayton Kershaw is a beast though, 12-4, left handed pitcher, 2.72 ERA, he had 3 straight games with double digit strikeouts this season. And none of those three games were his highest in amount of strikeouts in one game this season.

                    adrian gonzalez 4 sure, as far az fielding ability goes, elvis andrus and ian kinsler r both forces 2 b reckoned w/, but i say that with ranger's fan bias, he he.

                    as 4 pitchers, roy halladay iz doing rly good, i guess itz early in the thread and thats y he hasnt been mentioned?

                      Maybe. I've been to the Rangers ballpark and it's really nice.

                      Ian Kinsler is pretty good, I think he had a 30-30 season actually.

                      I was thinking about Jose Bautista vs Adrian Gonzalez, and I might actually take Bautista over Gonzalez simply because a 3rd baseman is more valuable than a 1st baseman.

                        Bautista hits so much power with good average, if we're talking strictly batting it's not even close. Pitching is arguable and biased because the top 5 are so close.

                          ian kinsler did hit the cycle in 2009 and that was the year he joined the 30-30 club, hes been on the all-star team twice, and his wikipedia entry iz already twice as decorated as michael young's.
                          he's been a consistent performer year after year, always my favorite.

                            The first part of this question is very awkward... Seeing as there are 8 other positions aside from pitcher. Player X might be the best first basemen, but might not be as good as Y at shortstop. That being said, I really can't pick the best 'position player'. However, I will say Weaver takes the cake for pitching. Amazing ERA.

                            Also, I will throw in a vote for best hitter to Jose Reyes. And a close second to Adrian Gonzalez.
                            FUS RO DAH!
