Default Cobb vs. Ruth

Posted By: Jason

In response to Scott Elkins post I disagree. I would venture to say that pitching back then would be very substandard of today. I would say that I could have hit .400 back then. Like anything else baseball has progressed. I also agree that there was probably alot of better negro players that we never knew about. I would think MLB teams of last year would probably compare to college level or low level minor league baseball of today.........maybe AA at best. Just my opinion. You guys just simply cannot compare different eras. You can have your opinions, but there is no way to know who was the best.
