Offensive production in baseball requires looking beyond batting average to on-base percentage and slugging — the components of OPS that most completely capture a hitter's value across a full career.

With categories split evenly, this comparison ultimately comes down to which statistics matter most to you. Dylan Beavers claims the tiebreaker through Home Runs advantage — a 225% edge — but reasonable people can, and do, argue both sides of this MLB debate.
