Jack Clark was never the type to be loved but he had a season to remember in 1987 for anyone who was paying attention.
On Tuesday evening there was a lively debate on Twitter which lasted into the early morning hours of yesterday on who, historically, Baseball Twitter would anoint to their All-Star Game. I believe this tweet was the genesis of the conversation. (I'm without an ironclad definition of "Baseball Twitter" but let's just assume any account that tweets frequently and near-exclusively about baseball is included.) Baseball Twitter, all of this from my own observation, typically holds an affinity towards lovable, fun players like Bartolo Colon, Jose Fernandez, and Rickey Henderson, as well as those capable of putting up otherworldly-like seasons, such as Barry Bonds or Bryce Harper.
