Praise for The Baseball 100 and Joe Posnanski "Posnanski offers manna for baseball geeks with his selection of the 100 all-time greatest baseball players, melding the sabermetrics chops of a Bill James with the eloquence and droll humor of a Roger Angell. . . . . Posnanski also nobly, and rightly, casts a wide net, embracing Japanese legends Ichiro Suzuki and Sadaharu Oh, and, more important, long-neglected Negro leagues players, such as Oscar Charleston. . . . Most important, these selections will bring to the mind's eye of any baseball fan a vision of how singularly great each of these athletes have played--or, in the case of the old-timers, might have played--the game. Recommended." -- Booklist "Posnanski is an outstanding journalist, arguably the best pure long-form sportswriter in the land." -- Chicago Sun-Times "Joe Posnanski is a terrific writer." -- Entertainment Weekly "One of the best sportswriters in America." -- Washington Times
