And God, I wish Griffey could have stayed healthy. Can you imagine what the landscape of the game would have looked like if he - and not McGwire or Bonds - had been the one breaking records? He's a shell of his former self, but still one of the all-time greats. Such a shame his retirement is going to be overshadowed by Jim Joyce...

Griffey Jr and the 1995 Mariners team are the only reason the Mariners didn't move from Seattle when the city refused to pay for a new stadium.
Griffey Jr was amazing in the '90s and crazy how after the 1st year with the Reds he basically began to fall apart injury-wise. No question without a doubt that he would be the current home run champion and maybe be near the 1000 HR mark by now if it wasn't for injuries.
