The word out of Toronto is slugging DH Frank Thomas who was benched days ago has been released by the Blue Jays. Big Frank who had 235 Times on Base, and 255 Total Bases last season certainly can still provide some offense with teams lacking in that area. It is certainly a small sample size to base a benching on. As, some players it takes longer to get in their groove.
I for one think Frank Thomas is a certain Hall Of Famer. Five years after this great piece was written, do you still feel it?
