man i feel sorry for this kid, he had the world and now he might be considered a huge bust.

Yeah, he just injures himself so much, it's eerie. The worst part about it, though, is that if healthy, the kid can rake.

Did he get injured again? Man the kid can't catch a brake

who is this kid?

Tampa Bay Devil Rays outfield prospect. They got a ton of outfield prospects, but this guy was potentially the best outfield prospect in the games, along with Rocco Baldelli or whatever his name is on Tampa as well.

:( i wanna see tampa bay win some games sometime soon :(

If they'd spend their money on pitching rather than on guys like Greg Vaughn, maybe they would win.

i dont really think that was there fault he was really good for 2 years and then he just floped with no protection in the lineup. noone saw that coming.

Being really good for 2 seasons shouldn't earn you a near $10M per season contract.

 

.272, 50, 119 in 1998

.245, 45, 118 in 1999

 

Those are good power numbers, but his average is bad, and his strikeout to walk ratio is not good (combined 258 k's, 164 walks). His OBP (.363 and .347) is alright at best

 

Very up and down player throughout his career (in other words, not consistent), and did not deserve the money he got IMO. Bad move by the D'Rays.

well that is when contracts where getting out of hand and everyone was signing those kinds of contracts.

They invested too much money in elderly players.

Rays released Greg Vaughn...what a bust.

They also traded Conti for Javier Valentin, Jose's brother.

So now its: Grieve, Crawford, Rolls, Tyner

They invested too much money in elderly players.

:huh: They they also spent too much on Canseco and Castilla. I think there were a few others as well but not too sure.

McWhiff..... traded to the sCrUBS for practically nothing to lower payroll

Did Boggs ever play for Tampa Bay???

Did Boggs ever play for Tampa Bay???

Yes. He was their 3rd basemen their inaugural season if memory serves me correct.

Ya, he got his 3000th hit there.

If memory serves me correctly, Boggs retired as a D'Ray.... and possibly still has some position with the team.

Ya, he got his 3000th hit there.

yea he finially got it after all those .187 batting averages :(

Man Boggs was a helluva player....the worst he ever hit was .260....and aside from that year...the worst he ever hit was .280. And he only hit below .300 3 times in 18 seasons.

 

What hat will he wear into the HoF? I believe they took that choice away from the players because of Boggs(I suppose he was going to go in with a DRays hat in because that's where he got his 3000th hit....I think that's what I heard). He had his best years in Boston.....he won a series with the Yanks....and he got his 3000th hit with the DRays.
