.400 again?

[Omar 382]

Nope. It happened a bunch of times back before the color barrier was broken and the guy pitching the ball was on a break from his regular job as a plumber, but it will never happen again. The pitching talent is too good and the strategies have changed to neutralize good hitters. It's also why it's ridiculously stupid to try to compare players against eras. Ty Cobb would get his racist ass handed to him in today's game. He sure as shit wouldn't hit over 0.400.

No, maybe not, but then if he played in today's game he probably would hit 35 or 40 home runs every year

Miggy. If he can stay healthy. Even with the power. He could get close.

At one point I thought late '90s/early '00s Nomar had a shot.... but nay.
