    Jeter not getting 100% is deserved since Griffey didn’t get it either.

    I wouldn't go that far. I definitely think there's players that benefit more from Coors than simple park-adjusted a***ytics like OPS+ or wRC+ can quantity, but he was clearly a Hall of Famer.

    “Larry walker is the 4th player to average 35 homers, 115 rbis and slug at least .530 between 1996-2001” that’s the type of tweets these dudes come up with lol it’s exhausting

    Who's the b**** that didn't vote Jeter.

    I mean how about this:

    He hit above .310
    Walked at over a 11% rate
    Had an ISO over .250
    Got on base at a .400 clip
    Slugged over .550
    Had a wRC+ of 140
    Had a 9 fWAR season
    Put up over 4 fWAR/season over 17 years despite averaging less than 120 games a year

    You don't need to cherry pick to point out he's great.

    Who? Trevor Hoffman?

    You better hope your little SS can accomplish half of what Jeter has.

  • Jan 21, 2020

    Those crotchety old baseball voters will put in squints Larry walker but won’t elect literally the greatest player of all time and one of the greatest pitchers of all time

    At an age where Jeter was still in the minors, Tatis put up offensive numbers that would be the second best of Jeter's career. Tatis better.

    and Hoffy a goat

    Yankees would hold back their prospects till their mid 20s back then. It's not Jeter's fault for that.

    Nigga every relievers career starts out because they were a failed starter.

    Mo was a better batter than Hoffman and he didn't start out as a positional player.

    Maybe he would've been the white Barry Bonds and y'all turned him into a one inning pitcher.
