It’s impossible to accurately measure today’s players against yesterday’s players so we can only measure them against the players of their own era. Ruth stands alone in terms of dominance of his era.

Today's players are stronger and faster than ever, but nowhere as dominant v. their peers as Ruth. Players are still chasing his stats 100 years later. Comparison v ones peers is the best way to measure their greatness.

Babe Ruth clearly the greatest of all time. Heck he had a Candy Bar named after him and it is delicious ⚾️⚾️

So didn't Reggie Jackson . In Jackson's case the candy bar was lousy

Ruth didn’t take steroids like Ohtani, and many other athletes of today are currently doing

Is there any evidence Ohtani has taken steroids ? Not a criticism, I just have not heard that before

Look at him. He’s huge. Much bigger than he used to be. My guess is he started taking steroids to help post Tommy John’s surgery to recover.
