To me it has to come down to Hank Aaron. Take away every single one of his 755 home runs and what do you have? Answer - 3,016 hits. Still enough to get you into the HOF.
I'm surprised that no one ever makes a case for Rod Carew. The guy was an absolute hitting machine. Fifteen straight years with an average over .300 and seven AL batting titles in a ten year period.
