Arthur Rhodes, 1993 Fleer #174

Alright, you get the quick n' dirty Willard Scott treatment tonight. Happy 42nd birthday to Arthur Rhodes, who is still in the running for the first World Series championship of his very long career. He was born in 1969, when the Orioles were still a juggernaut. Imagine that.

if you think about it, even players born in 1983 - the last gasp of the O's juggernaughtishness - will be turning 29 next season; past their theoretical prime...

In 1993, had you told me that Arthur Rhodes would become a modern day Jesse Orosco I'd have laughed at you.

I didn't realize that Rhodes started this season with the Rangers then picked up with the Cards after being cut. Now they're playing each other in the world series. Baseball, huh?
