Is Albert Pujols the Greatest Hitter of All-Time?

[abncollectsautos]

[quote="Anthony K.":2i90wtf2]Ted. Williams.

Bat .400, then come talk to me.

+1


And he missed years due to the war. Easily would have had over 600 HR's.

i think he missed a little time because of two wars. pujols hasnt accomplished anything yet. hit 400, get a triple crown, 73 hr's, something big

Nearly 5 years isn't "a little time". That's a significant amount of time.

Williams missed all of 1943, 44, and 1945 and almost all of 1952 and 53 due to military service.[/quote:2i90wtf2]
cool. wish more people then and now would volunteer to help their country.

Greatest hitter all time

well since Bonds' name was been brought up ill take him as the greatest hitter of all time for the years 2001 , 2002, 2003, 2004. Ruth's greatest stretch was not better then Bonds'. Steroid induced? Yes. But the stats all count. During this stretch Bonds was the greatest hitter of all time. If they actually pitched to him in 01 and 02 he could have hit 100 Homeruns.

Bonds during this run would break the all time base on balls record held by Ruth of 170. Bonds had 177 in 01
198 in 02
232 in 04 and 120 that were intentional.
If they pitched to him he would have EASILY hit 70 HR every season and would have had 100 one of those years. That how insane he was. Ruth was GREAT and he was a LEGEND, but they NEVER intentionally walked Ruth with the Bases Loaded but They did for Bonds.

Ted Williams, without a second thought.

Greatest hitter all time

well since Bonds' name was been brought up ill take him as the greatest hitter of all time for the years 2001 , 2002, 2003, 2004. Ruth's greatest stretch was not better then Bonds'. Steroid induced? Yes. But the stats all count. During this stretch Bonds was the greatest hitter of all time. If they actually pitched to him in 01 and 02 he could have hit 100 Homeruns.

Not an exaggeration. If he hadn't been walked - obviously not a realistic idea - once in 2001, using his HR rate he would have hit 99.68 HR's.

Also he only played 153 games, 9 more games at that rate and he is well over 100.

 

[Topnotchsy]

I wouldn't say so yet, but I do think that Pujols has reached a point in his career when he is actually underrated by many. Guess is just unreal.

Williams story is incredible, and I recently heard that one of his flying mates in the war also called him (I'm paraphrasing, don't remember the actual words) "the greatest pilot of all time."

 

[KOBEARODLT]

I personally don't think statistics/honors before blacks/non-whites were allowed to play mean very much. I base most of my "all-time great" opinions relative to AFTER segregation was abolished in baseball... It is the only way it can make sense, in my opinion.

yeah your right...cobb,ruth,honus wagner and so on sucked. (being sarcastic if you didnt already get that)

and as for a name that has not been thrown in the mix for best hitter of all time...JOSH GIBSON, we will never know exactly what his stats were or how good he would have been if he wouldnt have died at the age of 35 only three months before robinson broke into th mlb.

BONDS 2001- 02-03 - 04

Bonds during this run would break the all time base on balls record held by Ruth of 170. Bonds had 177 in 01
198 in 02
232 in 04 and 120 that were intentional.
If they pitched to him he would have EASILY hit 70 HR every season and would have had 100 one of those years. That how insane he was. Ruth was GREAT and he was a LEGEND, but they NEVER intentionally walked Ruth with the Bases Loaded but They did for Bonds.

pete14rose, seems all you want to do is contradict what i say. i stand by what i said but ill state it differently in case i confused you. i know lots of people did it then and understand most of them did. i wish more players since the korean war would have done it. more people (players included) should serve in the military. im glad ted williams gave up his time to serve his country, very honorable.

 

[hive17]

Ted Williams.

I think this board has agreed to the tune of 80%

 

[scotty21690]

I can't put Bonds on my list because of the whole roids thing. I just can't.


With that said Teddy Ballgame has a higher: Batting Average, BB/K ratio, OBP, SLG%, OPS than Bonds, and that's with missing nearly 5 seasons...he was incredible.

I know Scotty doesn't like Rose on my list, but I've gotta put him there.


Top 5 in no particular order:

Cobb
Rose
Williams
Gwynn
Carew

You have Cobb and Williams on your list, so you are excused.

Greatest hitter all time

well since Bonds' name was been brought up ill take him as the greatest hitter of all time for the years 2001 , 2002, 2003, 2004. Ruth's greatest stretch was not better then Bonds'. Steroid induced? Yes. But the stats all count. During this stretch Bonds was the greatest hitter of all time. If they actually pitched to him in 01 and 02 he could have hit 100 Homeruns.

I don't see how you can call Bonds the greatest hitter of all-time and then add the caveat that you are looking only at 4 isolated years.

He had some of the greatest seasons in history. Yes.
He was one of the most feared hitters of all-time. Yes.
He was walked intentionally with the bases loaded in a 2-run game. Yes.

But, if you look at his numbers career-wide, he doesn't compare as a hitter to Ruth or Williams or any hitters on that level. Perhaps, he should've won 4 straight MVP's. Perhaps, he would've had a few more homeruns if he had a lineup around him and if he didn't have to bat at Candlestick. But, I still don't think he is close to the top 5 best hitters ever.

Now, I do think he is one of the greatest (perhaps THE greatest) all-around player to play the game when you factor in Gold Gloves and speed. But, that's a separate conversation.

I read a fun fact that when the U.S. entered WWII, 98% of the professional baseball players enlisted. Really speaks to the charactor of that generation.

im not to smart on some of the vintage players. quick question, how many times did cobb hit 400? several wasnt it?

I'll add these World Series stats:

G AB R H 2B 3B HR GS RBI BB IBB SO SH SF HBP GIDP AVG OBP SLG
7 25 2 5 0 0 0 0 1 5 1 5 0 0 0 0 .200 .333 .200

G AB R H 2B 3B HR GS RBI BB IBB SO SH SF HBP GIDP AVG OBP SLG
7 17 8 8 2 0 4 0 6 13 7 3 0 0 0 0 .471 .700 1.294

For those who say Bonds isn't the guy they would want up there game seven of the world series bases loaded two outs down by one.

 

[MOFNY]

It's Babe Ruth, and I don't see anyone topping him. Even now I would put A-Rod ahead of Pujols.
