Merely if talking about intangibles, he probably was the initial spark in the 2008 season. IIRC, it was early during that season that he ran all the way from right field to protect Aki after a hard slide by I-don't-remember-who. That moment announced to the baseball world that we were not going to be push-overs anymore. And it showed in the way the whole team played after that. Love the idea of signing him. JG has maintained that attitude with the teams he has played for since. Gotta love a blue collar baseball player! I think that’s a wonderful idea.
