Why Goose Goslin ranks #158 in Baseball
Goose Goslin ranks 158th among Baseball athletes on GOAT Rank and 1482nd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 88, Honours 82, Statistics 92. Those categories are normalised against the full Baseball reference universe of 262 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1921–1938 with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1928, which sets the Peak component at 90. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world series titles 2, career hits 2735, career rbis 1612, career batting average 0.316.
Immediately ahead sits Johnny Evers on 85.9, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Burleigh Grimes on 85.8. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
