its hard to believe that Kenny Lofton is the 493rd best HR hitter of all-time.

 

Or that Mike Cameron ranks 216th. Chicago must not have had enough steroids dealers back in the late '90s.

249 HRs for Valentin surprised me.

That he's sandwiched in between some all-time greats like Goose Goslin and Robin Yount is kinda weird for sure. The all-time HR list ain't what it used to be.

and he was sandwiched between great hitters the majority of his career, meaning more fast ball opportunities.

 

Thomas,Konerko,Lee,Maggs were just some of those great hitters he played with.

But Jose is an all-time great. Perhaps greater than Yount and Goslin.
