He is a great player. He has always been a great player, a complete player, a super player. And I hope he is judged by real baseball people when he is finished, by people who know a baseball player when they see one ... on the basis of true facts and not assumptions.
added believe bring certainly game good hope umpire woman women
I certainly hope she makes it to the big leagues, ... There are so many women now -- writers, and what about TV? I think there should be a woman or two. They know the game. Why not? I believe a woman umpire would bring some good ingredients to the game and added interest.

He doesn't have the speed anymore. I believe that when we reach back, we are going to hide all that talent that started when he was a kid. Because there's no question about it, this guy's been great since he was a kid.
