Do you think anyone will ever hit .400 again? Why or why not?

I think so.

Tony Gwynn hit .394 in 1994. I think that Ichiro has a couple of more shots at it (assuming his slow start this year is just a slump and nothing more). I still think that Pujols is going to get BETTER, and he could challenge .400.

There are very, very few records in baseball that I consider "unbreakable". The only such records are ones that were set in an era so different that the environment that the record was set in can not be duplicated (like 500 wins for a pitcher).

Great, I've added a poll to a second thread. Please vote.
