| Better overall player, Piazza.
Better hitter, Piazza.
Better fielder, either not that great but since Canseco was so lousy, edge to Piazza.
About the only area that Canseco has the edge is in power. But I'll take Piazza's power along with his average any day over a free swinging roid freak.

| This isn't even a debate when you take positional adjustments into account.
