I saw this meme on facebook, It has hundreds of comments, and I made the mistake of commenting.
My comment was: Larry Walker was great, BUT, Coors Field inflated his numbers, and there are other guys that would have these numbers, if they played 10 years with Coors as their home field.
I got attacked by the Larry Walker defenders.
A lot of comments were similar to mine, and a lot attacked the notion of coming up with a set of numbers, and writing: this is the only guy that did this.
Since the meme attracted so many comments on facebook, I think it must be a fun thread for TCDb
having trouble inking the memo so here is what it said:
Larry Walker the only player in MLB history with
.300 career batting average
.400 career on base
350 career Home Runs
200 Career Steals
