Players That Should Be in the Baseball Hall of Fame
I've said it a thousand times, and I'll keep saying it. Rose before Bonds. What Bonds and the other cheating frauds did was permanent pollution of the historical records. Way worse than what Rose did.
It's sad that all those that used steroids in this decade will go in, and the all time hit king won't. Yes, he gambled. That didn't enhance his performance whatsoever.
Pete did more for baseball, than he did to hurt the game. Best hitter ever - untouchable records. Let him in!
He didn't hurt the game in Any way. He bet for his team cause he was confident! He never bet against his team
What he is accused of doing is confined to one series of one season. What the PED cheaters are accused of doing taints all the seasons of their entire careers.
He never made one error in the 1919 world series, hit over 300 and had the only homer in the series. He was a White Sox, not a Black Sox
He deserves it look at his stats in the world series that's not a player in on the fix
joe jackson did't go in the fix! It says that in all of the books and its true!
He has the most hits in baseball history for a shortstop and he has made so many memorable plays in the world series. Also, he's a class act on and off the field. He will make the hall whether you like it or not
I'm tired of hearing his name he is the most overrated player in mlb history
He really should steroids didn't help him that much
He is in the hall of fame, isn't he?
You can't judge a player from earlier eras only by the numbers. There are still lots of men who played alongside or against Gil - ask them. He was a great one, and deserves to be in.
HE IS THE funniest baseball player ever for the mets
Tommy John surgery is named after him for his remarkable comeback from a near career ending arm surgery. He won 288 games including 20 in 1977 and played in 4 ALL-Star Games (1968, 1978-1980), Tommy should go in for his amazing comeback.

Sure he was a Designated HItter most of his career (thanks to an injury early on that forever affected him), but he was so good that the award for DH of the year is called the Edgar Martinez award. Not to mention he could hit the ball like a demon completely free of steroids.
2004 he had one of the best seasons ever!.334 avg with 48 HR--that's not even human! The fact that he's still a.310 avg with 30 HR at age 37 is insane! Most players are done by that age. Incredible defense too...vote Beltre!
One of the greatest batters of all time
The pitcher in the 80's
61 in 1961, no doubt Maris achieve this feat despite having all of the media pressure running him down. Maris said after 1961 "I Wish I Never Hit 61, that would've save me a lot of headaches", Maris was also a great fielder and won games for his arm.
