    Another one of my favorites as a kid. Loved his swing.
    And, yes, he was better than Donnie overall. Donnie was better defensively. Both great players though.

    he was about 2 inches taller and about 20lbs heavier than Donnie. Definitely had more power. But I think if not for his back Mattingly would have had a similar amount of homeruns

    Barraclough sucks. Went from possible trade bait to get something good back to trash

    Bochy has an under .500 career managing record. But will get into the HOF because of the 3 World Series championships. 79 wins to 2000

    if you manage the padres for a long time, you’re gonna be under .500.

    I don’t think anyone should go into the hall as a manager.

    Even if the Marlins were swept this weekend. They would have ended the season with 99 losses as the makeup game on Monday was cancelled

    Lose another good player in Realmuto. To a division rival no less. Mattingly's final year in his contract.

    I think they got a great return from trading a damn catcher.  This was an A+ move for the Fish.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
