I saw most of Willie Mays' career and I never thought he was even the best player of his time. He is another guy who, like fine wine, has improved with age. The played 22 years so his aggregate numbers are impressive. However, in his 22 seasons he hit under .300 in 12. He averaged 86 RBIs per seasons along with 35 HRs and 15 stolen bases. Obviously a great player but very far from the best ever.
