Although baseball's dark days of syringes and suspicious trainers seem to be behind us, the long ball is still alive and well. There are plenty of guys who make their living going yard and spend their afternoons trotting.
But if we had to build a team of the league's best sluggers, what would it look like? We wouldn't look solely at a player who's a feast-or-famine hitter, would we?
You want a guy who can take it deep but isn't always looking for the long ball, even at the expense of his own team.
So let's construct this squad of monster hitters. We'll go largely, but not entirely, based on slugging percentage. We'll take into account average, but only in the event of a tiebreak. We're looking for big bats, so let's take a look at the game's best sluggers for each and every position.
