g2h Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Season ending surgery, possible career ending surgey. Does he make it to the hall of fame? yes or no.... out on a limb. he is one of the biggest reasons the sox won it all in '04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeM58 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 He's not a first ballot type guy, but he should get in at some point. Of course, I thought Jim Rice would be in by now too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditch Jigger Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 216 wins, 3.46 career ERA. With the bulk of his career in the National League. Not a chance.

J Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 That 1st WS will have a lot to do with it. If not for he, red sox nation would not have realized and end to that almost 90 year drought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jettyjockey18 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 216 wins, 3.46 career ERA. With the bulk of his career in the National League. Not a chance. 3-20 win seasons, 3-300 strikeout seasons, WS co-mvp, 9-2 post season record...bloody sock...i don't think its so cut and dried...i think shilling's regular season stats are borderline, but his post season record gets him in, just not on the first ballot...future HOF voters will have to take into account the steroid era when deciding on pitchers with similar stats...

jettyjockey18 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Even his injury was overrated. the injury where his doctor practiced once on a cadaver before stiching his ankle skin together, shooting him full of pain killers and then sending him out to face the yankees in yankee stadium...and win...yeah, what a poser...

minivin5 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 3 world series rings and two with Red Sox he will be first ballot, unless he keeps on doing his stupid blogging maybe he pisses off the baseball writers. Just my $.02. What you do with your time is more important than the amount of time you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 HOF is not totally about stats.Hey.if it was McGuire would be in The biggest thing that has happened in MLB in the past couple of decades is Boston finally putting the Curse of The Bambino in the past.The Red Sox won the WS...twice!The gravity that this has on MLB history can not be overstated. Take a look at the role that Shilling played in ending Boston's long and noteworthy run of agony....and put him in the HOF first ballot.

DerrickT Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Maybe not on the first ballot, depends who else is on. Keeping that in mind, your eligable after 5 years of retirement. Plus those who are still eligable. He gets in with over 3,000 strikeouts and a 9-2 post season record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charloots Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 the injury where his doctor practiced once on a cadaver before stiching his ankle skin together, shooting him full of pain killers and then sending him out to face the yankees in yankee stadium...and win...yeah, what a poser... Exactly...shot full of painkillers and he pitched; how bad could it have been? You want to give him a Purple Heart or a Medal of Honor, go ahead. I see it as a medical procedure that got blown out of proportion, mostly due to him being a blowhard self-promoter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sageguy Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Last year I would have said minimal chance, now think of who was a sure fire lock to get in, but now won't, or will take several tries, McGwire, Palmeiro, Sosa, Bonds, Roger......I'm guessing writers will look at Schill in a different light.
