Never gonna happen.
Even if he can outright duplicate his first 9 years with the next 9 years, it will put him in eliete company, but certinly not put him beyone everyone. Should he be able to maintain a carear that is considered one of the best? I think so, but is it possible for him to claim 'best ever'? Not possible.

I should clarify. To me he could very will be the best hitter every by the team he retires, maybe not all-around player, but best hitter. The level of competition is so much better than that of the guys like Ruth had to face.

You make it sound like Pujols is not the best defensive first baseman in baseball....Jeff D said:I think we should be clear that we're talking offense only.
To compare his offense AND defense as a package to players such as Mays or Griffey is a joke.
