Default Re: Whose cap does Piazza wear in the HOF?

Note that I threw up in my mouth while writing down Kent's name, but I think he is probably one of the best hitting second basemen of all-time. If he gets in at all, it will be after a couple of ballots.

I think Kent is hated just enough that he won't get in, despite his numbers.

Also, A-rod goes in as a Ranger? That would be my third choice for him.

How about Derek Jeter?

Barry Bonds - Giants
Ken Griffey - Mariners
Manny Ramirez - Red Sox
Alex Rodriguez - Rangers (assuming he plays 3-4 more years with Yankees, then Yankees)
Jeff Kent - Giants
Tom Glavine - Braves
Randy Johnson - Mariners
Pedro Martinez - Red Sox

I doubt Kent gets in. I would be SHOCKED if ARod went in as a Ranger. I think there's a good chance Bonds won't get in based on the talk about McGwire.

I think MLB should sell space on the hat, so that Maddux can be the HoFer sponsered by Pennzoil or Viagra or whatever. A better question is whether or not MLB should suspend the waiting period for Jeter and put him in now with a C on his cap (for Clutch, Captain, and Capitol One/Visa).

Wtf? Do you expect him to go in as a Columbus Clipper or something?

How do people manage to quote the white text but not read it?

The only 2Bs with a higher OPS+ than Kent are Lajoie, Eddie Collins, Hornsby, Jackie Robinson, Joe Morgan and Rod Carew. There are 15 2Bs in the Hall that have a lower OPS+ than Kent. And if they don't let Kent in right away, he will smite the baseball writers with his powerful mustache. I think he gets in.

I read it. If "I'm joking" was in there somewhere I wouldn't have made that post.

Don't all the writers despise him?
