It's too bad there are many pictures of Ruth in his twilight years as a pudgy old guy in the 30's and relatively few from his 1920's prime. For most of his career as an ace pitcher and feared slugger, he was nothing at all like Ortiz, he was an incredibly strong and fit guy like Trout.
Most folks don't realize Ted Williams would have amassed >160 WAR, right up there with Ruth and Barry "The Clear" Bonds if he didn't fight in WWII missing 3 of his prime years.
