103 mph screwball Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I wonder how Griffey would do as a hitting coach someday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Sox Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Junior is one of the all time greats and a sure HOFer. Like Carlton and Seaver, I'm glad he got to spend some time with the Sox... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiddleCoastBias Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 QUOTE (103 mph screwball @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 07:45 AM) I wonder how Griffey would do as a hitting coach someday? I want to imagine he would be awesome, but you can't teach the awesomeness that is his swing. His smooth mechanics are unparalleled from the left side of the plate. But yes, I do think he would be a great influence in teaching patience and the 'hitter's eye' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABearSoX Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 QUOTE (JFields27 @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 07:07 AM) I just wanted to add my love. Griffey was my favorite player growing up, I read everything about him. I like to think him and jim thome will be two players that go to the Hall of Fame that we know for sure did not do anything illegal to there bodies. Frank Thomas (remember him?)

bjm676 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 It's nice to know that when he's enshrined in Cooperstown with his Seattle hat, his plaque will say "Chicago, AL 2008" on it. That's pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for him, though. He'll still look chiseled on his statue. Edited August 12, 2009 by PlaySumFnJurny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll still look chiseled on his statue. Staring at the pitcher with the bat bouncing on his shoulder. Standing very, very tall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I can't help but think, that Baines should have had the same career . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 It's too bad we never got to see Frank charge the mound. The pitcher would have s*** his pants on site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
