  Rube Bressler Redux? from The Hardball Times
The third of the four was Rube Bressler, who debuted for Connie Mack’s Philadelphia A’s on April 24, 1914 and would be the sensation of the American League that year, much like Ankiel was for the Cardinals 86 years later.
My view is that these transitions essentially ended after the war not because of the relative value of offense and defense but rather because of the increasing level of play that comes closer to the "right wall" of human ability, coupled with the stabilization of the game itself.
For players like Ruth, Wood, Bressler and company there was therefore more opportunity to make the transition because good athletes of their ilk could more easily excel beyond the more numerous lesser athletes that populated baseball in the early part of the century.

 OOTP Developments Forums - Need your help with creating the Revised DB for Lahman 5.0 (a.k.a. AnkitDB)
Some of the other players that fall in this category are Rube Bressler, Nixey Callahan, Johnny Cooney, Erv Dusak, Kid Gleason, Hal Jeffcoat, Watty Lee, Johnny O'Brien, Cy Seymour, Elmer Smith, Willie Smith, and quite a few player from the pre-Modern Era baseball.
Also, as you might have guessed, unlike my previous DB, I will not delete entries for those that played prior to 1901, because there are quite a few of you who like to replay the 1870s and 1880s and 1890s and feel that you guys would benefit from my DB.
Because I really didn't want to do too much research into the players that are in this catagory, there were the 2 you mentioned (Ruth, Wood) that really stuck out (Rube Bressler would probably be a third one), and that I didn't want ot gip them one way or the other.
