The Resume

    (July 10, 1954- )

Why he might be annoying:

    His nickname is 'The Hawk.'
    The Expos cut him after the 1986 season because they could not afford to keep him.
    He never played in the World Series.
    He retired just one year before the Marlins won the World Series.
    By the end of his career, his defensive skills were very poor and he could not hit a right handed pitcher.
    He won the NL MVP award in 1987 despite his team finishing in last place.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He won the NL MVP award his first year as a Cub.
    Ryne Sandberg called him 'the best player I ever played with.'
    The Expos retired his number 10 (his number however is not retired with the Washington Nationals).
    He was a great defensive and offensive baseball player.
    The Cubs gave him a blank check in 1987, and he did not get greedy.
