Why Mickey Cochrane ranks #147 in Baseball
Mickey Cochrane ranks 147th among Baseball athletes on GOAT Rank and 1450th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 86.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 92, Longevity 76, Honours 88, 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 1925–1937 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1930, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes mvp awards 2, world series titles 3, career batting average 0.32, all-star selections 2.
Immediately ahead sits George Davis on 86.3, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Waite Hoyt on 86.2. 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.
