     I think Willie Wilson set the major league record for at bats with 705
or so a few years back with Kansas City (AL).
     Thus, I think, Juan Samuel with 701 at bats holds the overall National
League record AND the major league record for a rookie.

     I agree that Samuel's lack of walks in the leadoff spot significantly
hurt the Phillies last year.
