Would you rather average .400 for a season or hit 70 homers for a season?

.400

70 has been done in the last 2 decades...400, not so much.

400 has a very specific appeal to me given it goes all the way back to Ted Williams. I am not a huge guy anyway so fuck it, let's go for 400.

for me, it is easily 70... 70 HRs also has a guarantee of 60+ walks... .400 does not have a guarantee for anything...

70 also guarantees 70 runs scored and 70 RBI's ... I just feel you have to have more info. 70HR with a .200 batting average is a lot less impressive than 40HR with a .400 batting average.

An OBP of .400 or better is pretty fucking good, and you're gonna be guaranteed at least that if you hit .400.

But with that said, give me the dingers. Chicks dig the long ball.

.400, because I feel like getting 70 dingers and you will be taking a lot more "Random" drug tests

I'd rather hit .3996824324501 and let them round it off ... and then hit 4 home runs in the 7th game of the World Series.

No one has hit 0.400 since they broke the color barrier. Turns out it’s hard to do when you’re facing the best pitchers available rather than some washed up pig farmers. Also why the records from that era are a joke.
