Who is picking up where Rickey Henderson left off?
Bill James once famously suggested you could cut Rickey Henderson in half and still come away with two Hall of Fame players. The tough part, of course, would be deciding which one to put at the top of a batting order.
And so as baseball honors the man recognized by many, including himself, as the greatest leadoff hitter the game has ever known, we're curious how you rank the current crop of leadoff hitters, SportsNation.
Henderson was unique in his ability to hit for power, get on base consistently and create havoc once there, but the current ranks of leadoff hitters offer a wide selection of power, discipline and speed. Who is at the top of your list of hitters at the top of the order?
