Walker Russ Johnson McDonald Morris Larson I just cannot put up Walker without Johnson, they have to be the greatest offensive "up the middle" combo ever. And Morris is there because of "the hit", hell it could be the only one of his carreer and he would still have to be there. Damn, I ended up with 2 sec base, 2 short, and a pitcher, that leaves a whole lot to cover.
No particular order: 1 Big Ben 2 Warren Morris (1 unbelievable play mainly) 3 Brad Cresse (Won the Stunford game for us I believe.) 4 Brett Laxton ( who could ever forget his performance in 93) 5 Todd Walker ( was amazing) I met Todd Walker and talked to him for about 3 minutes when he played for the Rockies. He came over and talked and then signed my LSU hat. Honorable mention Amando Rios, I loved this guy! No one's listed Brett Laxton???
Why would you want to put up Walker without johnson, I mean Russ was the SEC player of the year in 93, Walker follwed in 94 and then Furniss won in 96. Postion players Russ Johnson Todd Walker 396 Career Avg. Eddie Furniss 1998 National player of the year 80 Career HR's, SEC record holder 308 Career RBI's SEC record holder Brad Cresse 78 Carrer HR's, right behind Furniss 106 RBI Single Season, 2nd in SEC history Aaron Hill 2003 SEC player of the year Brandon Lasrson SEC single season HR record holder with 40 118 RBI's SEC single season record Pitchers Ben McDonald 1989 National player of the year Lloyd Peever 1992 National Player of the year Curtis Leskanic 15 wins in 89 Paul Byrd 17 Wins in 90 Brian Tallet 15 wins in 2000
Ahh Trey McClure!...I cant believe I forgot about him. I'm scratchin Larson off my list and puttin McClure in there!
I knew him and his twin brother Terry when they played for LSU. He always seemed OK to me. Maybe he didn't turn into a butthole until he got to the Bigs and started making all that money. He did have the best major league career of any of Skips players so far. He should have won the American League MVP in 1994 with 50 home runs and 50 doubles but the voters didn't like him and Mo Vaughn was a more likable guy.
I always enjoyed watching him play. He definatly had a unique look but he is from California so maybe that explains it.
Since everyone has put all the greats down I am going with a current roster guy. JC Holt because I met him in high school. I know he is still trying to make his mark. I have a great story about JC while at the regional track meet in Many, LA. JC was running the 100, 200 and doing the long jump. JC was the only white boy out there. Some of my African-American friends started to laugh saying he would get "smoked". Anyway not only did he smoke everyone in the 100 and 200 he placed first in the long jump. I want to say around 22 ft. Needless to say that all wanted to tell him that he was the fastest guy they had ever seen in person
