(Newtonville, April 11, 2001) After another MVP-caliber season, he got some bad press this spring for whining about his poverty. Well, when Frankie finally realized he would have to make ends meet on $10 million, he bit the bullet, hunkered down, and started hitting. Again...

(Boston, April 8, 2000) Best hitter in baseball. Despite the last two years. Just sayin'. This man was the class of the nineties. 1015 slugging + OBP. Just sayin'.
