A comment about your discussion on Kelly Gruber and post-season slump and the early end to his career: in his defense, it might have been nice for you or Mike Cormack to mention that he was playing with a pretty bad injury.<br />http://mopupduty.com/the-greatest-jays-3b-ever-kelly-gruber/<br /><br />He had a "bone spur embedded in {his} spinal cord", which wasn't disclosed at the time. <br /><br />I do remember at that time, Cito being asked by reporters during the WS whether he was concerned about Gruber's slumping bat, and Cito's response was that he didn't care if Gruber didn't get one more hit - Cito was putting him in the lineup for his defense. He was right. Gruber's post-season glove-work did turn out pretty spectacular.DriveOf85noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-666468289152319972013-01-02T21:02:50.226-05:002013-01-02T21:02:50.226-05:00Thanks for this.
