I got a little misty eyed. He's my 2nd favorite player. When DJ2 is done, Idk what I'll do. Its crazy to see your childhood heroes riding off into the sunset.


Yes it is. Especially in baseball. You get used to short careers in football but with baseball it seems like the legends will play forever, seeing them hang up their spikes hits hard. This is even worse than seeing ken Griffey jr or cal Ripken hang them up

IMO Chipper and DJ2 will be the toughest for my age group. We were old enough to see and understand their entire careers AND they stuck with 1 team. Chipper said it best. "At the end of the day I want people to say that boy played ball". Both really personify the game.
