I remember someone like A-Rod saying something like that off the cuff, and it's ridiculous.

Trout, Harper, and Correa would obviously be WAY ahead of Hosmer...along with at least 20 others.

Not one on that list has as many postseason RBI's as Hosmer and only Salvy has 3 straight GG's. And which one has stolen home in the World Series and brought his team a title? None.

You are selling Hos way short. He has the heart of a lion. I think his best years are still to come. I hope he retires a Royal.

Who stole home in the world series?

I hope so too, but Gold Gloves at first base and career postseason RBIs are pretty damned far down the list of things I'm looking to build a team around.

Well it has worked out pretty good for the Royals so far.

Thanks, I figured he didn't actually know what constitutes a stolen base. It IS halfwit posting...

Call it what you want-that was an amazing play. I still can't believe he ran, but I am glad he did. :clap:

Amazing play that was absolutely not a steal of home

I fully expect the Angels to go after Alex Gordon. They desperately need a bat in left field, and his defense would be a bonus for them.

I'm still torn. It's not my money, so I'd love for them to get Gordon and Zobrist and an elite starter and more bullpen arms, but I know there's a limit. I'm just trying to figure out how much of that is my emotional attachment to Alex and who he's been vs. who he is and will be over the next 3-5 years.

GMDM nailed it with Billy, and I expect he'll do what's right by Alex.
