Tom Glavine :barf:
Larry Walker
Jim Thome

Too soon to say
Kerry Wood
Barry Zito

Pat Burrell


So many other names that fit somewhere here. Sheffield, Tim Hudson, Kevin Brown, Bagwell, Mark Prior etc....

[Bunky]

randy johnson
rafael palmeiro
don't be surprised if john olerud makes it
ivan rodriquez
john smoltz if he gets up over 200 saves
curt schilling
bagwell and biggio
vlad
troy percival and trevor hoffman, possibly
if griffey finishes his career on the up swing, he's in

[The Brain]

Paul, Jeter's not there yet... Glavine is closer than him

BERNIE WILLIAMS


i dunno larry,i hope he does,great guy and a huge talent,but he is buried on the yankees! he needs to go somewhere where he is the star player to get the attention he deserves!

[LarryD]

bernie's got some nice numbers (http://www.baseball-almanac.com/players/player.php?p=willibe02)

how come you guys left out roger clemens?

[RSgal]

Can I get a Mark McGwire?

[Braves]

Roger Clemens...

Raphael Palmiero

I honestly think Glavine and assuredly Maddox

you can only speculate on Arod and Jeter

Curt Schilling

Rickey Henderson--definitely

Bonds of course

Pedro Martinez, perhaps

Jim Thome..maybe

Mike Piazza..maybe

Griffey..he was in Arod territory..now, maybe not

Mark McGwire...probably

as years go by..records will be much harder to achieve.You will see very rarely a long term player...teams can't afford them

Yeah, but he's not in the hall yet. So that makes him a future hall of famer :)

[Turbo]

Sammy Sosa for sure. He was listed only once in this thread, but I find him to be a very definite Hall of Famer.

Neither :D But I brought him up because I think he deserves to go to the Hall, and his name hadn't been mentioned yet.

Your post about McGwire was after mine, Sherlock :p

[sockittome16]

McGriff shouldn't be in, but he should get 500 Home Runs by the time he retires. A-Rod is on pace to shatter Hank Aaron's record, and barring a huge collapse, he will be the greatest player in the history of baseball. No way in the world Bernie Williams makes the Hall of fame. Andruw Jones has a better chance of making it.
