Because of the lack of voting for this round, I'm going to push the date to July 13th at 11:59pm. I want to at least get 5 votes for each round.

I bsed my votes not on their defensive ability as a first baseman but as overall players since you didnt specify otherwise. If it is solely based on defense let me know and I will make some changes.

Just make Lou Gehrig the winner. There's no point in going through a whole bracket.

There are a lot of people I know who would consider McCovey and Foxx to be the greatest first basemen ever.

[ORS]

I'm only voting for one person in this round, and it's because I see a disturbing trend. McCovey over Mattingly.
