What should make for good discussion and public debate amongst the BBWAA has become an absolute joke. Basically, for the made-up HOF criteria you mentioned. As a fellow disenfranchisist (pretty sure that's not a real word), I don't think that is something they can ever really fix. Maybe their should be a Baseball Bloggers Association that makes their own HOF. Frank Thomas is easily in, as his production speaks for itself. If a DH rule is allowed in the sport, there is no logical reason it should be held against someone who is up for HOF consideration. I nominate Baer for the BBBA Hall of Fame chairman. I will be running for Assistant to the Regional Manager. Interesting article. What should make for good discussion and public debate amongst the BBWAA has become an absolute joke.
