Who's the greatest HR hitter of all-time?

Obviously there's no comparison to Barry. And, I have no clue if Albert is ON or not. The cynic in me tells me the majority of these big guys are ON though.

I doubt he is taken steroids... Not to say I'm a great HR hitter at the pro level like Pujols, but I guarantee you if I was in the show, people would say I'm juicin bigtime. Some people are just built stacked... 5 years of weight training could certainly have gotten him where he is. I know in five years time I would be a lot bigger than Albert is now. Shit, in 2 years tops...

I'd say right now that the Babe is the greatest. Remember, he also started his career as a pitcher.

You should have Albert Pujols on that list. He's not the greatest yet, but he is going to be, barring a major injury, the best hitter of all time. And he is clean.

If the other option wasn't up he'd be there. Right now, he doesn't crack that list...

The pitching today is not as good as it was in the 60's or the 70's.
Right now they will take any bum who can throw left handed.

I have to say the Babe.
The ball was deader, the parks were bigger, it was OK to bean a hitter.....

Just for comparison. If the season ended today, he'd be averaging 41 homers per year. That's six years, including his rookie year. He's also a career .331 hitter. Bonds never hit over 40 hr in one year until his 8th year.

Pujols will break the all time HR record IF he stays healthy and chooses to play long enough. Ken Griffey Jr. would have gotten there had he not been injured for so many years in Cinci. I'm sure he's shaking his head right now.

It's not always about pure size. You need to remember these guys are always on the road. Training like a "normal" person is not easy. I believe a lot of these guys take "supps" to help recover not necessarily build muscle. I still believe the majority of these guys as well as NFL boys are using HGH. Considering there's no test for it.

No news about anyone would really suprise me anymore.

I'm with you dude... He just needs to keep getting it done. It's too early imo.
