I dunno....he was a 40/40 ( 40 hr's & 40 sb's ) guy once.

And a feared hitter..for at least the first 8-10 years of his 17 yr. career. I think he had at least 6 seasons of over 100 rbi's....and hit over 450 hr's in his career also. Yeah, they are tainted stats..secondary to 'roids...but they are what they are.

I never "liked" the guy...cause he always seemed to do well against my team, the Angels.

I just cracked up...when I saw this article.

I live in C-town and watched him have that ball bounce off his head for a home run. I’m sure he had some years of untainted stats but a huge black cloud in my mind over his career...
I like the Angels this year. Love Vlad and Hunter and Figgins when he’s not hurt!

But he sucked as a pitcher.
