Honus Wagner
Simply the greatest ever. Could play almost every position, great hitter who was always amongst the league leaders in batting average, slugging percentage, rbi. Usually led the league in stolen bases and considered the best fielder of his era.

Played well at Shortstop and hit extremely well. Apparently used performance enhancement drugs which helped his power numbers. Now plays 3rd Base.

Great Consective Game Streak and good power hitter. Probably would have hit for higher average had he rested some.
