• Be Rickey Henderson
Long time readers of Baseball Musing might be aware that Rickey Henderson ranks as my favorite player. Although often thought of as a lead-off man who stole bases, Henderson did everything well. He got on base anyway he could. Some seasons he did it mainly with walks, some seasons hits dominated. He could hit for […]...2026

• The kings of the '80sMore than five years ago, I wrote a post titled "The Kings of the '70s" in which I determined which players had their own Topps cards for every year of the 1970s -- 1970 through 1979. I've wanted to do the same for the 1980s ever since I wrote that post. I realized doing the '70s post that while I adore that decade as the one in which I discovered baseball and I have great fondnes...2026Visit the page Lou Piniella headline news -
• Tops for each teamA Pirates account on Bluesky recently featured the Pirates player for which he had the most cards and then put out the question (I'm paraphrasing), "which Pirates player has the most cards in your collection?" My favorite team isn't the Pirates, so I could only guess. My first thought was Dave Parker, but I knew that wasn't right because he also appeared with the Reds on many junk...2026Read about Dave Parker latest news -

• 2003 Retired case (time capsule journal)Editors Note: This behemoth of a post is actually a bunch of posts in one. "Self-indulgent" is a word that comes to mind. It's probably not worth your time to read it, so by all means, feel free to ignore this post. It was mostly written years back, so much of what I say is outdated here in 2025. A lot of it is me hoping to pull a card that-- whoops-- turns out doesn't even exist. I guess I s...2026See more Kirby Puckett

Over the years, there is a perception that the Royals are a franchise infatuated by speed. Don’t get me wrong, speed is something you can’t teach, and I enjoy a stolen base, a triple or a terrific outfield play as much as the next guy. And speed most often facilitates those plays. But if a hitter can’t get on base, t...2023See more John Kruk
