I think Rickey's still the prototype, and would be the prototype in any era. Maybe not the Willie Wilson's and Vince Coleman's of the world anymore, but Rickey wasn't just a slap-hitter with speed. He was an OBP machine, with a little bit of pop.
Judge would have 150+ RBI's right now with a somewhat prime version of Rickey hitting ahead of him.
