Bonds for me, but that’s mostly because I watched him play most of his career.

Barry

Relative to their peers, Ruth. But his competition wasn't quite where the league was in the 50s onwards. Even then, the guy was a natural home run hitter, he'd be great in any era. Baseball has always been more skill-based anyway, lots of relatively slow unathletic guys play even as a non-designated hitters.

In a vacuum, easily early 2000s Bonds. Regardless of what was in his system those numbers are insane. I don't think it's possible to have a season where your player is on base over 60+% of the time in a video game, and yet he somehow did it in real life. Him and Williams had the GOAT batting eye

Its clearly Bonds

 

[malbaker86]

Bonds or A-Rod then Griffey.

 

[Cave Savage]

Baseball has been around soooo long that it's hard to answer a question like this. The sport has been in its "matured" form since like the 50s, if not earlier

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

Ruth because he could also pitch


As far as people I've seen with my own eyes Barry was the best hitter and A-rod was the best all around (gold glove shortstop hitting 50 Homers)

And Clemens for pitchers slightly ahead of Maddux

Clemens over Pedro?
