Random Season

Randy Winn in 2005

102 games with Seattle - slashes .275/.342/.391
58 games with San Francisco - slashes .359/.391/.680

Overall - .306/.360/.499 with 308 total bases

He hit 25 doubles in those 102 games with the Mariners.
He hit 22 doubles in 58 games with the Giants.

He also had 5 of his 6 triples that year playing with the Giants.

Robinson Cano missed out on 3,000 hits. I know he fizzled out his last few years in MLB and also had those suspensions, smh. He was 361 hits away.

Someone on a podcast said that since 2000, only 6 times has the team with the best record actually won the World Series.

It's something to take with a grain of salt, but I suppose the idea is....it's no guarantee the Dodgers will win the World Series in 2025 (though they DID have the best record and won it last season)

Should have never left the Yankees.

Should have never left the Yankees.

I was torn at the time.
I thought he should have stayed, but 200 million or whatever he got from the Mariners was just impossible to turn down.

I don't know if Cano ever spoke about the negotiations publicly but I would love to see him talk about it.
You would assume Brian Cashman was a snake during the negotiations the same way he was with Bernie Williams and Derek Jeter. Hell if Steinbrenner didn't get involved, Aaron Judge would be gone, too.

I'm a little surprised that Luis Gonzalez finished his career with 2,591 hits over 19 seasons.
