I get an argument regarding fitness today vs previous but if he played today he'd have today's fitness. Plus baseball is so much hand eye coordination which is purely natural skill that would translate regardless of era
Yeah this is what I came to say. He was 6'2'', 215 lbs so good size. The gift to be able to see the ball so well is something the game selects out for more than any other skill, and he obviously had that in spades.
I don't know how good he'd be but I think he could play. If you have extraordinary hand-eye coordination you can put the bat on any speed of pitching. He'd just need to see it enough times.
