Wow. Sometimes I wish I could actually play baseball. I would have taken one look and broke the guy's heart. But hey, I would have given my hat or something.

On a side note, I still think Mauer is a guaranteed first ballot HOFer. Three batting titles while a full-time catcher. No equals at the position.

Agreed. However, from here on out, if he moves from behind the plate, he's not quite AS valuable to the team as if he were behind it. Regardless of position, he and Vic are still two of the best hitters in the game when healthy though.

Do you think those guys that got Mark Prior's auto on a Koufax ball are regretting it? There are always "can't miss" prospects every year. Matt Bush was a can't miss prospect being the #1 pick and never made the show. Like the other guy said, wait for about 15 years and then get the auto.

I collected Eric Anthony rookie cards when they first came out, speculating he was going to be the next superstar. Lucky I didn't pay much for them.

but tracking him down his rookie year and asking him to sign a willie mays, hank aaron or ernie banks signed baseball would be ridiculous.
