It's not like he is even that popular of a former player and will draw a crowd the day he goes in. I'd rather the Reds go in with one fewer inductee than start to water down the HOF. Not that I put a ton of care into it tohe begin with but my interest has gone from slim to none recently.
    yes, there should be a limit of one recent player and one veterans pick per year.
    Ideally, only one player should get in per year (vet or current guy).. but I understand that the veteran picks aren't that well known
    by the casual fan.
    I agree with you though. There can't possibly be that many Danny Graves fans out there.
    I thought the Oester choice was lame, but at least he had a longevity and hustle argument going for him.
    Graves flipped off the fans, and he was really an average at best closer.
    I guess we will see Coco Cordero get voted in eventually too. Maybe Ted Power too lol

    [Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob

    They don't induct people every year.
