Can't Miss It: Weekend Edition July 3-5
Weekend Theatre: July 3-5
Ken Griffey Jr.'s 596th career home run yesterday tied him with Rafael Palmiero for 9th on the official career home run list.
And it moved him into 6th on the career home run list that we all wish was the actual one.
Here it is:
1. Aaron: 755
2. Ruth: 714
3. Mays: 660
4. F. Robinson: 586
5. Killebrew: 573
6. Junior: 569
7. R. Jackson: 563
8. Schmidt: 548
9. Mantle: 536
10. Foxx: 534
Griffey Jr hit 398 of those home runs as a Mariner.

We certainly do wish that was the actual list.
My money is on him hitting around 600 and retiring. I'd be surprised if he gets to Mays.
Hard to imagine him getting to 660 with all the injuries, but if some team (THE MARINERS HELLO YOU ASSES!) would just overpay for him to be the DH and keep him off the fucking field, he might get there.
How do you know these guys are clean?
Fuck this shit Griffey sucks
