Ken Griffey Jr.

PostSat Oct 17, 2020 4:53 pm

Back after a long vacation. Browsing players and just curious that there is no Ken Griffey card from his years in Cincy. I would think that would be a high demand item for Cincy fans. Or are Cincy fans the unicorns of the baseball world? :lol:

That one would do. He spent many years in Cincy. I think at least one of those years should be here.

It's the ONLY Cincy Season that he's a 1, and the other seasons aren't good enough offensively to warrant being used as a 2 or a 3. I'd say this is the Only CIN option for him.

Andy is right. I am a big Reds fan and loved Griffey. Sadly he was hurt so much that almost every other year is a big injury risk on top of poor defense. My favorite player was Griffey when he was in Seattle. I couldn't believe it when the Reds got him. Imagine your team trading for Willie Mays in his prime. Watching him be riddled with injuries as he became a shell of the great player he once was, really hurt.
