Lol!
I usually kill threads. This time I've incited a riot!
It's easy to see that Youk is the better all around player. Especially with all the new metrics to support the opinion. However, Youk is a very good defensive 1st baseman. Scott was spectacular. Most people who saw him play would acknowledge that. It's just not debatable.
And while Scotts OBP and OPS probably would not measure up to Youk's, he was a valuable part of the Sox offense and a "feared' hitter in his day. Again, having not seen him play, it would be difficult to understand this. I guess.
