I remember him well. He had a pretty long career.

These guys couldn't win, but they played with heart and were so fun to watch on Turner ... http://www.baseball-almanac.com/teamstats/roster.php?y=1981&t=ATL
I really think Murph should be in the HOF. He was arguably the best player in the 80s and played on a lot of bad teams. He is also a class act.

It’s a joke Barry bonds isn’t in and probably never will be. Simply the best hitter power / contact I’ve ever seen.

I was NOT ready to feel like I was in a bakery outside. I'm going to have to start going outside at nights again.
Also, remind me why again they decided to rely on a 36 year old reliever being able to stay healthy, a tommy john warrior, and a shoulder problems guy as 3 major pieces in the pen?

Great post.

For the one who started the "April chasing" thread, were you able to catch her? Did he ever catch April?

You’re not wrong. I didn’t like Barry Bonds very much, but he was a great hitter. The steroid era is an unfortunate speed bump for those stars. I really like Mark McGwire. He was my favorite hitter to watch. Probably the most intimidating stance and swing in the game.

It will be our luck Ms June will be jealous, ticked off, and she will be a hot head, and be a month long of 100 degree heat. :
Give me a Hank Aaron, Andruw Jones, Otis Nixon outfield (fit em in)
Chipper, Jeff Blauser, Lemke, Freeman, C-Lopez
Rotation: Maddux, Glavine, Smoltz, Avery
Bullpen: Wohlers, Smoltz (yeah again), John Rocker, Billy Wagner

I cant believe you left out Murphy !
Yeah big miss. But hard to beat a starting ro with those 4 aces. Just glad he didn’t toss in a Charlie Leibrandt! Circle change my a....
The 1998 MLB homerun race was undoubtedly the greatest time in the history of baseball. Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa. Just incredible. Steroids or not, what a time that was to be alive
I was a bit biased with my choices. That lineup is still winning 125 games against 2019 MLB rosters
What happens if you add the Crime Dog, David Justice, or Rafael Ramirez?
And yeah, 1998 was awesome. SportsCenter was good back then too. It sucks so bad now, compared to the 90s.
SportsCenter, Weather Channel, MTV all were much better in the 90s. I miss those days.
Maybe 130 wins? I was also torn because I loved Jeff Blauser growing up. I think I was drawn to the trademark chin! BUT I was also a huge fan of Rafael Furcal. Just so many good Braves players..
