He's got my vote.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Borderline. Career dropped off pretty quickly and post 33 he was pretty much a DH. Remember his cannon arm and always liked the guy though.
IMO, definitely not first ballot.
Had no idea he was trying to come back the last two seasons. But, yeah, I'd vote for him.
Tough call. I'd say yes, but Dwight Evans goes in first.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

yes, this really is how we make our living.
Nearly 2600 hits with elite peripherals and for a while, outstanding defense? I mean really, what else can you ask a guy for?

Heck yes!
As an aside, I really miss the Expos. Damn you, Loria.
Whatever you do, do your best to not allow the struggles of life to interfere with the pleasures of living.
Did he announce it to himself? I think the rest of the world already knew?

I thought he'd been retired for a few years.
But, yeah. No doubt HoFer.
Rounding third and heading for home...
I dunno. Is Brian Giles a HOFer?
"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
