Solving Baseball's Biggest What ifs?

I ran across a neat article todayGreat baseball what-ifs. Well, more of a thread. We have a great platform to try and solve these what ifs. Some of my favorite what ifs:

if Ken Griffey Jr stayed with the Mariners?
if there was no WWII?
if Mickey Mantle stayed healthy for the whole '61 season?
if Babe Ruth stayed on the Red Sox, or a pitcher, or started as a batter?
if Ichiro started in the MLB?
if Ty Cobb played today? Can you imagine Ty Cobb and social media?!?
if Barry Bonds never left Pittsburgh?

I could go all day. Has anyone done any of these and would like to share? What are your favorite what ifs?

What if the Black Sox scandal never happened. they won 3 World Series in the early 20's along with 1919. in one league i did back on 11.
what if the Dodgers & Giants never left NY.
What if Satchel Paige & Josh Gibson came into MLB in 1926 & 1929. ( i may be off on their Negro league rookie years)
What if there were no steroids in baseball.
What if the 1994 strike never happened.
What if Veeck never owned the Sox 1959 - 1961 just to destroy them.

What if Gooden and Strawberry had not succumbed to their troubles in the late 80's?
What if Steinbrenner put his cash and energy into his hometown Cleveland Indians?
What if there was no free agency?
What if there was promotion and relegation in major league baseball?
What if the Reds didn't trade Frank Robinson for Milt Pappas?
