Default Re: Baseball HOF Ballot...Anybody Getting In This Year???


Bert Blyleven has everything on his resume besides WS Rings. That he's not in, and continues to get less run than guys like Jack Morris befuddles me.

Alan Trammell is a victim of being a complete shortstop in the 80s, as opposed to the new complete shortstop of the late 90s/2000s. He's in my top 10 list of all time shortstops.

Rich Gossage is eminently deserving, and has been for some time. Bruce Sutter is slightly less so. Tommy John is below Blyleven, but deserves entry, IMO.

Speaking of Tommy John, when is Dr. Frank Jobe going to get in the Hall? I can't think of one single off the field "incident" that has impacted baseball more than the ligament transplant surgery that Jobe first performed on John. He belongs in the Hall of Fame as a contributor.
