I've always heard Ruth was about 6'1 or 6'2 and around 215-220ish during his peak physically. I'm not sure how he would hold up against some of the freak athletes nowadays. I know he struggled w/ eating, drinking, and smoking. Over time, I am not sure he would be able to consistently produce great numbers w/ the type of athlete today.
BUT.. Look it up. He was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Much better than everyone else when he played its not even close. NO athlete can say this[Maybe Wayne]

Touche. But when I usually think of G.O.A.T., I like to imagine how he/she would have faired against athletes at any time during their respective sport's history.
