A bit shocking to me why Mattingly is so low.

Alomar definately deserves to be in however!

 

[Great Dealz Rob]

C'mon Hawk!!!

Out of the 84, Bert was left off one ballot.

 

[DRav87]

How many total ballots are there?

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Out of the 84, Bert was left off one ballot.

Some people need to get their head out of their butt. That same person should have their voting priviledges revoked.

I may go insane if Dawson doesn't get in this year.
I thought for sure he would have gone in by now and every year I get let down when the announcement day hits.
I have a real good feeling about this year!

A bit shocking to me why Mattingly is so low.

I think it's because he was really only great for a window of 5 or 6 seasons

The Hawk was one of the most overrated players of all time. Couldn't get on base, played on horrible teams, and honestly if it wasn't for that one fluke MVP season with the cubs he wouldn't get 50 percent of the vote. Blyleven shouldn't make it in either, never lead the league in anything.

You know, I could spend a lot of time typing out all his stats that show you he is top 50 all time in most offensive categories, tell you how the bolded actually helps his case, tell you he was ROY & MVP(the only one ever on a last place team, btw), tell you he won 8 gold gloves, had 8 all-star games, and 4 silver sluggers when those things actually meant something. I could also tell you that he had a cannon for an arm, is one of only 3 players in the history of baseball to hit 400+ HRs and steal 300+ bases in their career(one other is Willy Mays, and the 3rd is a cheater). I could also tell you that he is better statistically than most of the right fielders currently enshrined in Cooperstown.

I could do all that, but it's much easier to just tell you that you're wrong.

 

[Captain Feathersword]

C'mon Bert!

YAAAAAAY ANDRE FINALLY GETTING SOME LOVE!!!!

Word!

I wonder what Mac's numbers will be when all the votes are in.IMO...it will be really telling if they decide to let him in.

What a awesome response! Thanked! :lol:

I've said it other threads and I'll say it here too. I would love to see Alomar, Blyleven and Dawson get in this year.
