Ya but…There’s like 17,000 CFs in the Hall. Third base is a weird tweener position, and careers have a shorter trajectory than in CF (where guys go to the corners all the time). Having Kirby’s career at 3B is more impressive than in CF. IMO.

Ugh. Is it that time of year again already? Think we’re all
over the annual performative dance of #BBWAA membership and their #baseballhall votes. Change the process.
I have every confidence that the BBWAA will once again do its job logically and thoroughly without any ego or fuckery of any kind. #BaseballHall

Ichiro's headed to the @baseballhall.org on 7/27. Given our exclusive signing relationship with him since 2001, it seems appropriate that we look back on his career with an eye on his #autograph.

With #Reds Pete Rose & Joe Jackson now being HOF eligible the dividing line may come to whether or not you feel the HOF is a shrine or a museum. Those 2 things are very different. #baseballhall
