It helps playing 20 or so playoff games every year. Ruth, Mantle and DiMaggio got seven or less per year.

Acuna putting up an 8 WAR season, and at 25 has 174 steals. He’s 12th active for steals and everyone above him is 30+ years old. He’s probably going to push 400 HRs for his career if his power stays consistent into early 30s. He’s going to be considered one of the greatest ever barring injury.
I don’t disagree

Every single one of then minus Realmuto. Only other questionable one is Altuve but he is deserving IMO.
Arenado will likely take awhile to get in, but he is a top 2-3 defender in all of baseball over the last decade, and that’s for any position. He’s a better version of Scott Rolen.
Harper needs about 3-4 more seasons of elite production.
Freeman is one if best overall players of last decade.
Betts should be a 2-3 time MVP by the time his career is done.
Acuna has an amazing ceiling to be an all time great if he’s stays injury free.
Trout and Verlander are first ballot.
Scherzer is top 3 pitcher of last decade and has swayed WS championships

Oh, and Andruw Jones.
He should have been in 5 years ago.

Good call. He's such a good player, but 3B is the hardest position to get into the HoF that he is probably gonna be left out even if he has borderline numbers like you said.

Isn't 70 WAR the magic number? Based on that:
Already in:
Mike Trout
Max Scherzer
Mookie Betts
Justin Verlander
Work to do:
Bryce Harper
Jose Altuve
Freddie Freeman
Nolan Arrenado
Ronald Acuna
Too late:
JT Realmuto
Already in:
Mike Trout
Max Scherzer
Mookie Betts
Justin Verlander

PREACH!
And sorry Dodgers fans, but he's winning the MVP.

Only three current pitchers are in the hall of fame. After Scherzer, Verlander and Kershaw name me another that is a lock or even in
He doesn't have the numbers you normally need, but Bumgarner's playoff reputation might get him some serious consideration.

If you dig around Baseball Reference, 50 gets most guys in.

Then everyone is clearly Hof except Realmuto.

Uh, I'm not sure, he may have 2 more starts this year. Is he coming back next season?
Posted on 9/21/23 at 9:37 pm to tiggerthetooth
Has a HOF resume’ either way, but that would be the most greinke thing ever
Posted on 9/21/23 at 9:42 pm to Lester Earl
Greinke could hold his own at the plate, too.
Posted on 9/21/23 at 9:48 pm to Lester Earl
I think Greinke is gonna have a tough time finding a gig for next year (if he even wants one) but he should be in regardless
Posted on 9/21/23 at 9:51 pm to ShaneTheLegLechler
Here's one for y'all: Buster Posey. Yay or nay?
