And...there are plenty of folks in the league that are undeniably juiced...and they can't hit like Barry. You don't like him. Fine. He's still good.

Bonds doesn't need to homerun mark to be the best hitter baseball has ever seen. All he needs is the endorsement of the previous best hitter baseball has ever seen. He has that. Hank said it just a couple months ago. So he is a jerk. He is still that good.

I'll still rate Ty Cobb and his .367 lifetime average in the era of a "non-juiced" ball as the best hitter ever. lincoln "Windows XP has so many holes in its security that any reasonable user will conclude it was designed by the same German officer who created the prison compound in "Hogan's Heroes." - Andy Ihnatko, Chicago Sun-Times [link\|mailto:bconnors@ev1.net\|contact me]

[link\|http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/history/mlb_negro_leagues_profile.jsp?player=smith_chino\|Chino Smith]: When Smith hit .341, as a rookie, he was just getting started. He hit .439 while with Brooklyn in 1927. Then while with the New York Lincoln Giants, Smith hit .464 (with 23 homers) in 1929 and a .468 mark in 1930. Smith's sizzling stick was rarely stifled. Against Major League competition, he batted .405, and hit a homer in his first-ever at-bat. Barry Bonds may pass him in home runs, but Bonds is no [link\|http://www.brainyencyclopedia.com/encyclopedia/h/ha/hank_aaron.html\|Hank Aaron] - one of the last Negro League players to enter the Majors.

But who knows? If they had pitched to Barry, he may have hit .450. I don\ufffdt know.

Post #180,387 by ChrisR 10/21/04 10:00:56 PM Reply	I always thought Rod Carew was the best hitter from the point of view that he didn't have power to put the ball out of the park, so he had to be a batting strategist.
