I used to think...
I used to think todays ballplayers are better than the old timers because they are bigger, stronger, faster.
The World record running 100 meters has gradually been lowered over the decades. Same goes for the Swimming 100 meters world record times.
But I tend to agree with some here - baseball is different. The raw talent may trump the bigger, better, stronger, faster theory.
Go back and look at some threads on this subject here - some pretty good arguments can be made for the Baseball old timers holding their own against the modern players.
