Not like he was the only one. He was just the best of them .. he would have been an exceptional player anyways ... just ook at him with Pittsburgh .. I actually liked watching him more then .. when he played real baseball instead of swing for the fence baseball.
Very true, he used to be the true definition of a great baseball player til he got puffed up on juice and started banging em out of the park. He's within reach of the home run record, but unless they put him on the field somewhere, he won't get many at bats, aside from pinch hitting or dh in interleague games. He may not even want to break it now anyway, probably figuring it would be scrutinized by the steriods scandal. Then he may retire and try to slide under the radar, like Big Mac.
Then, hopefully, we won't have to see that clip of him licking his bat on Sportscenter for the gazillionth time. #-o
