I gotcha. Packs, my apologies. Those guys you listed would be very good for the Very Good Hall of Fame.

LOL...sorry for messing you up

Jeeze I was going to say Tim Salmon averaged 29 homers 98 rbis and a 282 average over 14 years. That's very good in my book.

Haha same goes for Alou and Ellis Burks. These guys were all very good but never elite. Although I think a case could eventually be made for Alou considering he was PED cloud-free and put up some pretty sharp numbers in a steroid era.

Did anyone say jamie Moyer? If not then him.

Frank Howard and Sam McDowell. Also Don Mattingly, Paul O'Neill and Albert Belle.

I can't think of anyone who is out and should be in at the expense of current members, but I do think quite a few should be removed.

Bill Madlock
Orel Hershiser
Kevin Brown
David Cone
Kent Hrbek
Tony Pena
Kent Tekeulve

Hall of the Very Good continues to grow....and is verified by no one elected the other day from the "Golden Era" committee.

By the way, there is no disgrace at all in being in this Hall of Fame.

Albert Belle belongs in the real HOF. He actually was the feared hitter revisionists like to claim Jim Rice was. And had the ridiculous numbers to back it up.

In 100 years when some silly old timers committee looks at Belle's stats and has long forgotten how big an asshole he was, he might get voted in.
