2013 Hall of Fame results

[white is right]

After all these years, I still have to gripe about the strike zone the umps gave Glavine back in the day. I still remember them calling strikes for him when the pitch was a foot out of the strike zone.

The opposite can be said for BB. Nothing that got pitched to him was called a strike unless it was right in his wheelhouse. And the way he wouldcrowd the plate with his suit of armor on used to make me sick.

Dale Murphy was the Jim Thome of the 80s. Greatest guys you'd ever meet, some of the best players in the game and they got not one bit of respect in the media

I'll go against the grain and say Morris gets in this year similar to Rice and Blyleven. Glavine and Maddux look like locks the other candidates look like they will have to have a significant bump to make the hall this year.

I'd like to see Jack Morris get in. I saw him pitch a lot, I even saw his first major league start (a call up to fill in for an injured Mark 'the Bird' Fidrych). But he seems to be the 'white guy most deserving of the Hall who is not in' that never gets enough support. Imagine his chances if he was black?
