I'm watching "Hot Stove" on MLB Network, and I just heard Harold Reynolds describe Carl Crawford as "the Rickey Henderson of his generation."
Well, Rickey's career on-base percentage was .401. Guess what Carl's career number is? A whopping .337. His all-time high in walks is 51. Rickey hit the century mark seven times. He drew 80-99 walks 13 more times.
This is yet another example of a player turned analyst who doesn't understand even the most basic aspects of the game. Solid work, Harold.
