Kenny Lofton is probably the most underrated 90's MLB Star

Baw has very few contemporaries when it comes to playing Center Field

Also was never linked to PEDs..

34 SB in the postseason which is still most ALL TIME in MLB History

4x Gold Glove

He could snag out there in Center

I never really thought of him as a star… there were bigger names on the 90s Indians

Also played at Arizona…for the basketball team and not the baseball team. Dude stopped playing baseball after high school, picked it up again after college and made it to the big leagues in 3 years

Incredible athlete, but imagine him as a slot receiver with burrow throwing to him.

I remember Bobby Cox being interviewed freshly after retiring and was asked who the scariest player in that lineup was. Without any hesitation he said Kenny Lofton

The strike zone that was given to the Braves' starters was ridiculous too.

All I know is the dude was an absolute cheat code in Backyard Baseball on the base paths.

I like the way you think, Ostrich.

He and David Justice playing for both Atl and Cle always confused me as a kid.

love Kenny, maybe the worst trade in Astros history should have been the leadoff hitter with Biggio and Bagwell right behind.

My buddy and I once heckled him from a few seats away from Pesky’s pole so loudly and for so long that he gave us a full on crotch grab as he took the field before the 8th inning. The Sox fans around us loved it (from what I can recall). Second game of a day night doubleheader. Had drank our lunch at the Cask & Flagon. Manny hit one on Lansdowne street (he was still with the Indians). Great day.

He was fun to watch. As was that Indians team.
