My all time fav! Played his entire career with injuries. He still put up outstanding numbers with half the atbats as most hall of famers. He lost about 5 seasons during his time injured. Like he said and I agree if not injured he would had 600 homers and batting close to .300 instead of the great .295 career he did. Also over 2,000 rbis for sure. He was not a good outfielder but was not horrific and had a strong arm. Many didn’t know He was a Pitcher and then started playing CF for the Rangers before going to LF then RF. Many shit on him and immediately link him with that mysterious bag a hitting caoch threw him under the bus with. Not confirmed if they were steroids and He and Magglio Ordoñez have begged to test them anytime and they never did.
