Analysis: After going through these hitters, it is even more remarkable that three of these pitchers won MVP Awards. That is unheard of these days. This is one of the best offensive decades in baseball history and featured the end of many careers including Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. I am interested to see what you, the reader, have to say about my outfield choices. There is little speed in this lineup, but tons of power which was the popular thing to have at this time.

111 R, 6 HR, 128 RBI, 10 SB, .388 AVG
One of the most intriguing stat lines of the decade. Very similar to Tommy Herr in the 80s
8-110-31-302 with 97 runs
