IMO Ruth was by far the best.
If you made a list of the ten best all-time, whomever you put second (Cobb, Wagner, Mays, etc.), that #2 player would be closer in talent to the #10 player than he would be to Ruth. No one is close to the Babe.

2ed best player ever would be an interesting conversation.

Leaving PED's off the table and looking at numbers - I would say Bonds would be 2ed, but if we are excluding PED's, im thinking Ted Williams

Default Aaron vs. Ruth
Let's end this argument right now in favor of Babe Ruth: Babe Ruth COULD strike out Hank Aaron & the Babe would have been a Hall of Fame PITCHER had he not been converted to a fulltime outfielder! Any ballplayer that could virtually "out-homer" an entire league for several seasons, hit over 700 HR's and over a 5 year-period be one of the game's foremost pitchers IS the greatest player EVER....PERIOD!
