lifetime BA arguement only 7 points


So what? 7 points is still considerable especially over 22 seasons and the fact the many of his hits and his .BA were "enhanced" with some "help"

You wanna bring up OPS abd I'll bring up total bases...almost 900 more.

Do I really think he "flushes Bonds career numbers down the toilet"? ...not really...I was making and somewhat exaggerated reponse to the moronic use of cherry picking seaons and then telling me the pre-roids Bonds "shits all over Aaron"

A GOAT arguement can be made for Bond (if you want to ignore cheating which clearly you want to do)Ruth and Aaron...just think Hank gets short changed in many of these discussions.

Hank does because he wasn't flashy... He was consistent but he only led league in home runs 4 times over 23 seasons, 4 times he led league in RBI, twice he led the league in average.


Again you bring up total bases, Aaron played in 312 more games with 2157 more AT Bats almost 4 seasons worth more.
