Your point is quite valid, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clujer420 Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Let the guy have 50 or so AB before you start declaring that he's still got something left. Remember Lofton last year? He started off like gangbusters, but quickly fizzled out. I think this GUARANTEED 1st ballot HOF, and best leadoff hitter ever, will do the same.

But the spark he provides, MAY just be what was needed to wake up the rest of the lineup. If that happens, they won't be quite as dependent on him.

Jim Fainter Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I always thought Ricky got a bad rap that day when he broke the SB record and announced that he "was the greatest of all times." I think he just got a liitle emotional and mis-spoke. He had a great career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bighurt52235 Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I still like to watch Rickey do his thing, and I wouldn't mind if he was doing on a regular basis at the Cell. I'm just really surprised that it took the All-Star Break before someone gave him a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
