It's something when you consider that Griffey was hitting home run numbers that hadn't been seen in years and staying with the guys who have since come out as being juiced up. Many forgot about Griffey because he went to Cincy and that team hasn't really been playoff calibre, and like most people...has slowed down with age and had a tougher time coming back from injuries. Than consider...how many of the pitchers they were against being juiced up. The guy was in the majors at the age of 20 and was a decently productive hitter back than, he was one of the most naturally talented players to come along in years. In his prime he could hit .300, hit 45+ homeruns and play gold glove center field, while having a good enough eye at the plate to be a 385 on base guy. From 1993 to 1998 he was the best player in MLB.
