Players who had at least a 200 OPS+ over 3 seasons with 1,000 + PAs

I got all the data from Baseball Reference and Stathead. I had Stathead call up all the guys in the AL/NL in each age group starting from 17-19, 18-20 up to 42-44 who fit the criteria. They are in the table below. After that I mention a few guys who just missed. 

Here are the 8 hitters. In the table some of them are listed more than once if they had more than one span (and some of those overlap).

Aaron Judge
Babe Ruth
Barry Bonds
Dan Brouthers
Mickey Mantle
Rogers Hornsby
Ted Williams
