Let's talk about Will Clark. Where does he rank in your mind?

I consider him the undisputed GOAT and anyone who disagrees can snort the hair off sweaty monkey balls.
Sweetest swing in history.
Most feared batter in the clutch of ALL TIME.
Didn't roid up.
GOAT college baseball player
First hit was a HR off Nolan Ryan
Could have easily broken every record in the books had baseball (and not being a good ole baw) been his one true obsession.

Will Clark was one of the better hitters in MLB. not the undisputed or disputed GOAT.
calling him the greatest smacks of extreme bias. if you just casually review the history of baseball you will agree with me. do the names ernie banks, ty cobb, mel ott, babe ruth, tony guinn strike a bell? imo, will clark is not in their league but he was close

I always heard he was less than pleasant to be around.

Everyone in 'Thunder and Lightning' definitely made him out to be kind of a douche.

played with 10-20 bone chips in his elbow for a large portion of his career, dropped his power numbers and likely cost him a HOF spot.

He's the guy you love if he's fighting for you and probably hate if he's against you. He can talk shite with the best of them.

I didn't mind him until I watched "Thunder and Lightning"
He was a total dick.

Well at least theunknownknight's favorite baseball player isn't a rapist.
Posted on 8/10/16 at 7:27 pm to King of New Orleans
Even in his interviews for that documentary he just gives off a huge douche vibe

He was my favorite player growing up, maybe even across all sports, but to say he was anywhere near the level of an Ernie banks or other all time player is laughable.

I've been around him quite a bit, and he is an awesome guy. Granted, all my experiences with him were well past his playing days, and situations that had nothing to do with baseball. Extremely nice, and cool as hell.

He was my hero as a kid. Favorite player ever.

Lives near me, always see him at the grocery store scooping up cases of Coors Light

gosh, I was a Giants fan and I don't see him as even in the conversation of greatest of all time.
Barry was a great hitter too and Barry was a great fielder. Barry was every bit as good as Clark, all told, and I mean to include fielding, when he was slim in Pittsburgh. No doubt he dealt with the hamstring pull he got stealing 2nd with PEDs. From then on, it was cheating. Before cheating, he was still better than Clark.

Kevin Mitchell was better than him

now to ranking
Hank Aaron
Robinson
Stan Musial
Ted Williams.
I saw all those guys play.
All better than Clark and I saw Mays and Mantle.
This is just outfielders
Mays
Mantle
Aaron
Ernie Banks as a shortstop hit 50
Robinson was MVP of both leagues.
come on, man.
Clark.

He's from Metairie right?
Where does he live now?
Does he work? I'm sure he doesn't have to.
