the pool of future starting pitchers in MLB that the hall of fame is going to be so diluted, one day kris benson will get in.

It's going to turn into, "Dude, do you remember (Insert Name Here)? He used to throw like 5 innings a start. First ballot Hall of Famer bro"

Will Jon Lester go into the HoF as a Cub or Red Sock?



Another guy in the Buehrle/Glavine category. And as much as it pains me, I'd say he was probably a little better than both. These are not Hall of Famers.

Like if teams started platooning guys at an unreal rate, and your league leaders received something like 400 at bats a season we justifiably would see fewer position players in the HOF.


Or we would have to rethink what it means to be a Hall of Famer and abandon traditional benchmarks like 3000 hits, 500 home runs, etc.

If it gets to that point, Cooperstown will be boarded up.

The ballot this year was sad, frankly.
