August 9, 201214 yr Author From Fangraphs Career BA/OBP/BABIP.....(OBP-BA differentials): Boggs: 328/415/344 (+.087) Cobb: 366/433/378 (+.067)Carew: 328/393/359 (+.065)Puckett: 318/360/342 (+.042)Brock: 293/343/338 (+.040) Revere: 288/327/316 (+.039)Your math is bad. Brock's ISO Discipline is .050 (like I said) and Revere has raised his ISO Discipline almost ten points in the last few days. We'll see if it holds. Out of your list, that leaves Puckett. That's a pretty small list. No one is claiming that riding a high BABIP to the Hall of Fame is impossible. I'm only stating that it's incredibly unlikely. And we shouldn't even be talking about Cobb. There's nothing worth comparing between a dead ball era player and a modern player. The game is completely different.
