I was looking up career stats for a bunch of guys I thought were maybe future Hall of Famers who had solid numbers early in their careers, then ended up having a quick decline in numbers and retired way earlier than I thought they would.
I was a big Nomar Garciaparra fan. He had awesome offensive numbers early and was good defensively. Darin Erstad, Miguel Tejada, Troy Glaus, JD Drew, Trot Nixon, Shawn Green, John Olerud. What happened to these guys? I thought maybe 3000 hits or 400 or 500 homeruns.
