Saying that someone may be end up the greatest baseball player off all time, but that isn't much else, when being the greatest player of all time is enough imo is that point.

Being the greatest baseball player of all time does not equal being a World Series champion, DUCY?

LOL. Its called EV dude. Seriously. Having aces does not equal winning the pot either.

The probability of all past events is 1.0. EV has nothing to do with it.
The greatest player is the one who has achieved the greatest performances. The only quibble is what the definition of greatest performance is, whether it involves having won a championship. A player who hits 250 homeruns in a season but doesn't win a championship can not go back and argue that his 250 homeruns is more likely to have won his team a championship, unless he has a time machine.
If you ask me what hand I want tomorrow, it will be aces. If you ask me what hand I wanted yesterday, it may not be aces.
