Luis Gonzalez was too nice. And he broke out really late.

Interesting
It either shows how much we underrate Gonzo, or overate Rice.

Not enough GIDPs for Gonzo to make the HoF imo.
"OBP is not a production number, and should not be used as something he achieved."
True
GIDPs show that a player is trying to make things happen instead of just clogging up basepaths.
Taking a walk with runners on base is selfish and cowardly.
