Top 100 Players of the Decade

Rob Neyer of ESPN.com has compiled a list of his Top 100 Players of the Past Decade.

I like Rob Neyer a lot, and I don't think rating the top 100 players of a decade is easy, but this list got a lot of ridicule in the comments, and rightfully so.

A few comments I have about doing a list like this:

-How do you judge a guy who played the entire decade vs. one that played only the last 4 years or so? For example, Tim Lincecum, Justin Morneau and Ryan Howard are not on the list. Couldn't you make the argument that they had better decades (even if not playing all 10 years) than someone such as Corey Koskie or Kelvim Escobar?

-Trevor Hoffman needs to be on the list somewhere. If Mariano Rivera is #24, then Hoffman has to be top 100.

-There are two former South Bend players on the list (1 South Bend White Sox player, and 1 South Bend Silver Hawks player). Can anyone find them?
