POLL: Is this player a Hall of Famer?

CaliWG

TNT always thinks there is an agenda when the players name is not listed

TNT

TNT is more astute than people think

CaliWG

Did you just call him a donkey?

TNT

2/25/21 3:37pm

Only if that donkey is letting one rip

CaliWG

No, not as a first baseman. Need more offense for a first baseman to make it.

Stats of a 1B that everyone considers a solid Hall of Famer

CaliWG

Longevity is important, and it's absurd to claim that everyone believes Cepeda

Doesn’t matter. Compare him to all other HOF 1Bs, not just the lowest bar.

He retired early. Thats the sticking point. Who else retired with those numbers?

CaliWG

And yet his WAR7, which only measures peak years, is his lowest benchmark.

TCuz

You can't have it both ways; you can't rely on rate stats if a player retired

Scratch

They retired at the same age of 36

CaliWG

Who are you talking about? I'm confused; your statement above was "who else

Scratch

2/25/21 4:22pm

Who else has hurt their HOF case on the basis of advanced metrics by retiring?

CaliWG

2/25/21 5:05pm

If he's a Giant, no.

StantonMac

Based on the comparisons there, I'd say borderline NO.

Sadly no he is not

His HOF trajectory fell off once he got out of AAAA

Will Clark?

RC Vikings

I do have to say he’s a better candidate than Tim Lincecum, so you’re making progress on these polls!

I love Will Clark. I always wonder why he retired, especially when he tore it

He had a young boy at the time with autism

I loved that Will Clark swing, he and Junior Griffey.

As a kid I asked him for an autograph. He said no. I never liked him after that.
