Balco Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Guy is on a huge tear this year. He has always been Mr. ClutchThis is very debatable, but he gets the nod over these players in my own humble opinion.Ruth, Williams, Cobb, Bonds, Musial, Gehrig, Gwynn, Carew, and Griffey.

Bfo Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Plus he missed 7 years in his prime. Good call.People forget this. The only big name player I know of that served in 2 wars.

FISHHEAD Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 YAZ was an impossible out down the stretch in 1967 ......and a very good clutch hitter in big spots, except for that painful pop out to Craig Nettles to end the epic 1978 divisional playoff game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FISHHEAD Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Simply speaking on "CLUTCH HOMERS"......Since 1970, can't think of any player with a better resume than PAPI Mr. October had some big tators, that comes to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
