Murph will get in the same way Crime Dog did, via the retired players' committee.


oddly enough, Murphy would have been better off and likely a first ballot HOFer had he gotten arthritis or some other debilitating ailment forcing him to retire at age 30/31 ala Koufax. He simply doesn't have the career WAR or other numbers to get him over the hump due in spite of the insane 6 year run he went on.

Andruw is in a similar boat...had 60+ WAR by age 30. He has even more of an argument to be in than Murphy does, IMO.

Good post

Andruw should of been in a while ago IMO, he has more of a resume for Cooperstown than Murph.
