Re: Percival to throw out first pitch, retire: HOF next stop?
Yikes! I'd have to say no, at least not yet. Until the days of Lee Smith and the like getting in from the previous generation I don't really think there is a place for a reliever/closer that wasn't considered one of the top two in his ERA. Hoffman/Riviera for sure. Perc I don't think so. Also way too many injury plagued seasons.

Re: Percival to throw out first pitch, retire: HOF next stop?
not even close
the only recent full time reliver getting in the Hall is Rivera, Hoffman has an outside chance. |

Re: Percival to throw out first pitch, retire: HOF next stop?
For reference:
Mariano 881 Regular IP 200 ERA+, 112.7 Postseason IP, .8 ERA Hoffman 885 Regular IP at 149 ERA+, 13 Postseason IP, 3.46 ERA Prior 657 Regular IP at 122 ERA+, 23.3 Posteason IP, 2.31 ERA Percival 611 Regular IP at 150 ERA+, 9.7 Posteason IP, 2.79 ERA The reason Mariano is a slam dunk is because of his incredible postseason output. I think Hoffman is probably the borderline HOFer and Percival is three or four years shy of that level. |

good luck with that
HOF Standards: Pitching - 14.0 (520) (Average HOFer ≈ 50) HOF Monitor: Pitching - 85.0 (129) (Likely HOFer > 100) http://www.baseball-reference.com/p/percitr01.shtml |

Even Rivera comes up way short on standards (although he is a lock by the monitor). I do agree with you that Percival is likely to come up short. |
