Sandy Koufax
Terrible arm problems shortened his still brilliant career.
Mickey Mantle
How he accomplished what he did with the worst knees in the history of the world is somewhat remarkable.
Andre Dawson
Wasn't as great as Mick, but had about as many leg issues.
Who ya got? #nb4GregOden

Right, but each were hampered by injuries at some point in time. If Mickey Mantle had been as healthy as say, Willie Mays, would his numbers have been better?

Ted Williams, imagine if he never went to war. It would be a legit debate between him and the Babe for GOAT.

What makes you think he wasn't healthy in his prime? His knees gave out on him towards then but that doesn't mean they weren't good when he was dominating.
Also to answer the question I'll say Shaun Livingston
