Cleveland Indians Bradley Zimmer their top prospect 6'5" CF.
My reply:
I'm not big on big non-pitchers. Who's the greatest really tall player? Or the tallest really great player?

Five players who could hit. It's a short list. About half of one percent. 1,215 innings would get us 999 pitchers, including Babe Ruth. Pitchers at least 6'5", ERA+ >= 130:

Surprisingly, only 3 pitchers. So, 5 batters and 3 pitchers at least 6 feet, 5 inches tall who performed at least 30% better than league average. Surprising.
