history of baseball?

Offensively I would say Jeff Kent
All around Robby Alomar

Joe Morgan ~ Cincinnati Reds

That is a really tough question, considering there are at least seven legitimate contenders(Napoleon Lajoie, Eddie Collins, Rogers Hornsby, Jackie Robinson, Joe Morgan, Roberto Alomar, Craig Biggio) for the top spot.
Hornsby was the best hitter, but a so-so fielder, a selfish attitude, and a rude and obnoxious personality. Collins was the smartest player, great at positioning, but no power, but played when nobody had power. Morgan was a good fielder, and a master of astro-turf offense good OBP, decent power, and great baserunning. He also is obnoxious. Robinson was actually a great fielder, very good hitter, and great leader. He also had a short carrer, not allowed to start until age 28, and by age 35 diabetis slowed him down a lot, and played in a era where nobody stole bases.
I reluctantly give the nod to Morgan, but I would rather have Jackie Robinson be on my team as the 2nd baseman.

Frank White and his seven gold gloves

Robinson Cano

Rogers Hornsby

Ryan Sandburg.... with his numerous gold gloves and his great personality.... there never has been a better second baseman

Robby Alomar, with his ability to steal bases, bit for average and being in my opinion hands down the best defensive 2nd baseman ever its got to be him.
