My Take
Bobby Bonilla fascinates me as a case study in how baseball remembers its players. On pure merit, he was one of the game's most feared hitters in the late 1980s and early 1990s, a genuine force on those contending Pittsburgh Pirates teams. Yet his cultural footprint today rests largely on a deferred contract that resurfaces every summer as a holiday of sorts. I think that is unfair and wonderful at once: the Bronx kid who made it big now enjoys a strange immortality that most Hall of Famers would envy. Few careers illustrate better that legacy and statistics are entirely different currencies.
