A Gwynnish Topic

What year does everyone think Tony Gwynn will go into the Hall of Fame?

[RockieBill]

I think you will find 3 first-ballot inductees in this list of folks eligible in 2007 -

Harold Baines, Rod Beck, Derek Bell, Dante Bichette, Bobby Bonilla, Jeff Brantley, Jay Buhner, Ken Caminiti, Jose Canseco, Eric Davis, Tony Fernandez, Tony Gwynn, Darryl Hamilton, Pete Harnisch, Charlie Hayes, Glenallen Hill, Ken Hill, Stan Javier, Wally Joyner, Ramon Martinez, Mark McGwire, Paul O’Neill, Gregg Olson, Cal Ripken Jr., Bret Saberhagen, Jeff Shaw, Kevin Tapani, Devon White, Bobby Witt


...Charlie Hayes and Derek Bell will probably not lead the pack...

when he is first up, obviously.

Tony will be a first ballot hall of famer, come on a .337 career average and led the NL in hitting 8 times. Derek bell should be in the hall of fame of thiefs

[sheffield_rocks]

I thought he hit .338 lifetime? Oh well...

I think Ripken and McGwire and MAYBE Joyner should go into the Hall of Fame by at least 2009 at the latest Canseco, Caminiti, Beck, Bichette, and Baines should also be in sometime soon

Gwyn, Mac and Ripken all 1st balloters....

I personally dont think Canseco, Caminiti, Beck, Bichette, Joyner and Baines should be in....

[sheffield_rocks]

I meant if we ran out of good players then they'd be in by the year 3000

That kind of soon :D

Cal Ripken, IMO, will be in the hall of fame before Gwynn.

They'll put Ripken in the first year he's on the ballot.

I don't give a rat's behind when those losers with the BBWAA and up in Cooperstown elect anyone ... Ripken, Gwynn and McGwire are already in the PopTop Hall of Fame, and that's all that really matters to me.
