Re: 2060, Hall of Fame Voting Chatter
I expect a full 10 for me, but I also think well be lucky if one person gets in. We have a crop of GMs who really really don't want to elect people to the Hall. Which is weird to say because I'm not even a Large Hall guy -- I just think we have a lot of deserving folks right now.

‘de Medici should be a slam dunk. So confusing and I’m a small hall guy.

People look at WAR and that's it. Take just a little bit of time to view the entire context of the player, please.

Re: 2060, Hall of Fame Voting Chatter
Wow… how did the HOF get this… constipated? I used to think, 500 homers, okay, you’re in. This year there are guys with 500 homers that aren’t even in my top 12.

Re: 2060, Hall of Fame Voting Chatter
My reliever bias worked against de' Medici. His peak years, when he was striking out 2 put of every 3 batters, we're outstanding. I'll keep a more open mind next year. I went heavy on offensive players with my votes.

de Medici and O'Macken are #1 and #2 in all time holds and #2 and #3 in WPA. When they pitched, your team was gonna win. de Medici is #2 all time in RP Ks behind just HOF' er Ken Howell. O'Macken is #9 in Ks by a RP.

And less than most HoF SPs?
I was honest about my bias. I am not saying I stand behind it.

Potentially if remained a Bluebird, but he was getting 50 or more innings fewer with other teams’ usage. The years he was throwing 160 IP…man he was nasty.
