The MLB Sophomore Jinx comes up around this time every season as the performance of many second-year players is not as good as their first seasons. Many people believe in this sensation associated with all professional sports, but none more than professional baseball.
The New York Mets came into the league in 1962. They were the worst team in history that season going 40-120. However, just seven years later, they took home their first championship.
Buster Posey recently hung up his cleats. He has three World Series rings and an MVP. Does he have enough to get into the Hall of Fame? Let’s take an early look at his case.
Like their ‘next-door neighbor,’ the Washington Nationals are a franchise attached to another city. Formerly the Montreal Expos, this franchise has had some great players yet mediocre results on the field. Who makes their All-Time Roster?
Every Thursday or Friday we will take a look back on the life and career of a player. You will get some background, an iconic moment, and plenty of stats. Last week we took a look at Kirby Puckett. This week we will spend some time on a great catcher and a player beloved both in Montreal and New York. Gary Carter.
