Hi, and welcome to another edition of Dodgers Dugout. My name is Houston Mitchell and let's get right to No. 22 in our countdown.
The 25 greatest Dodgers, No. 22: Kirk Gibson (16 first-place votes, 4,044 points)
Fifty years from now, some people who don't know any better will look at the numbers and wonder how Kirk Gibson is considered among the greatest Dodgers. He only played for three years for the team, hitting .264 with 42 homers.
Heading into the 1988 season, the Dodgers were coming off two bad seasons and had a lot of players with reputations for not always giving 100% on the field.
