Glue Guy. He about willed the '84 Cubs to the Playoffs on his own. So well respected that a guy who hit .291; .410 OBP; 14 HR and 82 RBI's placed 5th in the MVP voting.

He was one of those players every successful team has to have. Not the superstar or most talented, but the leader in the clubhouse and the guy who always makes the big play when needed. He was one of those players everyone respected and looked up to.
