270 wins with a .638 percentage. And he did it in the toughest division. I think he should probably get in.

I agree. He was pretty damn good.

Edgar deserves to be in already.

Just assume all of them are on roids. Makes things easier.

If they assumed they all did roids it would be great. But they don't. That's why Thome, Rickey and Piazza are in and not the HR king.

Absolutely.

I wish he would have stuck around for a few more years to get to 300.

I'm always amused by the "Frank was always huge" crowd. Frank is basically my age.

We had guys in their sophomore year of high school on steroids who were kick ass football players at schools in the middle of cornfields. The acne on their backs was quite disgusting. He's a podiatrist today. Super fast back in the day.

I'd guess an SEC-level recruit might have had access to some assistance. He could have been on 'roids when he was 13.

Yep.

Thome and Thomas were both on the juice. Both deserve in the hall.

I thought about crawling through the ceiling back in the day to grab some evidence but then it just seemed ridiculous.

Put Moose in. He’s my all-time favorite player, second only to Josh Gibson.

Thomas never juiced. Fact.

In a couple years does Buehrle get first ballot or does he have to wait a couple years?

I see a lot of butt hurt Cub fans here who are upset that their star slugger from the 90s has been shunned from the Hall. Face it, Sammy was as dirty as a Wrigley bathroom

Frank and Thome did it the right way and were rewarded accordingly.

I wonder if Sox fans will celebrate when Andrew Jones gets in the HOF.. I dont remember Sox fans celebrating Ken Griffey jr getting in.

Vladimir Guerrero will be enshrined as an Angel. That's some bullshit. Should have been the last Expo. The Angels just buy people; the truest Angel is some whatever like Tim Salmon or Garret Anderson.

Players may take less to play for the Cubs but they go into the Hall in other caps.
