My Take
Albert Belle fascinates me because he was a slugger who chose intimidation over charm, and the numbers backed up the menace. His 1995 season, the only 50-double, 50-home-run campaign in history, still stuns me; it was raw, relentless dominance. People remember his temper, but I am more struck by the discipline underneath, this is a man who was also an Eagle Scout. That tension between fury at the plate and quiet rigor off it is what makes him compelling to me. I tend to trust performers who let the work speak and refuse to perform likability, and Belle is the archetype.
