How many casual MLB fans would recognize him off his mug? 10%?brs3 said:Brett Gardner. Homegrown, not quite old yet.

TheYaz67 said:According to Joel Sherman today, it could be 36 year old free agent Victor Martinez, since a team with A-Rod and Beltran definitely needs a highly paid player with his skill set, health, speed and positional flexibility. He is needed to compensate for all the high paid guys who forgot how to hit this year, according to Sherman*.

But yeah, the answer is probably Ellsbury or McCann or maybe the remnants of Teixeira if there has to be an answer.
He was by far you best player in the 2009 post season. A rod's 09 heroics are my November 11. Lest they forget.Hee Sox Choi said:So soon you forget:
