Solid player, cool enough to play while wearing mirrored cop shades.

Good catch Bonny, added a Puhl for the Mookster.  Personally I don't let Mookie bat too often.  I get Hojo in their immediately and do not look back.  Decent speed and lefty, but he is essentially worthless outside of that.  Keep in the marginally better Dykstra and take out Mookie...

I'll get started on his RBIdb page:

BullDyke and Mookie Blaylock are a decent duo of lefties with some spee at the top.  He stays in.

How many subs to you use then TBT?  I personally think that Dykstra and Wilson are the same, mediocre player.  So with better options on the bench, Mookie gets the ax...

hojo comes in for uh....whoever is after hernandez(?)  and then tuefel or heep comes in for santana.  shit i aint remembering nuthin about the mets at the moment.  its been a while since i have used them.   :(

if i remember right, mookie or dykstra can be subbed for late with heep or tuefel for the power up bonus benefit.

we shouod have a dinner benefit for the power up bonus at the dee nee fest.

I doubt you bring Hojo in for the guy after Hernandez, as that is Gary Carter.  You likely bring him in at #6 for the fkn terrible Wally Backman...

It's cooll, at least your adding to a rare RBI discussion. 

Did all the basics on Mookie's page, probably done editing it for tonight:

Couldn't find 1987 Mookie Wilson cards - if anyone has such luck, post them and/or add to the database...

Happy birthday Mookie!


Also, Joh Kruk turns 45 today!

Hey Cowboys, welcome back!!!   

Shit, Kruk does turn 45 today.  For some reason Kruk was listed at the end of February on the RBI Birthdays Page (http://dee-nee.com/wiki/index.php/RBI_Birthdays).  Looks like I have more database work to do...

Mookie is awesome.  I would never pinch hit for him.  We're talking about Blaylock here, right?

Mookie Blaylock had some decent skills in NBA Live 98, good penetration and shooting...

I always keep Mookie in.  Always.  He's way to fast to sub for, especially in AG-style play.

Awesome.  Somehow I missed this before and wondered where everybody was getting these birthdays from.  We do a "On this day in sport history" thing in the paper every day and put athlete birthdays in with it.  Now I can get all the RBI'ers in there.

I always thought he should be faster than he was in the game, but I rarely take him out.

Heep is underrated, he always comes thru for me.

I love you Danny.

Mook stays in for me.  Although the Mets are the team I use the least.  I fkn hate their whole squad.
