My Take
Tim Salmon, fittingly nicknamed King Fish, embodies a kind of loyalty that modern baseball rarely sees. Fourteen seasons with one franchise, from Rookie of the Year in 1993 to a pivotal role in the Angels' 2002 World Series title, he was a craftsman rather than a headline-chaser. I admire players who plant roots and become the heartbeat of a club's identity. That he stayed in the game as a broadcaster only confirms a genuine love for the sport. Salmon is the quiet, dependable star every great team needs but seldom celebrates enough.
