I say no on the Hall, but it is close. The steroids thing hurts him. He never had any great seasons. And his best season ('97) was one of the few years his team didn't win the pennant.

I have to agree with you. Great pitcher, great career, but not hall material.

Well he's definitely not first ballot. I think they need to tighten the mythical guidelines on getting into the HOF.
-
Give him time? To do what? What will he do in the next five years to make him more hall worthy than he is now? Ten years? 20 years? This first ballot stuff is a joke (No offense, Mets)
More to come.....
And by the way, we never discussed this year's list of inductees. WE MUST! -

I have been an advocate of Blyleven. Not so much of Alomar.

Pete Rose isn't on there for gambling. But gambling is a cakewalk compared to like, drugs and steriods. So it is a mixed bag as Petite a Christian himself. Has admitted to his wrongdoings and ONE of the few that has done so. Which you have to admire despite that.
But it is up the HOF as the verdict is still out and will be out for a long time. -
At first glance, I can't see Pettite being worth a mention. I want to run the numbers to see where he ranks though.
