Baseball comeback of the year? You can make a case for Nomar or Beltran or others, but I vote for The Big Hurt- Thomas's lifetime slugging average is .567. He's currently slugging .566. His lifetime OPS is a lofty .982. He's currently at .962. In other words, he's a Hall of Famer now playing at his typical level again.
- He has currently homered in six consecutive games.
- His salary? $500,000. He's 38 years old, coming off a .219 season and a history of injuries. The White Sox had given up on him, and nobody thought he was worth acquiring. Call the A's the "A Plusses" for this move, which appears to be about to pay off with a division championship.
