Congrats to Barry Larkin for being selected for induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
![]() ![]() Now a friendly word to the voters...WAKE UP!!! How the hell did Jeff Bagwell not make it in again this year? He played in an era where steriods were present, but never once was suspended or found guilty of using them. Yet, the voters shut him out once again. McGwire, Sosa, Palmeiro...got it!! I wish the voters would use FACTS and not assumptions when casting their ballots. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I completely agree with you Mac. Bag's numbers say one thing about the guy. He should be in the Hall. He is simply guilty by association. He got bigger as his career went on and hit more home runs, therefore he must be juicing. What a crock. I also think it's a shame that Jack Morris isn't in yet either. He was simply the best pitcher of the 1980's. And if for nothing else, that game 7 of the 1991 World Series should get him in! I am biased about that one though.

Maybe Its me but I kinda lump Bagwell in with those guys as well. I'm sorry but it is definitely guilt by association. I do agree that Morris should be in the hall, and that there are most certainly guys who are in the hall that weren't half as good as he was.

I totally agree Mac! Larkin is one of my all time favs!
Also...I think some people who vote, simply vote based on names they know rather than how people played.

I'm having a major brain block trying to figure out who else came out in that rookie class with Bagwell that was also a monster. All I keep coming up with is Royce Clayton, and he sure isn't it.
![]() I had to look it up, it was Chuck Knoblauch for the AL, and his numbers weren't close to Bag's.

There's no reason not to put Jack Morris in the hall. For that matter, look at Lou Whitaker's numbers compared to other 2nd basemen that are already in yet he's barely an afterthought. ![]()

You saw through me. But, I'm not arguing my feelings per se. The stats backup Lou and Morris. Tram, not as much, but it's not a huge strech. It would be nice for all three to get in.
