Re: MLB Off-Topic
Can't believe what I just read in those two articles.

Also, I had no idea he was a career .290 hitter, especially given the "meh" seasons in Anaheim.

Re: MLB Off-Topic
I guess you can learn things from play by play guys in old games.

Never realized that in 1993 when Olerud,Molitor,Alomar finished top 3 in batting average that they were the first group of teammates to do that since fittingly enough the Phillies (the team they beat in the WS)...exactly 100 years prior!

Look out 2093 Blue Jays, you guys got your hands filled against the next big trio.

I think I said it before but I'll say it again, John Kruk really looks like he'd be an early 90s wrestler. Like a Duke the Dumpster type of guy.

And Randy Johnson was almost a Blue Jay! Would've had him until 98? Not just would they have won 93WS, imagine the future there. Maybe even Hentgen,Clemens and Johnson on that 97 team?

One of four players with 3000+ hits and 10+ Gold Gloves.
Another crazy stat I heard on the Starting 9 podcast.

Al Kaline is the only player to hit 300+ home runs and never hit 30 in a season. And the only two seasons in his 22-year career that he didn't hit double digit home runs were his age-18 and age-19 seasons.

Wasn’t Covid related just to throw that out there. Apparently he had a long time health issue

Re-watching the 05 playoff run by the Jays. What could have been if they had a legit ace on the pitching staff?

Favorite all-time Blue Jay?

I'm going with Carlos Delgado.
