Are you guys kidding me about Mattingly? Look at the #'s he put up before he had back problems. He was a HOF for sure if not for the back problems. He couldn't turn on the ball hard anymore and his #'s went down so he retired.

As for Rings what does A-Rod have? Many consider him the best in the game.

I don't blame Mattingly for not staying around. If this team wants to win another WS then they need more pitching.
