Hall of Fame Voting: This Year, Next Year, and Beyond
nymr83 replied to Valadius's topic in New York Mets Talk
]Their peaks may have been similar, but griffey has longevity on his side. Griffey was also a far better defensive player and better all around player. I'd suggest that Griffey's peak was better. his 5 best OPS+ years were 172, 170, 164, 155, 153. Gonzo's were 169, 150, 149, 147, 141. Gonzalez really doesn't measure up to Griffey at all. -

yeah, griffey is a far better player, you cherry-picked your stats a bit too much and ignored very important ones... Griffey has a .374 career OBP to Gonzo's .343 and Griffey maintained that much higher rate while accumulating 2000 (and counting) more at-bats. For what its worth Gonzo is 120th on the career OPS+ list, Griffey jr. is 78th. I don't think Gonzalez is definitely not a hall of famer, but its hard to convince me that he definitely is one... for a guy that was a very good but not great hitter he has too many negatives... inability to stay on the field and easy defensive position being the biggest. -
Alou is at it again! given his injuries and the score (i'm not saying its over but its a nice lead) i'd pinch-run with endy chavez and leave him in for defense right now. edit- and the mets thought so too.

I'd wager that Lawrence's "best days" match up favorably with Kaz Ishii's. Would you care to go into their game logs and give me the numbers to back up your claim that Ishii's "best days" are better? use the top 10 or 20 percent of their starts to define "best days" or some other criteria of your choice, either way provide some numbers unless what you are really saying is "i like ishii better even though i have nothing to back it up."

Lawrence's career: 4.19 ERA, 1.341 WHIP Ishii's career: 4.44, 1.528 Lawrence also has a much better K/BB ratio. Ishii is horendous, Lawrence is having an uncharacteristic bad year (in all of 29 innings) next please.

barry bonds hoards his own "artifacts" in a warehouse so he can sell them later on, i cant fault the guy who caught the ball or the guy who bought it from him for doing whatever the heck makes him happy.

Rickey's 130 stolen bases, according to the book's calculations, added 22.2 runs to the A's that season. His 42 times caught stealing, on the other hand, subtracted 20.6 runs. I appreciate that the stolen base is over-rated, and I appreciate that 75.6% wasn't all that great a success rate, but I still can't buy this. i just did a bunch of math to try and explain this and must have screwed something up somewhere because my numbers made no sense to me afterwards, can anyone link to the relevant portion of "baseball between the numbers"?

]We cannot play like shit against a team that good and then ask why us? Why? We're not as good as them, that's why. the Mets have a better record and though we have scored 103 less runs than they have this year we've also allowed 115 less. and that was before we got Pedro back. The Mets are as good if not better than the Phillies.

that moron Sterling said yesterday that the yankee game was a matchip between "the two leading cy young contenders".... what a load of yankee crap that was... Wang isn't even close to being in the Cy Young race with an ERA more than half a run higher than Beckett's and Sabathia's, an inability to strike out batters, and about 45 innings less than Sabathia (who should run away with the award imo)

Gordon hits Wright on the 1st pitch he throws...fear of the MVP i think! make him pay Beltran!
-
damn, Castillo struck out?? he can't hit the ball out of the infield! his entire game is contact, just make some!
-
send Reyes...they wouldnt dare throw to 2nd with 1 out and Gomez on 3rd

i just saw i had a rejection email from the mets, i feel like a hot girl just shot me down. anyone with an extra 1st round seat let me know.

Selig has already made 150 combinations of hotel reservations, remember thats the reason we can't just given homefield to the better team.
