I think it’s easy to go off the deep end on these. Sure I can argue 31 or 17. I can even argue 16 or 18. When we get to Hojo and John Franco I think we’re getting a little silly. Willie Mays even sillier.
These players can still be remembered and honored, but I don’t think the world ends if someone comes out of the bullpen wearing a #45.
