I've wondered if it was worth it trying to learn from the old timers. So you think they were as good of hitters as todays players? I don't think so. I know the ptiching was not as strong. Does that mean the hitting wasn't either?
Wouldn't you agree that you have to be better today to play in the majors than you did back then?
And then the next question... Would yesterday's heroes even make the squads today?
Don't get mad, just discussion.
