Griffey was the same way on the Sox, even though most knew he was well past his prime..Frank Thomas early in his career was like that but not to the level Griffey was. Griffey and Ichiro r prob the 2 most exciting players to watch in the last 10 yrs, along with Bonds (b4 we all knew he was on steroids)
