Murphy definitely gets my vote. Tiant and Trammell are deserving too imo.

Ted Simmons to me is an issue one that got the shaft many years ago. He was essentially punished for not being in the same category as Johnny Bench. His numbers for a catcher should make him a lock

I watched Simba play at Milwaukee County Stadium. When you consider the dimensions of the field, and its proximity to Lake Michigan, that the Brewers hit as many home runs as they did in the early 80s is a miracle. Of all those guys, Ted Simmons, I swear, hit the ball the hardest. It just made a different sound.

He should have been in years ago.
