    ...today's the day. "The 16-person committee will meet on Sunday, then vote Monday only hours before the 11 a.m. PT announcement." 2pm EST........ I really have no sense as to who, if anyone, will get the 12 votes.

    Hall of Fame to release ballot today

    Pedro's famous quote from 2004 ALCS after pitching game 2 in New York- "I actually realized that I felt like somebody important, because I caught the attention of 60,000, plus you guys, plus the whole world, watching a guy that is, you reverse the time back 15 years ago, I was sitting under a...

    Hall of Fame to release ballot today

    Agree 100% but for a much shorter time. Eck Wins- 197, Eck Saves- 390 (10+ seasons as closer) Smotlz Wins- 213, Smoltz Saves- 154 (3 great seasons)

    Hall of Fame to release ballot today

    I just do not think he is a lock to make it this year. Is he a HOFer, yes, but I see him coming up short. I think he and Curt Schilling should both make it, mostly for being all-time-great post season pitchers. This in addition to being dominant starters in the steroids era and having the...

    The Thrift Store Thread - Sports Edition

    Belated big shout out to Mike/@elmalo for making this available to me. I now have a complete vintage (1968) signed Yaz autobiography, to go along with my book with a missing page ;) (which is still in my childhood autograph album).

    Authentic Autographs?

    I do think they look good, though my opinion matters not with the authenticators ;). Good luck in submitting them. Sent from my LG-D415 using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    The Thrift Store Thread - Sports Edition

    Yes, absolutely!! Great find!! I met Yaz as a kid and had him sign this exact book. I foolishly cut the signature out of the book. I would be very interested in this if you want to move it.

    Paul Molitor to Be Named New Twins Manager

    No, he was an average manager. Won nothing. He was a beast of a player though. Sent from my LG-D415 using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    Paul Molitor to Be Named New Twins Manager

    Always loved Molitor as a player. This gets me thinking, has any HOF player, after being elected to hall, achieved success as a manager? No one comes to mind so I've got to research. Sent from my LG-D415 using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    Had to get this for my "HOF-to-be" collection

    Yes, lost to Yankees in 4 games. He was 43 years old at the time. He's certainly carved out a tremendous career as a manager. Like they say, catchers make great managers.

    Newest Hall of Fame Candidates Announced- Golden Era Candidates- No one elected!

    http://baseballhall.org/hall-of-fame/2015-golden-era-committee-ballot I love a lot of these guys including Tiant, a real lot!! However, I do not see any of them getting in. I know Kaat and Tiant compare favorably to Catfish Hunter but he had many World Series wins. Boyer rates very highly as a...
