jersey number 27

[notherhalo]

Will valdy and trout make it the jersey number with most HR all time?

[tdawg87]

Maybe.

[Stradling]

No, 44, Aaron, McCovey, Reggie. I'm sure there are more, but that's 1800.

Failo. Trout will hit 1700.

I've got a Vladdy jersey, and have decided it's the only one I'll wear. Too many Trout jerseys walking around anyway.

Reggie hit a lot of his wearing number 9.

I, like a lot of you, assumed that the recent three week offensive struggle will last the rest of Trout's career.

Good point, so 1500?

By the end of this season!

number 44 has a lot of HRs --

 

maybe it's a west coast thing -- and for some reason I never really associated Hank Aaron with his jersey number -- he was just a great player (and, actually, all the HR stuff detracted from the fact that Henry Aaron was an all around player who never really got the acclaim for that the way others (Willie Mays) did --- Now Mays was amazing -- but Aaron was closer to Mays in terms of being an all facets of the game player than many give him credit for).

 

But when I think of Number 44 (sorry, Reggie) -- to me, it's STRETCH -- Mr. Willie McCovey.  I think if you went back and did an analysis of stats from a 'were they clutch hits' kind of perspective, McCovey would be near the top of the list in that category............

Number 24 may have something to say about this....  Griffey Jr,  Mays, Bobby Bonds, Barry Bonds (Pittsburgh years), Manny, Dwight Evans, Andre Dawson, Miguel Cabrera, Rickey Henderson (292 HRs), Tony Perez.

 

Griff, Mays and Manny through the Boston years alone are 2K HRs -- they rest are just piling on.

Don't forget Gary Matthews, Jr.  - oh wait... never mind.

Leon " Daddy Wags" Wagner also wore # 27 as an Angel. He hit 91 hr's as an Angel in 61-63.

No insignificant player either, as he held the franchise season HR record of 37 for 15 years before Bobby Bonds tied it in 1977.

How quickly you forget Trumbo and Napoli in #44

You're like a baseball hipster.

Have you seen him play lately? Only two homers this past week. He's done.

Wow, 24 totally slipped my mind, sorry Jack Bauer.

[Brandon]

I think a lot of you guys are forgetting how well #77 did for this team.

 

Hell, he put the number on the map and took it towards the top of the HR charts.

Willits baby!
