This might shock you, but Griffey eats babies. It was a big concern for the team what with Buehrle having a kid about every two years now. Kids on the Reds were just too young to care.

Didn't he try to devour Cueto?

I've always been confused at how people thought Griffey Jr. was going to be a clubhouse cancer with the Sox? It's like people are surprised he was a good clubhouse guy. When he was in Cincinnati, every one of their young outfielders said how amazing Griffey Jr. was with them.

Who said that? I never heard anything like that.

People actually thought he'd be a cancer? Griffey is considered to be one of the best clubhouse guys in the game. Who doesn't love the kid?

 

Griffey is said to have whined a lot about diminishing press coverage when A-Rod began to steal his thunder in Seattle. That most likely followed him around for a while.

There's been different mentions in the media leading up to this series about how no one knew what to expect with him in the clubhouse. Even when the trade was made, there was some worries he might not fit in with the team.

Ick, that's very old news. That's pretty ridiculous, talk about grasping at straws.

Maybe it's because I am a big Griffey fanboy and I've had a huge mancrush on him since I was like 12, but I never heard anything about him being bad in the clubhouse.

Reputations sometimes follow people around for a while. I never head anything negative about Griffey during his Cincy days.
