David Ortiz..... Hall of fame?

[JAY?]

I'm not saying he's gonna make it
But he has over 400 homers and 1300 rbis with a 285 average
He was huge in their championship runs

What does he have to do in his final 2 years to give him a chance?

 

[M617]

Id say so. His career has been stellar. He has done almost everything you can in the league why not?

 

[Dat Migo]

Steroids

 

[HookersandIceCream]

Really good numbers the last 10 years but the Muthafukka rarely played the feild


So no

Edgar Martinez > David Ortiz

 

[holidayinn21]

a DH with tainted numbers.

edgar martinez hasn't been suspected, and is still 200 votes short after 3 years.

the answer is hell no.

 

[Captain Crunch]

He's not getting in, unless Edgar gets in.

I agree that he's not a Hall of Famer, but lets not reduce how good he was.

Whats your definition of sniff? he has finished 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th

depends how the writers look at the steroids thing....and also the 2004 WS title, which in retrospect was one of the bigger stories in sports history. Ortiz was nearly impossible to get out during that run. He was a huge reason the Sox ended the curse...writers love that type of stuff.

Him and Manny back to back were the most feared duo Ive seen in my lifetime

Haha. Shoe in. 500 homers and 3 titles a World Series MVP and don't forget the best postseason hitter in the history of Baseball.

That 2013 Postseason .733 in the World Series
