Let's not forget how much leadoff men were highly valued in that era, and Raines was one of the elites of his day. Had he played for the Yanks (in his prime) or Red Sox, there would be no doubt he'd be in there.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Definitely agree. I always loved watching him play growing up
