Ted Williams, dude fought in two wars and still hit that many HRs.





Also, Peter Warrick's career was cut short by a misdiagnosed knee injury. How does a surgeon mistake a hairline fracture for a torn acl?

Definitely Bo Jackson, and Griffey's stats would be even more ridiculous now if he wasn't hurt for three straight years.

Nice to have you back to Afro.

I don't know about "coulda been the greatest" But Eric Lindros had all the tools to be one of the best ever.....amazing size, great hands, nice shot, decent set up guy.....certainly hall of fame material, until.....Enter Scott Stevens!

Gerald McClelland (Made me almost cry)
