An what jumps out at me is he is only a 2 time All Star...Now I know the fans are idiots....but the man hit .354 for the Mets in 1998 and was not an All-Star...plus the 3 Gold Gloves are nice....but I could swear he'd have 5-7 ...he was really that good... If he stays healthy and on a good team he could approach 1400 RBI which is an exceptional number...he's got 1200 now...I beleive there is only 1 player w/ 1500 RBI that is not in the HOF -Tony Perez...That may have changed over the years.... |

That surprised me too. I can't believe he wasn't an allstar in '98. :wtf: You can never really count on fans to make the right call though, I mean, Nomar was the leading vote getter at SS for a while this season and he hadn't even played a game. |

Perez was voted in about 5 years ago. He complained for so long that they finally let him in. |

There's a reason he wasn't voted in as a starter in '98. That was McGwire's 70 HR season, and people dig the long ball. |
