This week's topic...Rey Quiñones! According to former Mariners GM Dick Balderson - Rey "had the potential to be the best in the game, but what a strange guy.” At one point Ted Williams compared Rey to Frank Robinson. That didn't quite pan out, he was a Red Sox top prospect with a decent bat traded for Dave Henderson and Spike Owen. Rey was our first Seattle Mariners player, so we discussed their early history.
Rey is one of our favorites. According to teammate Henry Cotto - “Rey Quiñones is hard to understand." We tried to understand him.
