Beltran not a HOFer
Beltran is a goat

If Carlos Beltran is a hall of famer, Jim Edmonds is a god.

 

[Trust Me]

The baseball Hall of Fame gets a lot of criticism for keeping guys out.

Next year it looks like Carlos Beltran might get elected. And I don't see why he is deserving.

He was never great. A good player, sure.
Longevity? Yeah ok.

But hall of famer seems outrageous to me.
An .837 career OPS?
A meh defender?

This is one instance where I think people are just looking at his WAR value and thinking "well, 70 WAR is in line with other HOFers"

You keep Bonds and Clemens but this guy could be elected? It's a bad joke.

How is he a meh defender? He won 3 gold gloves

If Carlos Beltran is a hall of famer, Jim Edmonds is a god.

Gold gloves?
That meaningless award?



They gave Derek Jeter gold gloves.

I get why Edmonds didn't make the Hall but like I said about Lofton he deserved more time on the ballot.

His first year on the ballot though was a monster

MLB could never be this fun

They was salty at my guy Jesse Winker for his walk off, and that wasn't a fraction of the energy Camionero and Co. put into that HR
