I have a longstanding belief that, when you factor in fielding, range, positional value, and so on, this guy is the best defensive full-time player in the sim.

Although many people already have their Ty Cobb, there are enough people who do not and this is the Cobb I've been targeting all along, mainly because I knew he'd fall a bit due in the draft to his D+/D+ defense. But he always does well for me, due to normalization (1909 was a pitching-dominated season). The only other full-time Tigers batters who have a 155 OPS+ are '11 Cobb, '17 Cobb, '10 Cobb and '61 Cash. Those four players were picked in rounds 1 or 2.
