Cooperstown and the MLB should be extremely ashamed for not letting him in the Hall of Fame.

His bat, cleats are in the Hall in an exhibit with his name on it. Seems like he's "in" the Hall to me. Not much of a ban. Just give him a plaque, and spell out his whole story on why he was banned and be done with it.

Should have bet on this.

Does it really matter if he makes Cooperstown???! Mean really?!

EHn....not NOW, I guess. I think a moment of forgiveness, before he passed, would have made a great moment in the history of Baseball. Now it's just another scandal like the Black Sox. I thought, by 80, they'd cut him a break, knowing he didn't have much time. Now, it'd just be an empty gesture.

​@@JamesWyatt-o5j True. Besides he shouldn't get in before Shoeless Joe Jackson.
