I don't presume to speak for BVM, but I believe that the point he was trying to make the case for a smaller, more elite Hall of Fame. That is, if there is any serious debate about whether or not a a candidate merits inclusion, then he probably doesn't belong in the Hall.

I tend to agree with this sentiment. I think the writers tend to elect two to three guys a year, and if there is a weaker crop of names on the ballot, there tends to be some weaker inductions.

What causes you to believe that 3000 hits is on its way to becoming as "common" as 500 homeruns will soon/has become?

    I'm in the minority by making a case for Parker, but he was THE best player in the game around 1976 to 1979. That was a period when offensive numbers weren't at their current Nintendo standards, but the Cobra was arguably the best at the plate then, even winning the MVP in 1978. His arm was incredible, too. He ran into trouble around 1982, but made a small turnaround and was a Brewers All-Star in 1990. He wasn't a big favorite of the press, so that will hurt him. I'd put Parker in before Jim Rice.... but I'm wearing black and gold pin-striped tinted glasses.


I'll give you Dave Parker if you give me Will "The Thrill" Clark, who was the best player in the National League in 1989 and 1991, and had a brilliant stretch from 87-92 (in Candlestick, a spectacularly difficult stadium for hitters). Of course, my tinted glasses are orange and black, so whateva.

Exactly. I have no problem with four or five guys getting in each year IF each of those guys deserves induction on his own merit. To get in on relative strength against a weaker class, though, just cheapens the Hall. I'm not so much concerned about the number of guys in there as maintaining the quality of player it takes to get in.

To address Abmulabmu, these guys are retired. Ryne Sandberg still has the same career stats now that he did a year ago. If a guy was not good enough to get in last year he's not suddenly better now. The measure for comparison hasn't changed either; the 80s and early 90s are now what they will forever be. Nothing will ever change Sandberg's status as a player, either unto himself or compared to the other players of his era. He is not a Hall of Famer, and unless he comes back tomorrow and puts up a couple of 40 home run seasons that isn't going to change.

And for Downtown Bookie, no player between 1937 and 1961 got in on their first year of eligibility. That's not a slight at DiMaggio, who is an obvious selection in my opinion, but rather an indication of how things were done differently in the past. Guys get in on the first ballot all the time now. Time should not be the difference between who gets in and who does not.

    Is he out because he never got to a magic number on any of his stats?

    Also, how did he play 163 games in '78 without getting traded?

    (edited by Guru Zim on 23.12.04 0027)


I think what hurt Rice was that as a power hitter he peaked earlier in his career (only 1 season after 79 with 30+ homers). He was a consistent .300 and 100 RBI though for pretty much the rest of his career. If he got to either 400 HR's or 3000 hits he'd probably have been voted in by now. Another thing that hurt him was that he had a pretty bad reputation amongst the members of the press.

Sorry, but for a power hitter Jim Rice just does not have Hall of Fame numbers. His career home run stats have him keeping company with marginal stars like Joe Carter, Albert Belle, and Harold Baines on the all time list, and not a one of those guys is HoF material. A very solid career, but not one of the best to ever play.

Indeed I will stick with that now.


I love you more every day, man. Blyleven not being included in the HOF is a shame. Morris being talked up is an even bigger shame. Over on ESPN, they had their little roundtable discussion and Jerry Crasnick says absolutely no to Blyleven in one blurb and then a page later, he's touting Jack Morris as an easy HOF pick. How do these buffoons get votes anyway?

For what it's worth, my ballot would include Bert Blylven, Goose Gossage, Wade Boggs and Ryne Sandberg.

Is the arguement for Blyleven being in the HOF simply based on the fact that you (and/or others) feel that he is one of the great pitchers to ever play the game of baseball, or just that since pitchers like Sutton, Niekro, and Jenkins are in, then at least Bert and Tommy John should be also? I think the writers, at least in the case of Sutton and Niekro, just felt that 300 wins was such a magical number that they HAD to enshrine them. In my opinion, none of the six are all-time greats. To use Scott's phrase, they are all just very good pitchers for a number of years, with Morris being the least of the 6, and the numbers at least imply that all of them were close, statistically.

I see two avenues to go with Blyleven: 1. Bert is as good, if not better, statistically, than Fergie Jenkins, so if Fergie is in, how can Bert not be? 2. If Fergie getting into the HOF was a fluke or mistake, do we use his numbers as any sort of barometer for other pitchers, and compare them to make a case for their enshrinement as well? I would be shocked if anyone ever came out and said that they erred in voting for Jenkins, but I just can't fathom how THAT many writers figure him as one of the greatest.



A lot of people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch of unconnected incidents and things. They don't realize that there's this, like, lattice of coincidence that lays on top of everything. Give you an example, show you what I mean: suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

I don't think that it will necessarily become as common as 500 Home Runs seems to be becoming, but just among active players, Palmerio, Bonds, Alomar, and Biggio all have 2600+ hits. IMO, at least three of the four will make it to 3,000.

As far as the Fergie/Blyleven/Morris debate goes, I think that when you're making a case for guys to be in the HOF by comparing them to guys already in the HOF, then you shouldn't compare them to the bottom 25% of people in the Hall. I think it's a mistake to guy by the "If A, then B" arguement that would allow anyone better than the worst player already in the Hall of Fame to be inducted. Each candidate should be held to their own merits.

Perhaps, but you're talking about three guys who, at a glance, you could make a case for being Hall of Famers. There's not a Fred McGriff on that list, a guy desperately chasing a milestone in a reach for that possibly automatic bid. Four guys in baseball closing in on 3,000 hits isn't bad when you consider who they are. Remember, it was only about ten years ago when George Brett, Robin Yount, and Dave Winfield were simultaneously closing in on 3,000...would you argue that was a lot, or that any of those guys were an indication that the feat was becoming less significant?

To me, its about the lame standard they set with Jenkins/Sutton/Niekro in the HOF. When you say "the worst player already in the Hall of Fame," you are speaking about a player that was voted, by a healthy majority of the writers (not counting anyone voted in by the V/C), as being one of the greatest players of his generation and one of the all time greats. By getting voted in, a player is officially recognized as such. That said, each player in the HOF is INDEED a yardstick for non-HOF players to measure themselves against. You don't think Fred McGriff is eying Hank Aaron, do you? I don't. I think he is looking at guys like Tony Perez or Orlando Cepeda, guys who aren't exactly the premiere guys, and wanting to be measured against what those guys did. I think that every writer that voted Fergie Jenkins, Don Sutton, and Phil Niekro in and NOT Bert Blyleven in should have to explain why those three are deserving and not Bert. If the standard is 300 wins, tell us that the standard is 300 wins, and then lets see how many guys in the future reach that milestone. Jenkins didn't. Jenkins was a really good pitcher....like Bert Blyleven. I just can't figure out the logic they are using, is all, with the "why those guys and not these guys" thing.

I don't think that any of the guys that are about to reach the 3,000 hit plateau are unworthy Hall of Famers, though it will be interesting to see what happen with Robby Alomar and Craig Biggio. My point is that nine of the twenty-five guys to get to 3,000 hits did so later than 1990. Now there are three or four set to do it in the next two to two and a half years, with presumably more to come after that. The rate is increasing, no doubt. Is that an anomaly or is it evidence that the goal is easier to reach today? I'm not sure. We'll see.

That's a good point. But I would say that, if you don't think that certain guys (i.e. Sutton and Jenkins) should be in the Hall, then they shouldn't be used as measuring sticks for future candidates. I just don't subscribe to the theory that everyone better than the worse HOFer should be in the Hall, themselves. And there have been mistakes in the past. Lots of them. If anyone is really interested in the topic of the HOF, I can suggest few books better than Bill James' Politics of Glory, which is a great look at the Hall of Fame and a lot of the marginal Hall of Famers (Sutton, Drysdale, Rizzuto, Jenkins, etc.). I don't know if anyone here has read any of Bill James' books, but he's one of my favorite baseball authors, and that book taught me a lot about the Hall.

As has been noted many times, there are no likely HoF-ers next year. It wouldn't be a surprise to see none of 2006 guys stick around for 2007. Sutter, Rice and Gossage are going to get a lot of looks and reconsideration.

(The possible exception is Pete Rose; 2006 would be his last year on the writers ballot, if he's made eligible.)

The Vet Committee announces it's selection on 03/02. I hoped for a dual Ryno/Santo induction - last time. Now, it'd just be nice.

Exactly what I hate. Just because nobody great retired in 2001 should not make the difference between whether Goose Gossage is a Hall of Fame guy or not.

There are plenty reasons why the Goose should be a Hall of Famer. Voters are going to have to decide what gets a closer/reliever in there, because there's an entire wave of people that play the position that are going to be coming up for induction soon, and there's going to have to be some sort of criteria for them. To have Eckersly in, but next-to-none of the guys that paved the way for him to get inducted is silly. Yes he was a decent starter, but he wasn't great until TLR started using him in the ninth inning of games. The same thing goes for DH's. Harold Baines is coming up in a year or two, and Edgar Martinez will be eligible in five.
