Analysis: Babe Ruth is no longer on the list; however, Ted Williams and Stan Musial are. This decade is full of a select bunch of Hall of Famers, but lacks the surplus of big names that are in the coming decades. It’s official that catchers were now seen as power hitters rather than all-around contributors as they were in the early days of baseball. Bob Feller’s 1946 season may have been the best ever season by a pitcher of all time.
Any other players left off that you disagree with? Let me hear it in the comments section below.
