There were 14 teams in the 1920's. There were less than 400 players. The NBA and NFL did not attract the best players back then resulting in more players going out for teams. Balls were not replaced as much as today. Ruth and Ohtani are both amazing players and would be amazing no matter what era they played in.

[@tonywong8134]

The nba and NFL didn't even exist in the 1920s.

@tonywrong the nfl did exist in the 1920s with its first year in 1920 (although it was under a different name when it first started but wasn’t long before it changed its name to the nfl)

[@TheDondajonhon46]

That does not take anything away from Ruth's legacy. You play the competition that is in front of you.

[@tommyfu9271]

And? The player pool was almost entirely drawn from people who happened to live near baseball cities and from only white players. Read about how players back then got signed. A scout would happen to see them in some farm league in the cities near where their mlb team played. They weren't scouting or developing the best of the best from all over. 100 years ago most players were white farmers who didn't train year round for baseball. Today we draw from all over the world. It's hilarious to think players back then are better than today's players. In any sport measures in time distance or speed people who won gold metals in 1920 couldn't win a high school competition today. But magically that doesn't apply to baseball?

Ohtani is already easily in GOAT conversations, and 100% the most talented player the game has ever seen. Whereas Mook is just a hall of famer which is still great, but hes not a goat level player.

This is just empty chatter that keeps going off the rails. Ohtani is a special athlete as well as the most spectacular two-way player MLB has ever seen. He's already earned his own room at the Hall of Fame. Mookie Betts is a great player but was asked recently who he would put on his Mt Rushmore of baseball players of all time. He named Ohtani as the only current player to be there. And let David Justice know, Ohtani can play the field as well. He's done it in the past. But he would only go there if he's unable to pitch again.
