    Poetic justice with the Braves winning the World Series after MLB pulled the All Star Game from Atlanta because of 'voter suppression laws'.

    He left the Dodgers and signed with the Mets of all teams for a 3 year, $130 million contract. Average annual value of $43.3 million and shatters the previous record of $36 million AAV.

    And the Twins just released him because they didn't want to pay him. Then Ortiz had a meeting with Pedro in the off season that year and that's all she wrote and he became a Red Sox. I think it's probably safe to say that Ortiz is on par with Ted Williams when it comes to the most loved/respected players according to Red Sox fans. Ortiz probably far more with younger fans.

    So, it's over, Clemens and Bonds (PED's) and Schilling (asshole) are off the ballot. You can make an argument for all three (especially Bonds and Clemens) to be in the HoF yet they didn't make it. At the beginning, I was pretty adamant that Bonds and Clemens shouldn't make it in, but I have since softened my stance and think they should be in. Yes, they used PED's but so did probably 75% or more of players during that whole era. Plus, there are players from way back in the day that used drugs (amphetamines among other things) and plenty of players that were assholes. Clemens and Bonds were great players, period, regardless of their PED use and Schilling was a very good regular season pitcher, but an amazing pitcher in the postseason, regardless of him being an asshole. I think they shouldn't be penalized now for what baseball turned a blind eye to for a very long time.

    Also, Pete Rose belongs in the HoF.
