The Seattle Mariners recently signed Moises Hernandez to a minor league contract. Not a huge deal, right? Well, he's the brother of reigning AL Cy Young Felix Hernandez.
I'll get into more specifics on that later in the next slide.
I started to think, though. How many other brother combinations have there been, and often did the shared genes translated to shared talent? The best duo was Lloyd and Paul Waner, who are both hall of famers.
After that, there were some combos who both played in the major leagues, but it became apparent that sharing the same parents is about all most of these guys had in common.
This list will be solely for brothers who had large disparities in baseball talent. For a related piece, check out Asher Chancey's top 50 list that looks at all sports and relatives.
