well this board will be dead soon as the season winds down so we need to come up with something else to do....who was the best of all time? Not a long assed list or a million stats but who, in your honest opinion, was the best and why... Im guessing ruth is probably going to be tops...
i think eventually arod will be the best but for now im still going with Ted williams..he missed 5 years of his prime to serve our great country and that counts a lot...last guy to hit .400 and he won the triple crown

Babe Ruth was the best ever. Willie Mays maybe.

Nobody dominated the game in their time the way Babe Ruth did. He'd be my choice.

Lets go by position:
C Bench/Rodriguez
1b Gerigh
2b Hornsby
3b Schmidt
SS Arod
lf Williams
cf Mays
rf Ruth
NOw, i take Alomar over Biggio.
Pujols will end up as 2nd best 1st basemen after he is done.
