Yeah wanted no part of that.

Hader contract is insane. Not sure I get why the Astros thought he’s a fit. One last hurrah before they move on from some guys?

Stephenson looks like a discount Hader if the breakout is legit. Glad the Phillies gave him a look.

That bag of dicks is a perfect fit with the Trashtros

Hader is the Astros’ JVR.

Except they didn't sign him

Right. Stephenson is interesting, but I think 3x$10MM is risky for him. Probably not the best investment with the near dead weight already on the roster. Also, they don't really need to be desperate to add to the bullpen.

seems a lil high for Bryce

Lol

Lol

You can’t stomach the Walker contract. And you want them to throw money at a reliever?

Kingery szn.

Scotty Jetpax is back! This is his year along with Dom Brown!

And Jesse Biddle

Lol

 

[Cody Webster]

Perfect spot to go and steal $10.5 milli from. 0 expectations there

 

[Kermit the Prog]

Aroldis Chapman on a mission to pitch for every major league team.

 

[DancingPanther]

Utley with a very strong first-year showing. Bodes well.

That's quite the fall after the unknowns were added. He was at 39.4% in the public ballots. He and Sheffield had the biggest drops.

Vizquel was at 11% in public. I believe he had the biggest increase.

Let's just say those opinions track with what I think of non-public voters. Sexual harassment is bad and all, but don't you dare have a peak less than a decade.

Still anything over what? 25% or so? Usually is a pretty good indicator of eventual enshrinement. Dumbf***ery notwithstanding

Rolen was at 10.2% his first year and Mauer at like 16%, Walker at 20%. I think Chase will get in.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Damn. Rhys kinda got paid.

I feel like Beltre was a player I didn’t fully understand or appreciate as he was playing.

Looks like the HOF got it right this year. Sheffield I assume is PED related otherwise he should be in. Wagner I don't think is a HOFer but wouldn't be mad if he got in next year. I assume Utley and some others will climb their way up but not sure if they ever reach 75%.
