In your opinion what do you think is the greatest hitter?
Posted By: Anonymous
No opinion one way or the other except I don't think there is one single greatest hitter. Ruth, Cobb, Jackson, Hornsby, who knows? Good stats will beat good anecdotes everytime and vice versa. Saw Mantle and Williams alot when I was a kid, Musial and Mays some. They were all baseball gods already; I guess Williams was the purest hitter. Of the modern players I have seen, Ichiro comes to mind as the most electrifying hitter. That guy plays like he's trying to bat a thousand. Bonds is a bloody freakshow but he is the definition of danger at the plate. Of the oldtimers mentioned I think I would have most liked to have watched Cobb at bat. His baseball skills along with that crazy edge had to have been really something to witness.
