Terry Leach and Wade Boggs, one of the best hitters ever!

Currently my favorite Twins player. Max Kepler. He can be clutch when it is needed.

Well Eastern Time it is midnight, 25 days left!
Jim Thome!
A prolific power hitter, Thome hit 612 home runs during his career—the eighth-most all time—along with 2,328 hits, 1,699 runs batted in (RBI), and a .276 batting average. He was a member of five All-Star teams and won a Silver Slugger Award in 1996. HOF member in 2018.

Danny Heep.
Helped the Mets to a World Series Championship and a decent platoon player.

Tommy John
Ageless and was in the Majors for 26! years.
Hall of the Very Good? Yes!
Hall of Fame? I'll buy that too.

Germaniac · 03-01-2021, 11:17 AM

No matter what a lot of guys say - he would deserve to be in the Hall of Fame

Making his second appearance on the countdown...now batting for the Mariners...Ken...Griffey...Junior...

Westheim · 03-02-2021, 01:25 AM

Another LOLMets day in the countdown - after Willie Mays wore #24 for the Mets to close out his career, the number was only given out on special occasions, like for Rickey Henderson and for reviled scumbag Robinson Cano.

Oh, and for all-time legend Kelvin Torve in 1990. - Beg your pardon? - Kel-vin Tor-ve! - You seriously need to brush up your baseball knowledge if you never heard of all-time legend Kelvin Torve!

And yes, this is the best photo of him being unwittingly stuck into #24.

Germaniac · 03-02-2021, 02:01 AM

Come on, who doesn't remember Kelvin Torve?
If one player ever deserved to wear that number it was him

BTW, did I mention that I think Barry Bonds would deserve to be in the Hall of Fame?

And not to forget, Ben Oglivie
