Never. The even-odd thing ends this year. Maybe they will make playoffs, but I wouldn't put any money on it. Also, it's gonna be bad for baseball if these shit-tier teams keep winning the WS. The last 2 have been dreadful. Especially with MEDIOCRE PLAYERS LIKE ALEX GORDON.

Even though he never was implicated, I would have thought there would at least be some suspicion about him. He fits the power-hitting 1B profile a la McGwire and Bagwell (no I don't think Bags roided either) and had similarly huge seasons (him, Junior and Matt Williams were all on pace to break Maris' record in 1994 I believe) that were far out of the norm.
I don't believe he did roids, but if he did, he's lucky that he got in before some bombshell implicating him dropped.

Edmonds had the same triple slash line that Duke snider had and he had a comparable WRC+

Jones was probably the best defensive centerfielder of the past 40 years

Lofton I'm on the fence about but his longevity and elite basestealing deserved a much longer run on this ballot
>>
>>64750010
Right, I meant defense rather than their offense when compared to Griffey. Edmonds was a great hitter
Jones is all defense though. But he did hit 400 home runs, so maybe he'll pass the first ballot

He should come back as a DH to get to 2000 hits and give the writers 5 more years to realize that defense is big deal.
>>
>>64750066
Heres an article on edmonds
http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/appreciating-jim-edmonds/

I think Jones belongs in the hall. He was a B+ hitter and gave you otherwordly defensive ranger in that outfield
He should be in for his defense since people can get in for only their offense

The BBWAA love taking massive shits on defense. Alan Trammell and Lou Whitaker got fucked over like Edmonds and Lofton. Jones may not get in. Meanwhile Jeter will surely be a 1st ballot. Hopefully as some SABR guys start getting votes we'll see defense valued higher
>>
>>64750010
Jones is probably the best defensive outfielder of all time
>>
>>64750592
Jeter is 1st ballot, the others belong in too but them being in shouldn't be a case against jeter
>>
>>64750622
Jeter should go in for his offense, but what's going to happen is people will point to the Gold Gloves he was awarded for his offensive production and call him an elite defender because of it. Meanwhile players who actually played HOF level defense get ignored as a whole

He's still played a lot more games since 2012 than Pagan.

Besides, their lefty-righty splits line up perfectly. It's a great fit as long as they don't both get hurt at the same time.
>>
>>64750783
Posada and Varitek will both break 50% of the vote at least once, Wakefield 40%
Guerrero will be the only one from this class going in first ballot
Manny not likely to get in, but more likely than Bonds due to public apology
Bagwell, Hoffman and Raines will all join Vladdy for induction
Lugo, Baez, Cabrera, and Mora get shut out
Drew, Guillen, Rowand, Sanchez, and Rhodes all fall off the ballot first year while garnering at least one vote
>>
>>64751064

I see Posada getting ~50% in a couple of years; I see Varitek getting ~20% this year, maybe ~40% in the future.

I honestly don't see Wakefield getting more than 5%. If Nomar, Edmonds, and Anderson couldn't stay on, Wake won't either. He had a meme career and he's regarded for that, at best.

Manny might get in year 10 or something. He'll probably be a beloved full-time coach by then.

Several teams have announcers who have been with their team for 20+ years. I don't want to think about a time when my team's crew, certain announcers especially, isn't announcing for us any more. At this point I'm already hoping the youngest on our crew isn't tempted to go national, and keeps the current crew's legacy going for decades to come.

>>64754419
Arrieta is pretty much my boy lol

I would personally feel bad if I didn't keep him. But you think AJ Pollack will have another season like he had last year?
>>
No point in keeping Cruz...very injury prone and at the deepest position
>>
>>64754469
Is Arrieta as cool of a guy as he seems in the Cubs PG interviews? I've been a fanboy of his for a since he was with the Orioles. Now everyone is on his him because of his Cy Young and No hitter yet everyone hated him when we traded for him because we gave up Scott Feldman and Steve fucking Clevenger for him. Fucking casual fans are the worst.
>>
>>64754419
I'd keep Arrieta, Bryant and the last spot is tough. I'd probably say Pollack because a CF with his production is harder to find then a 1B. I'm glad i'm in a complete keeper league haha. That's a tough choice there.
>>
>>64754552
>Is Arrieta as cool of a guy as he seems in the Cubs PG interviews?
