Bottom line is I may dislike the Yankees, but all biases and cheaters aside, my generation witnessed three all-time players Ken Griffey Jr, Frank Thomas, and Derek Jeter.

Guerrero was very comparable to Griffey and Thomas on a 162 game average (his career stopped a bit early) and had a much better batting average. Playing his prime years in Montreal did not help him achieve fame, for sure.

Cool. Griffey, Thomas, and Jeter are first ballot HOF'ers though...same can't be said for Guerrero. Ivan Rodriguez was another great player of the era if we're just talking great players.

Griffey Jr...although plagued by an injury late in his carrer, was the best player of the late 80s and 90s. Jeter...carried himself well, played hard and deserves to be in the HOF.

Too bad all of there cards were so over printed....

Go Red Sox!
