Did anyone ever try harder to win baseball games than Pete Rose?

I would prefer if Pete Rose stays out of the Hall. But if absolutely forced to choose, I'd let him in instead of the steroid guys.

Problem is it's a long season. As a manager betting on your team to win may lead you to do things to win THAT GAME that are not in the team's actual best interest. Running out a reliever who's on fumes, or leaving a starter in or pulling one to quickly etc. In a 162 game season there are very few must win games. Try telling that to a gambler though.
