The irony is there are probably very few gold glovers with that low of an avg.

I think Canseco had good averages early in his career.

Killebrew?

I'd say Gorman Thomas, but he never got close to 400 HRs. He got close to the Mendoza Line, though. Good-looking man.

Every MLB team has set their seasonal home run record in the last 22 years, except for two.

Darrell Evans had a weird career.

Surprised Jones's average was so low.
