3,000 hits , 400 HRs . Start casting the plaque . That’s what a HOF’er looks like . Sorry Joe Maurer .

Maybe the second best third sacker ever behind Mike Schmidt.

I'd think it's either Beltre or Eddie Mathews?

I know he is a first ballot lock but I never felt like I was watching a HOF calibur player when watching him play.

I expected him to decline for like a decade and he never did.

Not to mention one of the best defensive 3B in the last 50 years.

He is like 23 home runs from 500hr total. He should of played another season or 2.

He was quite productive last year in his age 39 season, and probably gets to that 500 total. That said he was hurt quite a bit the past two years, might not have been worth it to him battling through injuries. Guy really had nothing left to prove.
