Yorvit Torrealba, HOF?

All The Hype · Aug 4, 2012

His current status is "designated for assignment," but I like his chances of making a strong comeback.

Career statistical highlights include 55 HR, 321 RBI, and a slash line of .258/.317/.387. He hasn't been an All Star yet, but he just turned 34 this year, so he definitely should have a good chance to end his career with at least 70 HR.

HOF?

Monkey rodeo or HOF?

May as well just skip the obvious and do a poll on if he'll be unanimous first ballot.

It really seems like the majority of people who respond to these threads aren't using a projected end to a player's career to make their decision. Of course everyone knows that if any of these players being mentioned ended their careers today, they would not be HOFers. The question is always WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE, WILL THEY BE HOFERS. If Beltran errrr this guy could get to 400+ homeruns and 400+ stolen bases, he's a HOFer. Only one player in MLB history has accomplished that feat, and that is Barry Bonds.

"yes."

All these HOF-type threads apparently bore the minor-league guys here.

He gets in only after Omar Infante gets in.

A_Pharis · Aug 4, 2012

Can we get a comparison to Ozzie Smith?

Lars · Aug 4, 2012

What's his most limited rookie card? Can it realistically be a $1,000 card, even after he is DFA'd?

Only if Lenny Harris gets in.

Yea...I mean there's totally not that many of them. How many of these are polls that are even close or rely on a player being perfect and healthy for 4-6 more seasons?

I suppose they're more useful than all the 'player xxxx is promoted to xxxx' threads. (I'm too lazy to link to all of them like you did here though

)

The 2007 postseason has me voting yes. The man has played in two World Series! Let him in the Hall!

On that topic we can agree.
