    Barry Bonds is the greatest left handed hitter I have ever seen in my life, and maybe the greatest lefty of all time. It’s absolutely criminal that he’s not in the HoF and the BWAA can [uck fay] themselves all the way off.

    If that happens, I'll just be waiting for Eric Berry to meet him over the middle.

    Can we all agree that Waino needs to swing the bat one more time?

    More hilarious that it’s not even possible until like 2028. However you gotta cope.

    And the walk off in back to back nights as the cherry on top. Devastation for the Cubbies

    Baseball is losing quite possibly the best manager in the last 20 years with Tito Francona. Managers rarely win games, but the bad ones sure lost a lot of them. He was a great one.

    Observing the mentality that renders one incapable of preverbally "separating the art from the artist" is always my larger Curt Schilling take as it relates to actual baseball. How the baseball writer gatekeepers out there justify continuing to enforce his exclusion from Cooperstown is peak pettiness.

    Baseball writers are the most egregious morons when it comes to gatekeeping the HoF. Why they won't put 4-5 people in every year is beyond me, but they are just egotistical self inflated idiots.

    Sports writers in general seem to be an insufferable lot.

    I've said it before, they act like they are covering corruption in City Hall when they are actually talking about men playing boys games.

    If being an unsavory personality is a disqualifier for Cooperstown now just wait until they learn about the personality of people already in the their precious hall like Ty Cobb. Curt Schilling objectivity speaking had a HOF baseball career.

    I think therein lies the problem, they have a subconscious inferiority complex and overcompensate

    They’re the most sanctimonious group of people on earth.

    Some people are trying to defend Schilling. Saying that he just wanted people to pray for Wakefield and his family. Issue I have with that is, there a lot of ways that you can go about that without revealing specific details about what he is battling.
