    Na, I would say the best hitter of all time, regardless

                Because there hasn't been a hitter who hits for so much power and such a great average as Pujols and has done it so consistently

                    Babe Ruth had a career .342 average.
                    Ted Williams batted .344.
                    Lou Gehrig batted .340.

                                                It's quite obvious to me now that you're trolling.

                                                The above is exactly what you said about Albert Pujols, yet when we show you men that have done it better, you come up with that response?

                                                Words of advice, lots of mods like baseball.

                                                    Say i'm trolling all you want, I think Pujols is a MUCH better hitter than anyone who has played the game.

                                                    Babe Ruth and such was good for his TIME, but in no way is he a better hitter than Pujols.

                                                    Weaker pitching, shorter fences etc.

                                                        What I love most about Pujols and what really puts him into "one of the best hitters ever" category for me is his approach to hitting. The dude is a straight up robot. He's so deliberate and calculated, it's unreal.

                                                        Were hitters like Ruth, Gehrig, Williams, etc as cyborg-esque in their approach?

                                                            Okay so why didn't you say that before when it was asked? You simply said no one has done what he's done. We proved that wasn't true. Now it's era and ballparks.

                                                            What are you gonna use next when we disprove ballparks being smaller or use the increase in offense as arguments against Pujols?

                                                            You can have an opinion but it behooves me how someone can leave out reasons for their opinion and then get defensive when it's disproven.
