How so? It makes perfect sense.
Think about MLB for example. Do you honestly think that Babe Ruth would have been half of the hitter he was if he spent his career facing pitchers like Cici Sabathia, Randy Johnson, Clemens, or Maddux?
With growing popularity, the sport has seen a larger talent pool develop, with the talent getting better on both the high end and low end.
The players today are facing much stiffer competition than those in the past. It's pretty simple to me.
