In a different era....

[Seven]

One of the hardest things to do is compare players from yesterday to players of today. However, I always like looking at players, especially of the 20th century, and examine how their skillset might have translated to a different time period or if they would've been much more successful had they played in a different time period/under different circumstances.

For an example, I think a guy like Dave Kingman would thrive in this era of baseball, where three true outcomes is very much emphasized. Luis Arraez, who was earlier flirting with .400 would've done incredibly well in the era of guys like Rod Carew.
