1) Hoiles was awesome because he was...the tractor mechanic. Never showed any emotion and he could flat out rake.

2) Tettleton was so strong. Never heard a louder crack of the bat than when he squared up on one. Once saw him hit a homer off Nolan Ryan and it was the loudest hit I ever heard.

And as bad as it is that we traded Tettleton tot he Tigers for Jeff Robinson, remember that we actually fleeced the Tigers in getting Hoiles for a bunch of nothing before that. What comes around, goes around....

Put me down for a rare Jeff Tackett vote. His pugilistic prowess in the Orioles-Mariners brawl of '93 was classic. He looked like he had just gone 10 + rounds with a combination of Ali and Tyson after the dust had settled.

Plus, let us not forget, the man was a movie star with roles in both Dave and Bob Roberts.
