    The fact that nobody else is close will get him in, I feel.
    They don't have to vote anyone in. There will be a lot of 1st place splits I think

    I always thought Rolen should get more consideration but his numbers aren’t there for me for as injury free as he remained. Wouldn’t be the worst inclusion though. 
    Yea. Nice player but nothing outstanding. I guess his WAR will get him in. 
    I don't think there is anyone with a 70 WAR not in the hall?

    I just noticed that Bobbi Grich, 3rd baseman for the Halos amongst other teams, has a 71.1 WAR.  He is only .2 under Jeter.  WOW!  He was always a good player but never said to be elite...

    Edit:  He had an 8.3 WAR which is elite, yet he was 19th in MVP voting.  Was that a Reggie year for MVP?  I know he killed in those A's years.

    I like Abreu to Houston. That lineup is going to be ridiculous if they can all stay healthy, of course.

    I'm hoping that Yuli re-signs as a role player/backup IF.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Yea Mattingly is better. Played with a bad back his final 7? years I believe. Had to tinker with new batting stances. Rolen never led in any of the major categories. Never won MVP. Good player

    Saw Juggs' post and laughed, set a timer for countdown to "Mattingly was better, he had a bad back" post.  :lol:

    I've been laughing since I posted it. 

    Rolen never had to tinker with his stance!

    So I look at the AB's and say what can Mattingly do with another 400 AB's?  Donnie isn't catching Rolen in Runs, 2b, 3b, HR, RBI or SB.  

    Rolen was a solid player over his career whereas Mattingly was great for a short time.
