Max-Go to Leaders and then near the bottom of the page click on HOF Monitor. It ranks players, both HOF and non-HOF, according to several categories, including batting.

Bill James'Historical Baseball Abstract ranks Joe Jackson as the sixth greatest left fielder after Ted williams, Stan Musial, Barry Bonds, Rickey Henderson and Yaz. Finally, Total Baseball ranks Jackson as the 49th greatest player ever just behind--guess who--Wade Boggs.
