Wallace with the 3rd pick. All of those players were on the 1992 US Baseball team to Barcelona yet only Nevin had even slight success in the majors. Of the players on that US Team, Jason Giambi had by far the most success in the show (albeit steroid-enhanced) with Charles Johnson 2nd. -- Remove blown from email address to reply.

Look at what he would still have to do. Pretty interesting and telling IMO.

I remember talking to a couple of Mariner fans maybe a year ago and the talk was the Ichiro would eventually pass Pete. I don't know, he still has a way to go. I read today that he just got his ninth straight 200 hits, no one has done that before apparently. |
