I don't know if this has ever been asked on this forum but I'd like to hear what you think:
Which of the pre-war stars could play in the MLB today? A couple of notes before everyone else mentions them: 1. I mean in the condition they were in at their prime. Take them out of the game and insert them into a game in 2011. 2. I know it's not fair (i.e. they didn't have access to the same training programs, travel was tougher, etc.). My opinion, no one would be a star in today's game. Not Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Christy Mathewson, etc. I wish there was a way to prove it, but I'd bet Walter Johnson didn't even throw 90mph. What are your thoughts/opinions?
