Hall of Fame hitters can hit speed & velocity.
The big thing for me is if those HOF'ers would've been able to hit the changeup that has been prominent since Pedro dominated. I have a feeling that they'd be able to hit them as well, since having a HOF batter's eye is an extremely unique advantage to have.
Some just get it...most don't.
I know they can hit it, but can they hit the 96-99 mph Fastball vs. the changeup, and can they hit it at a Mike Trout/Miguel Cabrera level? I seriously doubt it. Just my opinion though.

What makes you say that? baseball is a game of adjustments...I think they'd do just fine.
They'd be spitting chaw at curves and changeups before it even hit the catcher's mitt, just like the Miggys and Trouts of today.
