MLB HOF ballot

Murphy will get in eventually because in the future, there won't be many names on a ballot due to the steriods era, nobody will vote in someone who they suspect took steriods, bottom line.

Until Ron Santo gets in, the HOF is nothing but a joke.

Grace had the most hits in the 90's but I am not sure he will make it.

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

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?

**BlueWahooChambordDevil** · December 2nd, 2008, 12:24 AM

i think eventually both raffy and mac will get in

i think mcgriff, bagwell and galarraga are locks

grace will also get in eventually

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

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.
