Barry Larkin Elected to Hall of Fame


More here. Larkin and the late Ron Santo will be the only inductees this year.

Congratulations to Larkin, who has good career numbers. On my (virtual) ballot I thought him short of the Hall, but many other writers thought differently.

Tim Raines wuz robbed! Get ready to hear that a lot this week.

And there was no love for Bill Mueller, but we expected that.

Maybe Bagwell was robbed too. We'll see. They get to come back next year, but they will be up against some big names. I'll be curious to see Raffy's total vote; it might be an indicator of what some others can expect.
