    Sure. I'm not advocating for them to be in the HOF. I'm advocating that it added greatly to the story of the game whenever they were involved.
  2. mvp 78
    Yup, Jamie Moyer and Julio Franco were a joy to watch for that very reason.
  3. mvp 78
    Sure
  4. mvp 78
    Beltre should be 100%

    @GlobeChadFinn Brad Penny got a vote, but Josh Beckett didn't. Huh.
  6. mvp 78
    @TimBritton According to the Mets, the Red Sox have not yet asked for permission to speak with Meulens.
  7. mvp 78
    Luis Rojas is the Mets new manager. Muelens, Baker, Perez and all the Sox internal candidates are still available.
  8. mvp 78
    I would agree that he's similar to Utley and Kinsler. I don't think either of those guys are HOF or considered "greats."
  9. mvp 78
    Yup! Need to move them now.
  10. mvp 78
    that's exactly why he didn't get votes.
  11. mvp 78
    I think he got screwed by losing out on his normal offseason. He should be better this year.
  12. mvp 78
    To me, you slam the door shut by fielding the best possible team on 4/1/20. Let a few prospects go. Get that flag.

    My concern is that this seems like the Lester situation to me and I believe if Mookie walks out the door it's because the Sox didn't want to pay his asking price in the first place.
  14. mvp 78
    No love for Mathewson or Wagner?
  15. mvp 78
    I think our definitions of "living a normal life" and mobility issues are different then. Lots of ex players struggle with chronic pain.

    He was a good little player who averaged about 135 games per season. Great glove. Overrated offense. He was HOF level 2008 - 2011. He was really good 2012 - 2016.

    If you're the Dodgers and you really want to win this year, maybe you do the deal...
  18. mvp 78
    Agree
  19. mvp 78
    If he was in a wheelchair or on crutches, it'd be all over the Globe. He's just not physically able to play baseball. That's a big difference.
  20. mvp 78
    I think he's leading a normal life. He's not bed ridden.
  21. mvp 78
    Annual reminder for everyone to get Jay Jaffee's "Cooperstown Casebook" that came out in 2017. It's a great read and goes into the history of how some shittier players got in the HOF and what guys have been inexplicably left out.
  22. mvp 78
    I don't care about the % nonsense. If you're in, you're in. There are just some really old BBWA guys with archaic ideas of what the HOF should be. Baseball would be better off if they modernized, dropped the Abner Doubleday lie and got rid of all the stupid unwritten rules that handcuff the experience.
  23. mvp 78
    I'll keep my fingers crossed that the uncouth opinions get better.
  24. mvp 78
    I'd do one leg, but not both. It'd really set my family up financially.
  25. mvp 78
    At that point, he certainly was.
