HoJo Retrospective

Sickels hits us with a Howard Johnson Prospect Retro. I was a teenager during his prime and don't remember him walking so much. Perhaps that's because walks weren't the rage back then that they are now.

Johnson was a member of the great Tiger championship team of 1984. In his 3rd major league season at the age of 23, Johnson produced a league average OPS+ and saw the bulk of his playing time occur during the three summer months. He mainly hit 8th and 9th in the vaunted Tiger lineup.
