The most unreliable way to judge a player is from someone elses opinion. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one and they almost always stink.
Bob Uecker's career BA against Koufax was .429, if Uecker said Koufax was easy to hit against, would you believe him?
Ralph Kiner said Ewell Blackwell was the toughest pitcher he ever faced, does anyone believe that Blackwell was an all-time great?
No because stats are facts, not opinions.
