his stats: BA .358 HR 301 RBI 1584 Production 1011 Production= OBP+SLG
 
I agree with Craig S. He'd be somewhere between 6 and 10 although I would put him above Wagner. Probably about 7th.

Ruth, Williams, Cobb, Mays, Gehrig, Aaron, Hornsby
 
Among position players, I'd have him in the second half of my top ten. Ruth, Cobb, Wagner, Gehrig and Williams all come ahead of him but he falls into the next five. It's always tough to compare across generations, but his numbers compared to those of his peer group were impressive. He could do it all at the plate.

As for the first couple of answers, I have to wonder why people like that are even in the baseball forum.
