(Photo by Elaine Thompson, AP Photos) Ken Griffey Jr. announced yesterday that he will be returning to the Seattle Mariners for another season. Although Griffey will never surpass Hank Aaron as many thought he would, he still has a chance to move past Willie Mays' 660 home runs for No. 4 overall.

There are so many different ways of evaluating who was the best pitcher or who was the most valuable player that, as much as fans live to call other people and especially the award voters stupid, these awards make it hard,...
