Baseball is different in that it is all skill, things that can be learned or adjusted to. If Ruth or Mays or another great stepped out of a time machine today, they'd be amazed at the depth of today's pitching, but would be fine after a period of adjustment.
sure baseball may be different in some regards, but training methods, weigh lifting, youth leagues, etc are far better now. Athletes, as a whole, are just a different specimen than they were in the 1920s

Your average player is better today, no doubt. But a GOAT level player of the past would still be productive today, after acclimating to today's pitching.
