IMO if you say Grich should be in then you can't leave out Boone

You're wrong, because that comparison is laughable and absurd and shows a complete and utter lack of knowledge about player evaluation.

I have him in like the top 10 2B of all time so I don't see why he shouldn't get in.

I'm not going to be your amusement.

Next year when Bret Boone makes it into the Hall don't say I didn't tell you so.

Feel free to hold me to that if he doesn't make it in. I'm confident that he will.

Is this one of those times that you get proven wrong and go crazy and lose your mind and start digging your heels in and absolutely refuse to admit you're wrong but continue to increase the batshitinsaneness of what you're saying?

I think so. Sure seems like it.

252 home runs, a couple Silver Slugger and Gold Glove awards and a few All Star games. Oh, and "MVP votes in 3 years."

I was primarily a second baseman in my career.
My career batting average was .266.
I hit over 220 career HR.
I have between 1750-1850 career hits.
I have between 90-110 career SB.
I did not win an MVP award in my career, though I did receive some votes across my career.
I won 4 career Gold Glove awards.
I won at least one Silver Slugger award in my career.
I played in over 20 postseason games, but never won a World Series.
I am not in the Hall of Fame.

Who am I?

I am someone who has no idea how to properly analyze a baseball player.

I think Marty Noble knows how to analyze baseball players better than you. Holding grudges against a player and refusing to vote for him for one year isn't analysis-related.

Re: Is Bret Boone a Hall of Famer?

This was all a large example to show people that Bobby Grich isn't a Hall of Famer.

Bret Boone is more of a borderline guy.

Any hall that includes Bret Boone is a ridiculously big hall. He had 4 or 5 above average years, 2 excellent years. Do you know how many players have had that and better?

A metric ****-ton.
