Rags, Fuji, Big Bob Kelley are locks for me. Then probably either Lance Warren or Eduardo Moran.

We trade guys too much so it’s tough but the obvious one for me is Miguel Acosta. The next two are Sidney Blackwell and T-Mart. T-Mart stopped being a monster he was so saddened to be traded

Alberto Oliveira would be an honorable mention for me... Monster first year as a established IFA who was then parlayed into the aforementioned Clark

This tear that Ben Mens is about to go on to get his numbers to what they usually are every year is going to be a sight to behold.

For some reason, I feel like he's had the quietest run of all of the guys in the top 10.

Just seems like when you think of memorable names, all those other dudes stick out way more, not sure why.




Also, he won't stay in the top 10 long after he retires with Todd on his heels and Marino as well. But top 10 should be safe for now.

TBF he actually has an outside shot at moving up to #3 of all time, he's about 5.5 WAR away from passing Alex Amaya who is at 102.2. So when Todd and Marino pass him he could still be top 5

and its probably a combination of no rings and me hyping up Grady so much more than Hoffman back in the day lol

Possibly but OCD is the most pitcher friendly park in the league I believe after a look a while ago.

Is it the most pitcher firnedly park? Yes
Have they died playing here? No

Cactus had arguably a career year
Eduardo Munoz, Julian Rivera, Bill Dyer, William Parker, Robby Moule performed as good or better than with other teams

Hoffman got that late in career motivation boost and came to camp in tip top shape a few years ago that's added maybe 3-5 years of elite performance to his resume

Took it too literally :)

Mens will be fine but it wouldn’t be crazy to see his numbers take a hit.

Now with that being said, I don’t know SF factors compared to OCD and maybe that won’t happen.
