02/25/07, 05:27 PM
It's gotta be Stockton/Malone or Manning/Harrison. I think for the next generation of sports it is going to be Crosby/Malkin, Leinart/Fitzgerald (If Leinart pans out that is), Wood/Kendrick (I'll take a double play combo as the only type of duo in Baseball), and Kevin Durant/Whoever his point guard is.

i'm just fuckin with ya.
it's hard to think of a lot of solid ones worth mentioning without going back about 15 years anyways.
same for Jeter/Cano.
Guillen and Polanco? After last year you may have to think about that, even though Guillen has had his fair share of errors but overall production wise I think they were the best next to Jeter and Cano.

Guillen and Polanco need to do it for a few more years---and Cano's obviously gotta catch up with Jeter.

I don't think either Cano/Jeter or Guillen/Polanco are anywhere's close to it. Cano and Jeter have been on the same roster for 3 years and Polanco/Guillen for 1 1/2. I don't know how anyone can go with either of those two as "best of the last decade".

maybe the next decade? if Ploanco and Guillen can produce what they did last year for a few more years, and same with Jeter and Cano, then i think a valid case might be made.
how about this one--Walker/Helton.

Hull/Madano? Get out of here with that. He had 2 better years and one equal year in Detroit than he did dallas. If we're talking strictly the last 10 years, his Red Wings days were better stastically than his Dallas days.
If anything, try Zubov/Sydor or Madano/Lehtonen.

If its going to be Brett Hull it would have to be Hull and Oates, but that was many many years ago.

Oh yeah for sure. Hull and Oates combo put up ridic. numbers, but it was closer to 20 years ago than it was 10 years ago. That's the only reason I didn't say it. But Hull and Oates > any other player Hull ever played with in terms of production.
