	Bobby Grich \| BaseballLibrary.com
		Grich moved to second base full-time in 1973 and promptly set a ML record for that position with a.995 fielding percentage, and from 1973-76 he reached double figures in home runs and stolen bases each year while hitting near.260.
		In the strike-shortened 1981 season, Grich was one of four AL players to tie for the league home run title with 22, and also led the league with a.543 slugging percentage while batting a career-high.304.
		In the field, Grich had lost some range, but was still sure-handed, and in 1985 he regained his ML fielding record (which had been broken by Rob Wilfong in 1980) with a.997 percentage, committing only two errors at second base all season.

	SITT - Bobby Grich
		Thanks to a landmark court case won by Andy Messersmith and Dave McNally, Grich and a host of other players who were at the end of their contracts were the prime beneficiaries.
		The thing that sets Grich apart from 95 percent of the other second baseman who have played is the combination of fielding and hitting.
		Grich set an all-time major league fielding record in 1973 with a.995 fielding percentage.

	Bobby Grich - RBIdb
		Bobby Grich is the #6 hitter and starting 2B for California on the NES version of RBI.

	Greatest O's: Second Basemen (The Orioles Warehouse)
		Grich's hitting is underrated by many people because a large proportion of his offensive value came from his prodigious walk totals.
		Grich compiled a 125 lifetime adjusted OPS+ and a.295 era-adjusted Equivalent Average in his seventeen seasons with the Orioles and the Angels; his.297 EqA as an Oriole places him 11th in club history among batters with at least 2000 PA. Needless to say, those are extremely impressive figures for a second baseman.
		Grich has never received much attention for the Hall because he was a jack of all trades who lacked eye-popping numbers in any one statistical category.

	Does Bobby Grich belong in the HOF? - NetShrine Discussion Forum
		Grich has his strong supporters...he was definitely an excellent all around player, and although I've always wondered if he was great enough at anything in particular to make himself HOF worthy.
		The Grich that stole base hits was certainly a good 2B, he could draw walks too, he had some speed as well.
		Anyway, back to Grich, if'n he would have played earlier in Baltimore, or led the Angels to the Promised Land, we may be talking about him AS a HOF player....

	Player Profile:Bobby Grich
		Player notes: Bobby Grich was probably the premier secondbaseman in the American League in the late seventies and early eighties.
		He was a spark plug on the first Angels team to win a division title, and while the team never quite got over the hump to win a league pennant, Grich was a key reason they were always very competitive during his tenure there.
		Grich led the American League in slugging percentage in the strike shortened 1981 season, and tied for the home run title that year.

	Bobby Grich - Baseball Fever
		Bobby Grich is a real mystery to me. Before I joined BBF, I had literally never heard of him.
		Grich was a very good player but he was never considered an elite player.
		Grich did come into a bit of a better offensive league in the early 1980s, but there is no question that the game changed a lot from 1977 to 1987.

		Grich really arrived in Baltimore at age 23 in 1972 after a couple cups of coffee the two previous seasons.
		Grich was granted free agency on November 1, 1976, and signed with the Angels 23 days later.
		Grich said he loved Baltimore though, but with him being a california kid, the allure of going home was too much.

	Does Bobby Grich belong in the HOF? - Page 2 - NetShrine Discussion Forum
		Grich is underrated by the public at large, but overrated by Total Baseball, because he was mostly on teams with low-K/groundball staffs (Orioles and post-Ryan Angels), and TB tends to overrate anyone who was good on the DP, not that that's not important.
		Grich played at about the same excellent level for several years, never having the real big MVP-type year, then hurt his back when he was on his way to his best year, hurting his overall performance.
		Grich is worthy of the Hall-of-Fame if you value him in comparision to current Hall-of-Fame second baseman; he's in the middle of the group.

	Grich and Kent
		Grich has a very respectable five year cumulative Win Shares total of 148 with a 253 ten year total.
		So Grich fares well against HOFers already in the Hall, but it is important to remember that just because a guy is better than a few mistakes that gained entry doesn't mean he is a bona fide HOFer.
		Sure, Grich dwarfs the likes of Mazeroski, but only the Veterans' Committee and Pirates' fans would argue that Mazeroski belongs in the Hall, and most of them won't argue that with any conviction.

	Sons of Sam Horn > SoSH Hall of Fame thread IV: 2003
		Grich was a Gold Glove infielder, hit with power, walked a lot, was one of the best base runners of his era.
		In fact, the Angels signed Grich to play SS as well, but he hurt himself that off-season (moving an air conditioner), and was injured most of his first season in Anaheim.
		If you come in and don't vote for Bobby Grich ("because he doesn't SCREAM Hall of Famer"), or mull over whether Reggie Jackson is worthy of the Hall of Fame, it suggests to me that you want to change the rules to something different than what we have worked to achieve.
