      Rickey is a tremendously _overrated_ ballplayer. Had he tried 100% of the time, he would absolutely be in the GOAT conversation. But he slacked off frequently, driving teams nuts, which is why he changed teams every couple of years. For example, if he wanted the team to rip up his contract - the one he'd agreed to - and pay him more, he'd purposely play lousy baseball until they gave him more millions. Often they traded him instead. (The Mets actually released him for that reason, in the middle of the season.) Rickey also enjoyed showing off with his "snap catch", and then he would drop a fly ball and have to stop...for a few weeks, then start again. He also hit very, very few triples, because he preferred to take a comfortable double, then pad his stats by stealing third. He was a head case, disliked by many teammates.

    Hahahaha Rickey Henderson was a trip! What a character! Always one of my favorite players. Joe Carter was always such a class act. Definitely needs to be in the HoF. Carter's home run and the Batista bat flip are the source of countless arguments in bars across Toronto to this day. I still go with the Carter home run. You are legend, Joe Carter!

    I was fortunate to attend Jays games ( including some World Series games) and most Canadians in my age group ( sixties ) would say that Carter is beloved and that his WS winning homer is one of the greatest moments in Canadian sports. Even without that moment he would still be beloved because he was everything you wanted in a representatve of your team ( humble , talented, kiind, always came to play).

    My favorite Ricky Henderson story. It was 1995 and my parents took me to Spring Training in Arizona. I was talking to Ricky when he was warming up in the outfield. Then my mom came over to get me so we could make it to the SF Giants game. Then Ricky Flexed his muscles at my mom. I was not happy about it. But what the hell was I going to do about it, I was 12 and he was “Ricky Freaking Henderson”. As I got older the story got funnier, but initially I hated him with the fire of a thousand suns.

    Joe is a little inaccurate. In November 1989 rickey henderson negotiated a 4 year $12 million dollar deal with oakland. Which was the biggest deal in mlb history at the time. Someone else surpassed rickeys contract just a few days later and I think it was Puckett.

    Rickey get's very little credit for how much he affected pitchers and got them to make mistakes to his teammates at bat. He took up a lot of space in their heads and they grooved pitches or made mistakes to a lot of hitters. Laugh at him for all the stories, but the man was a genius on the ball field.
