I just don't know about Pudge being a Hall of Famer. Did he take anything? Was Canseco right? When asked if he took or not, why would he say, "Only God knows"

Pudge went from a mini Lou Ferrigano to a normal sized guy in 1 off season when testing was announced. Claimed he lost all the muscle to extend his career.LOL

I can't believe Jorge Posada gets only 3 percent of the vote and falls off after one ballot. He deserved better.

So we likely get four next year - Vlad, Hoffman, Chipper and Thome.

The lack of support Jeff Kent received is criminal. His stats are impressive in general, but when compared to second basemen he is in the top 3 (1st in many) on just about every offensive stat that matters.

Quote:
Bobby Grich only got 2.6% Lou Whitaker - 2.9% Willie Randolph - 1.1% A quick comparison in stats that are used to compare between era and teams: Name****WAR****oWAR****dWAR****OPS+ J. Kent****55.2****59.3****-0.6****123 B.Grich****70.9****62.1****16.2****125 L. Whitaker****74.9****67.1****15.4****117 W. Randolph****65.5****53.6****19.4****104 The only stats that seem to matter to you are HR, SLG, RBI (since these are the only stats he is top 3 for first basemen). His HR only was in the top 10 once in his career (2002-37, 7th). RBI top 10 6 times, but top 5 only three times. His slugging only made it in top 10 twice. His negative dWAR (also his runs from fielding being -42, and leading the league in errors 4 times) shows that he could have been put at another position as he wasn't any better than the average replacement player at 2nd base. You do this and his comparison for Offensive play doesn't hold up anymore. Also you need take into account his offensive stats were inflated batting after Bonds. His time with the Giants his WAR average was 5.23, the rest of his career his average was 2.16.
