Bob Sacamano Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 The only time he ever really hits is when he's fat throughout his career. Anytime the Giants asked to lose weight, he'd come in to camp slimmed down and not hit and then get progressively fatter as the season went by. If he's released and only cost close to half a million, I'd take him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure which trade the Astros got hosed on more. The Astros gave up two really good hitting prospects in the Gomez trade but gave up some really nice young pitching in the Giles trade. Tough call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle Buffalo Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Every time the discussion of allowing steroid users into the HOF comes up, people argue that there's already known cheaters (Gaylord Perry) and bad guys (Ty Cobb) in the Hall. I heard an interesting interview on the Score (Rozner & Ostrowski - I think) with the author of a book that refutes almost everything we think we know about Ty Cobb.

I've always wondered why he isn't brought up as much as the rest of the steroid guys. Based on his pure numbers, he'd have to be a first ballot guy. Pretty well rounded career. Looking at the photos - man, I loved Will Clark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I just realized that if Adrian Beltre continues to hit like he has the past few years for 2 more years, he's gonna get to 3000 hits and about 80 WAR.
