A terrific offensive player and only player that prevented Mike Piazza from being complete disaster (other four player recieved for Piazza: CJ, Bonilla, Eisenrich, Barros were awful with club)...His best season with the club was 2000, when hi hit .325, 43 hrs, 109 rbi's...He was at best an average defensive OF however......His behavior was solid with club until winter 2000/spring training 2001, when he locked horns with Dodgers chairman Bob Daly after he felt he was shown disrespect by Bob Daly publicly said he would not have traded Piazza for Shef and then a rumor broke out he would be traded to Cleveland for Roberto Alomar. Shef in turn demanded a huge extension to contract which led to ugly confrotation through out spring training with Gary saying he demanded trade. However Gary did stay with club in 2001 season although he had another confrontation with Shawn Green near the end of the season and did not show Shawn respect after he hit a third home run in game and stepped into batters box instead of letting fans giving him a long standing ovation.... Gary was sent to Atlanta for Brian Jordan, Odalis Perez and a minor leauger after season...I would give Gary a 5 if he had been with club longer or was able to lead team to World Series
