Greatest lineups you have ever seen in Baseball.

Personally, growing up...I remember in the 90's when the Indians were a powerhouse. I dont think many lineups EVER could hold a candle to that 1995 Cleveland Indian lineup. There may have been a few better ones, but i'd say the '95 Indians probably had one of the greatest lineups in the history of the MLB. Check out their stats for that season. They should have won the world series in '95 and '97...but we all know the tragic ends to those tales.

1. Kenny Lofton- CF .310 avg. 54 stolen bases
2. Omar Vizquel- SS .266 avg. Not a great hitter, but one of the greatest fielding shortstops of all time.
3. Carlos Baerga- 2B .314 avg. 15 HR 90 RBI
4. Albert Belle- LF .317 avg. 50 HR 126 RBI
5. Eddie Murray- DH .323 avg. One of the best hitters of all time
6. Jim Thome- 3B .314 avg. 25 HR- one of the best hitters in recent years as well.
7. Manny Ramirez- RF .308 avg. 31 HR 107 RBI It's Manny- 'nuff said.
8. Paul Sorrento - 1B .235 avg. 25 HR- The weakest part of the lineup.
9. Sandy Alomar- C- .300 avg. When his knees were healthy, he was one of the best catchers in the league.

Any lineup where Manny is batting 7th looks pretty damn strong to me.

Willie Mays Hayes
Pedro Cerrano
Rodger Dorn
Wild THing Vaughn
and fucking Tom Berrenger!!!!!!

IDK but the Yanks have to have one of em

Pete Rose
Ken Griffey Sr
Joe Morgan
Tony Perez
Johnny Bench
George Foster
Dave Concepcion
Cesar Geronimo

Big Red Machine yo

Thought about Cinci having one but would never know the players

I looked at the 1996,1998, 2000 and 2001 Yankees but lineup wise it isnt close to that Indians squad.

saw the Rangers alot when they had Juan Gonzales, Pudge Rodriguez, Palmeirom Mark McLemore and Rusty Greer

Personally I still think that the Michael Young, Teixeira, Alfonso Soriano, Hank Blaylock (in his 1 good year), Josh Hamilton, Milton Bradley and Sammy Sosa team was pretty nice

I think they missed that part lol.

In person?

How about 04 Astros. They weren't all in their prime at the same time but how about this

Biggio
Kent
Bagwell
Berkman
Beltran

Those 5 in a row was pretty nice.

Yeah as big of a Tigers fan as I am and will always be Jeff Bagwell is 1 of my favorite players of all time. That lineup was stacked also Farmer u are right.
