I think that it's time to ask the following question.
Who's the greatest Slugger (Home Run Hitter) of all time?
Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Willie Mays, ....?
What do you think?
Who are your Top 10, or top 5, or Top 3 sluggers of all time?
Not only Home Runs (HRs) should be taken into account when trying to pick up
the greatest slugger. Two very important parameters are:
SLG (Slugging percentage) and BA (Batting average; hits divided by at-bats).
Of ocurse there are many other parameters to take into account!
I am convinced that the list contains Top 10, and perhaps more, Greatest Immortal Sluggers.
Baseball experts speak up!
Let's enjoy the poll and interesting discussions!
I have voted for Immortal and phenomenal 'The Bambino', ie. Babe Ruth.
************************************************** ******
My second choice would be Immortal and phenomenal Hammering Hank, ie. Hank Aaron.
************************************************** ******
Here comes Ted Williams: "The greatest hitter who ever lived"
See posts #2, #3 and #5 below.
Post #5 contains an interesting statistics comparison!
************************************************** *******
I would never vote for baseball players who used UNdetectable (or not) steroids,
UNdetactable HGH (Human Growth Hormone), and other illegal
(UNdetectable or detectable) substances/drugs.
By UNdetectable we mean substances which cannot be detected using a standard
urine test which is (sometimes) administered the MLB.
Four players on this poll apparently used all or some of the above illegal enhancements:
Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa and Rafael Palmeiro.
P.S.
Please keep coming back to this opening post
because I'll be adding some interesting stuff which
YOU will post or I'll find on my own.
