The one nice thing about the cheap HRs is that it should keep questionable players out of the HOF like McGriff. Definately an outstanding player, but HOFer and HOF type career do not come to mind when I think of him. Same goes for Ks. Pitching Ks are almost meaningless now since it is no longer considered shameful to strike out. Johnson's 3,000 Ks is still more impressive than Ryans total becuase Johnson did it in an era when it was a digrace to strikeout.

I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.
