Greatest hitter ever?

Anybody have a guy with better career power stats?

.321 avg 799 hr 2400+ rbi not to mention 5time mvp and hit for a triple crown.

Nice - your guy got mine by one lousy dinger!
Lots more ribbies though.
I also have a pitcher who's over 500 wins - he's still going strong at age 43

That's pretty damn impressive, considering Cy Young's record seems to be one that will never be broken. Your guy must have averaged around 25 wins every year for his entire career.

Yeah really!! The most ive seen a pitcher have was...302, but he had 200 losses lol

I'll post his stats when he's done- age 45 and still a 4-star starter - 526 wins and counting.

Wow, this year or next he'll catch Juan Espinoza, who retired at age 45 with 538 wins, a lifetime 2.00 ERA, 3 perfect games, 3 more no-hitters (two of those would have been perfect except for a hit batsman) and three triple crowns, the last at age 42.

My best was my 1B who had a .322 career average, 657 career HRs, and was still going fairly strong at age 37 when he retired due to a career ending injury. He was starting to trail off (peaked at about 7/8/5 for contact/power/eye, and was down to about 7/6/4 when he retired), but I'd guess he would have another maybe 60-80 HR career without the injury. Not close to those other numbers above, but still pretty impressive.
