“He was a mediocre outfielder with the Tigers and Cubs….it’s OBVIOUS he had some extra help. How come nobody ever talks about it?” screamed WFAN’s Evan Roberts this morning, considering the oddity of Dodgers OF Luis Gonzalez, he of the rapidly diminshing skills….and aberrant 57 HR’s for the Snakes in 2001.
It’s an interesting question — posed by a radio host who must’ve been without the benefit of newspapers, television or internet just a year ago when Gonzo’s own team owner at the time, the Snakes’ Ken Kendrick was quite willing to raise the same point.
Thanks for quoting me. Except I didn’t say it.
Chris,
nope. You didn’t. I fucked up. Royally. I apologize for the error and deeply regret publicly disparaging you for comments that were made by a colleague.
