Yep, who else would he rep in the HOF? He had his breakout year his last season with LAD and a majority of his All Star appearances and playoff appearances were as a Ranger.

He's ranked 6th ALL TIME among all 1b candidates.
He's not in this group (no particular order):


  • Gehrig
  • Foxx
  • Pujols
  • Anson
  • Mize
  • Musial
  • Killebrew
  • Murray
  • McCovey
  • Thomas

Heck, if you think he's better than Thomas, I almost forgot about Miggy, who has also played nearly half his games at 1B. Miggy would go ahead of Bagwell as well.

Is that your list? Sorry I said many. Not some random Texags poster. Besides Thomas is not a 1B, he is a DH.

So by "many" you meant random Texags posters that are Astros fans? Who do you put Bagwell ahead of on that list?

Oh, and btw, Frank Thomas is on the list that you provided for JAWS leaders at 1B.

I gave you a link to a reputable site that you yourself used to defend Beltre.

You gave me a random list.

And "greatest first basemen" isn't solely determined by JAWS rankings. I gave you a list of 10 first basemen that I believe are better than Bagwell. I actually included 11 when I edited to mention Miggy. Which 2 of those 11 do you think Bagwell is better than?

That's adorable. Oh, and forgot to include Greenberg.

You know it's okay that Bagwell is a top 15 first baseman, right? There's no shame in that.

How was Killebrew better? He was very one dimensional.

For starters, he was far more versatile as a player. 969 games at 1B. 791 games at 3B. 470 games in LF. 11 games at 2B.

He was a below average defensive player at all 3 positions though.

Would you rather have a below average defensive player that can play multiple positions, or a below average defensive player that can only play one?

Like I said, there's no shame in being a top 15 1B of all time. But, who are the "many" that you claim are saying he's a top 10 1B?

How was Bagwell below average? He won a gold glove, had plus speed, had above average range, and when he wasn't battling a shoulder issue (2000-2005), he wasn't quite a Keith Hernandez, but was comparable.

Bagwell's career dWAR was -7.9
Hernandez's career dWAR is 0.6 which is high for a 1B

So except for 2000-2005... Which was almost half his career.

It was 1/3rd but I don't expect you to actually know how to do math.

Bagwell had a dWAR run of -0.4, -0.1, -0.1, +0.1, -1.0, -0.2, -0.6

That is not considered below average and that was almost half of his career.

Well we aren't wrong when we say the Astros are insignifant. It just so happens that both of our franchises historically suck donkey dick

He's signed through '16 and I'd imagine that barring a major injury or drop in production Texas will bring him back. In another season and a half he will have played more games with the Rangers than any other team.

You blew a **** ton of games lead this year and had to play a play in game just to make the playoffs. Your franchise has been irrelevant since I don't know how long ago. You can say you were relevant in the world series year but you got swept.

Let that sink in

So you're saying that a team is only relevant if they win the World Series? This has to be the dumbest **** I've read on TexAgs in a long time

Obviously KC was irrelevant last year too, because they had to make the playoffs through the wildcard
