jasonxctf Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 saw a list of the Top 500 HR Hitters of All-Time, based upon # of HR's.

BigEdWalsh Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 You forgot Roy Sievers and Greg Luzinski though it's ok with me not to include Santo and Sosa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonxctf Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 its hard to believe that Kenny Lofton is the 493rd best HR hitter of all-time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCSox Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Apr 21, 2008 -> 08:53 AM) 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The all-time HR list ain't what it used to be. But Jose is an all-time great. Perhaps greater than Yount and Goslin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
