Huston Street is on next years Hall of Fame ballot, feel free to ignore that section of the video common L

LMAO the slow pan from Chapman to Altuve 😭 10:28

Hudson Street has a career ERA+ of 145 and had 4 seasons ERA+ over 200 and even one season over 300. Great career in my opinion.

no seasons over 300 and only 2 over 200, im assuming you saw his 2014 season where he was traded mid season and with the padres he had a 313 era+ and with the angels he had an era+ of 214

"Underwhelming careers" Me noticing Huston Street never had a season below 100 ERA+

only had 2 seasons above 200 ERA+, decent career but never all that dominant like some of the other closers of his era

@@justmaxproductions street had a career era under 3 and 300 career saves the only reason he’s not remembered is because he was a journeyman

Oh yeah I remember the Pujols lidge home run. I remember seeing an interview. Maybe it was Ausmus or Ausmus telling the story but on their flight to St Louis, it was quiet in the cabin and someone got on the intercom and said "ladies and gentlemen, if you look out your right side window, you will see the Homerun baseball that Albert Pujols just hit a few hours ago." Lmao

Definitely agree with Andrew Bailey and Bobby Crosby but honestly, Houston Street had a really good career that I wouldn’t call mediocre or forgettable. Career 2.95 ERA and 324 saves. Definitely a solid closer for almost all of his career.

The "Please Stand By" bit is the BEST haha. Another great vid, Nash!

this channel is so slept on, thank you for these videos man!

Love the sense of humor, sir.

If you wanted to go back a few more years, you could have started this video with Ben Grieve. He won Rookie of the Year with the A’s in 1998, and even made the AL All Star team that year. Unfortunately, he peaked early in his career, as in that ROY season. After that, he faded into obscurity.

I know of Houston Street because my Mets were trying to acquire him during the 2008 trading deadline after the Mets closer (Billy Wagner) was done for the season halfway through with Tommy John surgery, but Oakland was not willing to trade Street for whatever reason I forgot. I also know Street because since im a Mets fan, I was watching the 2006 postseason closely, and I remember when Street gave up the walk-off-ALCS-ending-home-run to Magglio Ordonez of the Tigers. I do not remember Bobby Crosby. I vaguely remember Andrew Bailey, due to his low ERA when he was with Oakland. But I remember him only via name and the numbers he was producing, but not that ive ever seen his face. With all that said, I never cared for who wins rookie of the year in any league, so if someone told me that Street, Crosby, and Bailey won it, that would have been news to me.

You should do a video on the 18 inning game. I was there for all 18 and I was the first person to see Roger Clemens warming up as our season tickets were right there. What a game. We even have the limited edition plaque with soil from the infield and pic of Chris Burkes walkoff homerun "Chris Burke just purchased our ticket....."

I actually met Bobby Crosby in 2016 when I was working at Cooperstown Dreams Park and he was coaching a team competing there one of the weeks I was also there... chill guy

Dude love the page

That Verlander joke was hilarious

And you forgot to mention Eric Chavez he was the third baseman for the A's and he got Four Points for MVP votes

I remember all of these guys very well :)

As someone who has family that lives in Haddonfield a few interesting facts. The Michael Myers writer Debra Hill is actually from Haddonfield which is what inspired the name of the town from the movies. Its an interesting fact but the town also was the home to NFL player Joe Flacco when he was on the Eagles. Current MLB players have homes in the town as well, my relatives have run into Bryce Harper and JT Realmuto at times in town.

Respect to my fellow houston native

The highlight of Andrew Bailey's career was the commercial he filmed with Nelson Cruz.

I was at game 4 in 09 at Coors. Never been so mad at a closer in my life

10:29 I spit out my drink

I think this goes to prove something I have always believed: rookie of the year is often a terrible award for predicting a players success. I feel like it’s most apparent in the NBA, where many truly terrible players have won the award, but it’s also true in the MLB. So many rookies flame out.

Real ones will never forget these A’s.

These are some really good players... and Rick Porcello... BURN!!!!!!!!

I remember fondly all of Huston Street’s career

Not going to lie it was kind of fun growing up in Oakland and watching our lovable losing Trio of Golden State Warriors Oakland A's and Oakland Raiders, but the Oakland A's always broke my little heart, having good years and then losing close trading away good players for nothing and to top it off always trying to leave Oakland. I haven't been to an A's game in 10 years and haven't watched in three.

Constructive criticism: when talking about closing pitchers, please include their saves and blown saves as stats because W-L is a terrible stat to begin with, especially with discussing closers.

Look all im saying is that Street is the best closer in MLB power pros both 07 and 08 for the wii and ps2. Legit GOATED and cheap contract too so you just throw shit at the As until they trade him and get 40+ saves easy.

Unlike a lot of teams, the A's are more likely to play rookies on a regular basis. The 2022 chumps aside the A's have traditionally found good talent that others have passed up.

Street has over 300 saves, dude.
