For the HOF, you do compare players against others at that position. 2nd base isn't the same as 1st base or DH-- and if you, as a manager, don't realize this you'll lose a lot of games. There's a reason Mark McGwire didn't play 2nd base. Biggio compares well to HOFers at 2nd base, including Joe Morgan and Ryne Sandberg-- and I think his numbers are solid irrespective of position. For example, 17 home runs is excellent for a lead off hitter. Biggio was never a superstar like Albert Belle and Mo Vaugn, but throughout his career we was widely considered one of the best 2nd basebmen, along with Roberto Alomar. |
