Your opinions mean nothing to me anymore
Josh Gibson is also "estimated" to have hit 948 home runs in his career. But factor in the word "estimated" because they kept no records in the negro leagues it was all done mostly by the players themselves or fans. It also includes a lot of legend and lore, especially back in the 30's and 40's when players were gods to the public.
In my honest opinion there shouldnt have even been a vote, gagne shoulda just been handed it before the playoffs even started.
Further more my statement which you quoted wasn't an opinion it's fact. I have read much about the Negro leagues and find it sad that we will never trully know how great the MLB players trully were because of segragation in the sport. But in the off season MLB Players did Play the Negro League players, they played upwards of 40 times over the years that were recorded and The Negro Leagues won more than they lost.
