Also, he was washed up at 35 and played just 12 full seasons.
If you like Hernandez, put in John Olerud, too.

Olerud....3 GGs..... Hernandez 11.
I know people poo poo GGs when it comes to certain positions but I am of the opinion that unless you played that position in the pros, a person has no right to poo poo a GG at any position.
Olerud was great, as was Will Clark.
