Rice had 352 more RBI and 160 more HR playing only 2 more years. I am also still convinced taht if Hrbek and Mattingly had swapped teams, we would be talking about Hrbek instead of Mattingly.
I still don't understand how people can pass over Lee Smith. Ever year that passes just proves what an amazing career he had. Relievers have become like RBs in the NFL, they can expect to have about a 5 year career. If you can make it 10 years, you are on the verge of greatness for that position.

I saw weird stuff in that place last night. Weird, strange, sick, twisted, eerie, godless, evil stuff. And I want in.
