Default THE 50 HR CLUB...a very telling list.....

Posted By: dennis

i don't agree with this ....."the first group is a list of all-time greats and triple crown winners (except Foster who doesnt belong in the same Tier)"



imo...if wilson,maris, kiner and mize were playing today there would be questions about them too.





edited to add wilson 50 hr year was really an aboration.as was maris'.

mize and kiner were not viewed as hall of fame players in their day,not even close.


wilsons was attributed to the lively ball used that year.
maris' to the addition of 2 expansion teams that watered down pitching staffs.
