Readers who have found their way to this corner of the internet clearly possess both (a) discriminating literary tastes and (b) the exact perfect amount of free time. Also, they’re helping to pay my salary. Congratulations on all accounts.

Having said that, readers should now find their respective ways to another part of the internet — specifically, the one with Old Hoss Radbourn’s Twitter account on it. There, from the shadowy beyond, Old Hoss is currently reviewing ESPN’s ranking of baseball’s top-100 players ever.

For example:

#80: C. Gehringer. A worthy inclusion. Stole the 1937 MVP award from an Italian. Good man and fine patriot.
