However there is not ONE SHRED of evidence to actually suggest the guys from 100 years ago in Baseball would not be as good today because in baseball faster/bigger/stronger does not make you a better baseball player.
My final thought:
If it was all about bigger/faster/stronger then Ozzie Canseco would be in the Hall of Fame and Ozzie Smith would not be!

Rhys, I agree with you. If you dropped Ozzie Canesco into the 1910's in the condition he was in during his prime for a period of 15 years he would be in the HOF!! LOL...
