View Post216 wins, 3.46 career ERA. With the bulk of his career in the National League. Not a chance. thumbd.gif

 

 

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...

View PostEven 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...kooky.gif

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.

HOF is not totally about stats.Hey.if it was McGuire would be inbiggrin.gif

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.

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.

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.smile.gif I see it as a medical procedure that got blown out of proportion, mostly due to him being a blowhard self-promoter.biggrin.gif

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.
