Bobby's Brain
Doctors are concerned about Bobby Murcer's health again. They'll perform another biopsy of his brain. I wish him the best.

In my house, Bobby Murcer is in our thoughts. I'm sure my fellow Met fans feel the same. Get better Bobby.

overlooked is bobby murcers's excellent playing career.
here's his 1971 line where he had a .427 on base avg and a .527 slugging percentage, with 25 homers and 25 doubles, and 94 RBI, in yankee stadium;
1971 25 NYY AL 146 529 94 175 25 6 25 94 14 8 91 60 .331 .427 .543 181 287 1 3 13 0 9 MVP-7,AS
this was a typical peak year bobby murcer season. He was actually a very good player. His only shortcoming was that he wasn't mickey mantle or babe ruth, but he was certainly a lot better than Jason Giambi or Melkey Cabrera once you adjust for the number of runs being scored in the 1970s.
