He'd never get my vote just because of how awful the DH rule is to me. The voters seem to be a pretty conservative bunch and I'm sure there are plenty who hate the DH as much as me. The DH to me is like voting for a non-kicker/punter ST's player in the NFL. Were they really good at that particular part of the game? Of course but every HOFer and even many non-HOFer's would have been just as good or better if they got to play on ST's/DH. Imagine what Griffey could have done if he didn't have to play the field once he go to Cinci or Bonds once his knee started to fail. Every pretty good hitter could have done as well or better than Martinez if they got to play only DH just as Ray Lewis would dominate if he played ST's. not at all. there's been plenty of full time dh's who don't come close to approaching edgar's production. using that logic, pitchers in the al shouldn't be eligible for the hall.

edgar's stats might look a little fishy in the steroid era. not a huge power threat until age 32, biggest power season at age 37. plus, while he has amazing career slash stats, i don't think he's accumulated enough counting stats. 309 home runs isn't enough.

Alomar, Blyleven, Larkin, McGwire, Raines, and Trammell.

UPSET PREDICTION OF THE WEEK: bears beat vikings i'm 1-0 so far in my upset predictions of the week, so you can take this to the bank
-
freaking obama

lol wtf cutler
-
Hendry's negatives (depleted farm system, ridiculous contracts, hatred of advanced stats, hard on for middle relievers) outweigh his positives (pretty awesome at trades).
-
this is the least excited i've seen people around here be for the michigan game. kinda hope michigan wins to see the people around here riled up.

in a new twist, the cubs now have the prospects to make impact deals but don't have the cash. damn it all. -
upset prediction: bengals lose to raiders this week.

so embarrassing. what a horrible gm.

Based on their bodies of work so far, I firmly believe that future civilizations will dig up all the draft magazines that debated "Russell or Quinn?" before the 2007 draft and conclude that our society was primitive and stupid. All societies of the past are primitive compared today. As long as our society continues to advance (rather than regress) that will remain true. I'm guessing at some point many years from know people will look back on our sports today and wonder why we cared so much about something that had nothing to do with us. Good to know, thanks!

Carpenter had a fine season, and I'm not mad at anyone who put him on their ballot
-
i think you should look at vazquez's numbers
-
Chris Coghlan wins NL rookie of the year. Andrew Bailey wins AL rookie of the year.

i think that's enough prime time games for the bears
