It's very close between three seasons for me. 1876 Barnes (20 win shares in a 66 game season), 1901 Lajoie and 1922 Hornsby.

Sorry to rule someone out because of what year they were born in, but I won't declare any season from before 1890 the greatest season of all-time for that position, ESPECIALLY when we are talking about 66 games.
I am torn between Lajoie and Hornsby myself.

Going with Hornsby. I'd like it if these polls were public.

I've made every one of these polls public, but it doesn't work for me for some reason. I think it's an AOL problem.

My 2 best seasons are very close : Collins in 1909 & Hornsby in 1924.
Neither are listed, so I chose Hornsby 1922.
