CN,

That's interesting, you knew Craig from way back. However, what you said is not that surprising considering the type of ballplayer he turned out to be. Biggio is the thinking man's ballplayer and excels at "small ball," he does all the little things that don't necessary show up in the boxscore.

For instance he avoids grounding into double plays. He gets on base often and is normally among the leaders in getting hit by the pitch. He's good at laying down bunts.

Biggio's thoughtful approach to his career, is the same type of approach he uses when he's out on the baseball diamond.
