only reason it may take awhile is because of all the other 1b during his era

bagwell, galarraga, say what you want but raffy and big mac, jt snow, joyner, will clark

[bdc]

How many of those do you believe should be in? Or better yet,will be in? Don't know if Raffy or Big Mac will ever make it.

Did you just compare Wally Joyner to Mark Grace?

not exactly

what i did say is that during his era there were many 1B who were similar

guys who hit for a good average, were good fielder, with average power

grace was the best of that bunch......but there were others of that era who did far more at the position who i think will get in first

[BlueWahooChambordDevil]

i think eventually both raffy and mac will get in

i think mcgriff, bagwell and galarraga are locks

grace will also get in eventually

the rest i dont think will

As much as I love McGriff and Galarraga, I also believe that they got caught up in the wash of a bunch of first basemen. McGriff quit a few homers shy of 500, right? All those consecutive years with 20+ and that was when 20 was like 35 is now.

freddie finished with 493

hes got more than bagwell

as for galarraga........the "wash" was him bagwell, raffy and big mac

andres doesnt have the roids issue hanging overhead......if the other two didnt have that his road may be a much longer and perhaps neverending one.........but if anything grace gets caught up in that "wash" of 1B because he didnt have the glory numbers or HRs and RBIs the cat did

I loved them all... Grace, Bagwell, McGriff, and andres. I hope you are right. I am just not sure they will make it. I hope that voters will eventually gain more respect for the non-roid playrs. Maybe they should make a "drugged up" wing for the hall. If they do, they should add Ken Cameltitty. Ken and his coke would get overshadowed by all of the big roid guys though.
