Piazza was called by Johnny Bench to to let him know he had made the HOF. Pretty cool for him.

HOF is apparently open to Griffey's being backwards.

 

Stupid in my opinion.

Buck Showalter agrees with you.

I want the guy that doesn't vote for Griffey to explain his logic.

 

I want them kicked off the HOF voting committee, because there is NO logic behind not voting for him.

 

I get some players who are HOF worthy not getting votes...some guys just aren't unanimous shoe in's...Piazza comes to mind, he was a below average defensive catcher and that will bother some voters and they may not deem him a HOF catcher. But no way Jr. should not be on 100% of ballots cast.

I read that it's POSSIBLE the writers didn't vote for him because a)they're limited to 10 b)they knew he'd get in so c)they used one of their 10 votes for someone who needed the vote.

 

Well, I guess there is some logic there...but I ain't leaving a sure fire guy off my ballot I can tell you that without some big controversial issue (Bonds, etc.)

The HOF has final say on which cap a player wears but takes input from the player. HOF is apparently open to Griffey's being backwards.

 

I wouldn't be surprised to see Piazza have no logo. If there is one it has to be the Mets.

 

Griffey has said he will not ask to have his plaque show a backwards cap.

Stupid in my opinion.

 

Why?

Results seem to indicate the beginning in a shift in voter attitude towards the "users".

 

Big jumps by Bonds and Clemens.

 

Piazza, who's been associated with steroids, getting in.

 

Bagwell, another who's been associated with steroids, a sure thing for next year now.

 

Really glad to see Raines get as close as he did. He'll definitely make it in next year, which is his last on the ballot.

I'll say it again. Griffey has as strong a case for PED use as some of the guys who are being targeted for it.

Beacuse these guys had awesome stats in 2015? What changes from year to year, they either are or are not.

In your opinion. To the other 99.9% of the world, there is no case.

...and there is no case for Bagwell.

Either way, HOF voters are slowly and surely turning the HOF into something I've lost a ton of interest in.

Elaborate?

...and there is no case for Bagwell.

 

I never said there was. Bagwell would've been a 1st ballot guy if I had a vote.
