[@hailmary7283]

As a Rockies fan I'm obviously really biased but I love this video. Also, for all of the times that people have said that our position players don't deserve various accolades because of Coors field, how come it never works the other way around for our pitching staff? Like why didn't Freeland get more buzz for the Cy Young because he pitched so well at Coors? I'm not saying he definitely deserved it, but if all our position players get knocked down a peg for playing at Coors, our pitchers should get some sort credit for it.

[@FoolishBaseball]

Freeland and Marquez were massive last year.

[@Mcrawf21]

I remember watching Ubaldo as a Rocky not getting credit except from the homer announcers on FSN Rocky Mountain. Even his no hitter (which I watched) didn't get much credit outside of the intermountain west.

[@grehhet161]

that is too much thinking for the BBWAA

[@Brett733]

That's a really good point, I'm surprised that isn't brought up more often. I also think Larry Walker should be in the HOF but perhaps I am a little bias as well because I am Canadian. I mean he had 3 seasons in a row where he batted over .360. If you look at his 162 game avg stats it is 31 HR, 107 RBI, .313 BA, 20 SB, those are HOF stats if I have ever seen them. If he played in NY or BOS he'd have been first ballot. He definitely deserves a spot in the HOF.

[@armadillolover99]

@@Mcrawf21 As someone from the east coast who doesn’t particularly follow the Rockies, the only time I could think of where Ubaldo got any national attention at all was in 2010 and that was because he made it impossible to ignore him. He started that year with the no hitter (which got no real attention like you said), then went on to have a sub 1.00 ERA through his first 12 starts and started the All-Star game after going 15-1 in the first half. Even then, I don’t think he got any attention until June

[@mikewalters3048]

Personally, I divide Hall of Famers into three categories: the great ones, the very good ones, and those who should not be in there. Two examples of the first category would be Willie Mays and Babe Ruth. Two examples of the second category would be George Brett and Enos Slaughter. Two examples of the third category would be Tony Perez and Joe Cronin. There are a number of ex-players that would be right there on the cusp with Larry Walker. Al Oliver and Fred McGriff come to mind. I'm a purest. My hall of fame would have about 40 players. Most years would have no inductees. This year there would be Mariano Rivera. Last year Jim Thome and no one in 2017. The previous inductee would have been Ken Griffey Jr. 3 years ago.

[@mccrysms9790]

Good thing you don't vote then.

[@joni1405]

Jeff Bagwell had a career WAR of 79.9 and you wouldn't have voted for him in 2017? His career WAR was only 4 below Griffey's, which, given how long they played, was like 0.2 WAR per year. Would you not have let Frank Thomas in either? That would be absurd given he was one of the best hitters of all time, yet Thomas' career WAR is 6 lower Bagwell's. The only possible reason to not let Bagwell in would be steroid rumors, but given he never failed a drug test and all evidence he used is circumstantial, I think it would be wrong to deny him on that basis. All three electees in 2017 were legit. Pudge Rodriguez and Tim Raines both had 69 career WAR which is more than enough to merit hall of fame induction. Tim Raines is fifth all time in stolen bases and has a career stolen base percentage of 85%.

[@mikewalters3048]

@Jon English Well, you've got guys like Scott Rolen and Dwight Evans who never got a sniff of the HOF who have better WAR numbers than do Willie Stargell or Hank Greenberg who are in the Hall. so you need to take your complaint to the HOF voters and not waste your time on me.

[@renshawjoshua]

Mike Walters Then it’s a good thing that the HOF makes a distinction exactly like the one you are describing; called “first ballot”. While there isn’t a special wing where “first ballot” players are separated from the “very good players” who eventually get in; the great ones are denoted as special by their “first ballot” status; and described as such with this specific language.
