Major League Baseball as we know it, that is two leagues American and National, playing by the same rules with the champion from each squaring off against the other for baseball supremacy was born in 1901. These rankings only consider seasons and careers from 1901 and after. The stats for each player only includes stats from after 1901. To be eligible offensive players have to have 1,500 career plate appearances, starting pitchers have to have 75 career starts, and relief pitchers need to have 350 career innings pitched.

If you don’t agree, leave a comment and let me know why.
