he is hands down one of the greatest batters in MLB history. he may not have those "flashy stats", but just take this in for a moment.. Molitor is one of four players in major league history with at least 3,000 hits, a .300 lifetime batting average, and 500 stolen bases. The other three are Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, and Eddie Collins, none of whom played the game beyond 1930, and only the third player (along with Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner) with at least 3,000 hits, 600 doubles and 500 stolen bases. Molitor is the only player ever to accomplish those feats and hit at least 200 home runs. Molitor is also the first player in World Series history to have at least two home runs, two doubles, and two triples in one series (1993). another crazy thing is he has those numbers while playing under half a season in 81, barely any games in 84, and battled injuries in 86, 87 and 90 and a strike-shortened season in 94 where he was hitting .341 with 155 hits in 115 games, on a team that could have gone and won it all again. he gets little recognition for how incredible of a batter he was because he played for Milwaukee, Toronto and Minnesota
