Facts support my side of the conversation and I like green grapes!

yeah if you want a guy that strikes out twice as much as he draws walks LOL

Kenny Lofton is more valuable in these drafts anyway

He's more valuable because there are less good lead off hitters not because he's the better player.

Kirby was a better hitter, better fielder, had a better arm and wasn't made of glass, Lofton was faster, the end!


Lofton played in 140 games or more 5 times in 17 seasons.
Kirby played in 140 games or more 9 times in 12 seasons.

Lofton was top 10 in MVP voting 1 time in 17 seasons.
Kirby was top 10 in MVP voting 7 times in 12 seasons.

If we are bringing up meaningless stats then why is lofton WAR7 higher than Kirby??

Is it?? You bring up being a top 10 mvp candidate?? that’s a pretty bs stat too. That is just saying he is the best player on a playoff team basically



Nonsense, Twins made the playoffs in 2 of the 7 seasons he finished top 10. Finishing closer to last than first in 3 of those seasons.

Also, Lofton was never the best player on his team, Kirby was the best player on two Championship teams, thanks for proving my point! :suds:

Best player on the best team doesn’t win mvp?? Not a good sales pitch.
