Here's my latest, a case for Albert Pujols as the greatest of all time. Please give it a read and let me know what you think. Thanks

Hey Mike,

Lou Gehrig has somehow been forgotten amongst the game’s immortals, even though he was possibly even more of a reason for the success of Ruth’s 1927 Yankees. Read about the quiet, forgotten leader of “Murderer’s Row,” Henry Lou Gehrig.

Thanks in advance!
