He's turning just 29, after all these years, and IMO he's back in the discussion.

Yeah, it's a good call. He's at 40 WAR at age 29, averaging right around 5 WAR per 162 games played. Four more years of that gets you right around Vald Sr, Ichiro, Abreu, Sheffield range (likely HOF range). A little more gets you closer to "sure thing" territory. He's got 266 career HR, so 500 isn't out of the question.

Recent win so not in hand yet.
I remember Joe's World Series game winning home run vividly so it's great to have his RC finally.

Thanks.

I was watching 4 end last night and although this wasn't the most sought after one, I thought it was the best centered one, at least left to right.
Surprisingly, one, that wasn't the best centered copy, imo, finished a bit higher.
Maybe they seen something I didn't?

Either way, I am real happy with this one even though it isn't in hand yet.
