hes not a hall of famer.. if he got 3,000 hits and one of them was a bad ruling on an error.. mlb would go back overturn that ruling or simply burn down the Hall of Fame to keep it from being further soiled by less than great players..
hell the other side of that.. if alan trammell can get in.. why not? with him getting in i should get some votes..
He's not going to reach 3,000 hits...I just can't see it happening. Sure he's putting up a career year, his best one since his 2008 season but I just don't see him continuing to put up this level of production for much longer. It's odd enough that he's revitalized himself during his age 34 season but it's not completely unheard of. You'll hear about it happening to a player or two every year. Last year it was Ryan Zimmerman & such as we are seeing with Zimmerman this year, it's generally followed by a swift regression to the norm. Then you've got the players like Nelson Cruz who were never All-Stars, or maybe once an All-Star, until they reached their 30's and are now perennial All-Star/MVP finalists. Of course, these type of players almost always have a past history with steroids (like Cruz).
It's different with pitchers though and I'm never really surprised to see it happen. In fact, analytic websites like fangraphs say that generally (but not always) pitchers don't reach their prime form until their early 30's season.
