I'd definitely rather have Bidge at 2nd (and in the clubhouse)than Jeff Kent!

I have a soft spot in my heart for 2nd basemen. They toil away, rarely getting the accolades they deserve. The "perfect," all-around 2nd baseman lies somewhere between Maz and Hornsby. In the current era, besides Bidge, Alomar and Sandberg come to mind, although they most definitely did not toil in anonymity!
