I think the Reds HOF is nothing more than a collection of Reds greats but also Reds players that maybe weren't very great but happened to be fan favorites. I don't see it as a HOF but instead something used as an event to get fans out to the park one weekend out of the year to cheer a fan favorite as an all time Reds great whether they really were or not.
Reds HOF yep, no brainer too... colorful guy, workhorse... a better pitcher than another colorful workhorse with curly hair and threw left. Reds WW2 have been hitters first, guys like Arroyo might not be the Smoltz or Robin Roberts of the organization but in the Reds realm they are big players... I mean jeeze Harry Craft??
