It's probably similar, where people don't realize that hitting .300, walking 100 times, and smashing 40 doubles is actually better than hitting 50 home runs (and since he'll probably hit 45-50 HRs this year too, I mean . . . SICK) . . . Thomas eventually got his recognition, but only after years - plus his counting stats are nuts too. Part of it might be because Frank played in the field, too - but seriously, he barely played in the field . . . Hafner is a total freak, though, and in that regard they're totally similar.

S, I'm not sure if you read about this, but there's a new rule that no former Royal can win any award, ever again. Sorry.
(Know who leads the planet in SLG? Yep, Dye - he's definitely having a great season, way under the radar)
