Hall Of Fame Thread

Bonds and Clemens and Schilling will be on the veterans committee vote this year, so wait til next year, is really wait till later this year.

So at the time someone retires you only can look at players retired before them?

Hey these guys have greater numbers than me, I better retire now so I’m the greatest DH to retire first.

No...Deep sigh

ever wonder why there is a five year wait?

That further hurts Baines case

I did post that like a month ago, but there were other updates that had them over with like 25-30% of the ballots cast.
I guess we all got our hopes up.

For the third or fourth time now, thanks for showing everyone that you've paid zero attention to the HOF voting process over the last decade.

My goodness.

A big, warm smile and swearing in a speech go a long way I guess.

It’s what happens when you’re a media darling.

Curious, if PEDs aren’t a disqualifier for being in the hall, why isn’t Sheffield or Sosa in?

Sheffield in particular has numbers that rival Ortiz.

Bonds had 400/400 before he really spiked the football...

Have you guys read the article about his park-adjusted numbers during his roid years, or whatever you wish to call em? If he'd played in Coors, in 1999, when Larry Walker slashed 370/460/700, he'd have a slash of 440/580/1.020 with 95 HR.

Haven't come across that but I fully believe it. That's one of the crazy things about some of Bonds' power numbers: he was doing it (from 2000 forward at least) at a park that was absolutely brutal on left-handed power hitters.

Here are the final vote totals:

Apparently, Barry Bonds spends most of his retirement on a bike, just biking around the bay for 2 hours every morning.

Got to do something when you're not going to go to the hall of fame.

HAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

That cheater Rodger Clemens didn't make the hall of fame.
