Why Johnny Evers ranks #157 in Baseball
Johnny Evers ranks 157th among Baseball athletes on GOAT Rank and 1478th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 86, Honours 86, Statistics 90. 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 1902–1929 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1912, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world series titles 3, mvp awards 1, career hits 1659, career stolen bases 324.
Immediately ahead sits Bill Mazeroski on 85.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Goose Goslin 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.
