its funny how many dont like to consider current players in "best ever" conversations. as much as i love vintage baseball the game today is played on another level. In every pro sport as time progresses the game is played on a higher and higher level. But since certain statistics are so incredible (if taken in the context of todays game) in the early days of baseball some like to just look at that and say most the greatest players played at the turn of the century through the 1920's. but we know thats not true. I think its really only fair to compare players to other players of their era, as the game and the way its played has changed so much. as for Ted, he is one of, if not the greatest hitter to play baseball. However if Albert Pujols stays healthy I believe at the end of his career he may be looked at as the greatest hitter of all time.
