The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
I still feel like the guys prior to the obviously cheating era are getting short changed. Fred McGriff is as good as a lot of guys already in.
Also Andrew Jones was the best defensive center fielder of his era. He dominated the position defensively for more than a decade. I don't much care that he got fat and tried to hit HR's late in his career.
McGriff is borderline for me. Walker, Jones, and Rolen, though, should be no-doubters.
I struggle with Walker because I feel like all his stats are inflated from playing in Colorado...there's years where he hit .400 at home and .230 everywhere else...I get you can't help the environment you play in, but I definitely feel like you have to take it into account...Walker was a very good player but I don't know that I ever thought of him as a hall of famer
The other two you mention (Jones and Rolen) I kind of think of the same way...very good players, maybe even had great years each, but hall of fame?
