</ol>
<p>I don&#8217;t know why Beckett still lists Chris Duncan&#8217;s Topps rookie card as being &#8220;worth&#8221; $3.  Outdated information?  He&#8217;s almost 30 and has been hitting under .200 at the AAA level for the past 3 years.  And playing in the Washington Nationals organization doesn&#8217;t help.</p>

<p>&#8220;<em>The much-hyped Ramirez disappointed no one as he finished as runner-up in the Rookie of the Year race.  Among AL freshmen, he had the second-highest totals in homers, RBI, doubles and hits.  Exclusive of one 6-for-52 slide, Manny batted .303 during the 1994 season.</em>&#8221;</p>
<p>The man who beat out Manny Ramirez in homers, RBI, doubles, and hits in 1994 was Bob Hamelin.  Bob Hamelin batted .282 with 24 home runs in his the strike-shortened rookie season, then went on to win the 1994 AL Rookie of the Year award.</p>
