Much like his case for making the Hall of Fame, the case for retiring Grich's number is only complicated by the passing of time, a great career divided by two teams and the presence of other worthy candidates.
It would have been interesting to see if Miguel Tejada, (had he been traded to the Angels) would have asked for coach Alfredo Griffin's #4, seeing as the Mig-Man chose that number early in his professional career as his honor to Griffin, the groundbreaking Dominican hero.
