He could also hit for a mere average and could of been a 55 SB threat if he had been a starter .Originally posted by Red Sox RuleComment

Pokey Reese can't hit, can't walk, doesn't reach base which means he's NOTHING! He would never steal close to 25 bases he can't hit! If you can't get on, you can't steal.Originally posted by whosyourpapi
I'd rather have someone slow who can actually hit more mere GOOD average, Reese is a worthless player and that's all he's worth being mentioned as.
Period!

Reese isn't totally worthless. He has good defensive ability at both 2B and SS. He also wasn't too bad in 99 (only season where he managed to stay 100% healthy).Originally posted by wilkerson_rulz-06ther have someone slow who can actually hit more mere GOOD average, Reese is a worthless player and that's all he's worth being mentioned as.The Q: Can the Cubs hold a 6-5 lead with 2 outs and nobody on in the 9th?
The A: No
***********My Rant on Bud Selig***********
Selig is like a stray pigeon. Pigeons are too self-absorbed to care about anyone else. They poo on people they don't like; they poo on people they don't even know. The only real difference between Selig and a pigeon is that Selig intends to bury our heritage, our traditions, and our culture,Comment

He can play a great defensive game and defence isn't worthless. And, he does have a World Series ring, which is more than any of us can say.Montreal Expos 1969 - 2004Comment
