      Also Goldschmidt: wRC+ drops fifty points the following season, drops another twenty points this year, meaning he's been average at the plate and only worth 1 WAR this year. What's crazy is that his batted ball data looks pretty similar to his career numbers, but his xwOBA is like fifty points lower than the past couple years, and nearly eighty points below his peak.

    Tommy John is why I personally like the Basketball Hall of Fame system. He (and Dusty Baker for that matter) 100% should be in for their contributions to the game. They are the people in baseball that large numbers of people will/do remember 30 years after they retire, and at it's core isn't that really what the Hall of Fame is about?

    • @pullt

    • @pullt
      @pullt 2 года назад +15

      @NickRichardson He's referring to how basketball and baseball halls of fame differ as far as how high the bar is to get in. A basketball player who had an equivalent career to John (or Baker) would be a lock for entry without considering "contributions to the game" merits.

    • @royblack27
      @royblack27 2 года назад +3

      I see the Hall as being for heroes of the sport. Great stats, valuable contributions, and outstanding (relevant) character are all worth considering. On the other hand any serious rules or ethics violations should bar the player automatically. By all means you can still respect their skill, but please, keep them out.

      One thing I feel people evaluating baseball today fail to take into account is, what was valued at the time the player was playing?
      So, today, it doesn’t matter how many innings a pitcher pitches, or how many wins he has. That absolutely mattered when Tommy John played. Sure, no one cares about a twenty-win season or 288 career wins. When Tommy John pitched, 20 wins was a huge number. 300 wins was a sure-fire Hall of Famer.
      John got to 288 DESPITE missing a year undergoing a primitive version of a surgery that now bears his name. One more year in the prime of his career and Tommy John is a 300-game winner.
      In my opinion, he has even more of a BASEBALL case to be made for Curt Schilling, who got to 216 wins in a time when wins still counted.

      Olerud only getting like 10% of the vote is completely shocking. Dude was pretty much great everywhere, weirdly seemed to be involved with a lot of winning teams, has decent counting stats.... I don't get it.
      Dave Steib and Olerud should probably be in the Hall of Fame.

      @@adamthompson7104 Fun Fact: Olerud played only a handful of minor league games, and that was at the end of his career. So he actually went straight from the draft to the bigs.

    Also, the Accolades>Analytics take isn't that hot of a take. If the Baseball Writers give you a bazillion awards during your career and then they're like "ehhh....sure you have 224 Gold Gloves that we voted to give you but we, the very same people, feel like changing our standards now" you'd do a double take.

    My potentially hot take: There needs to be a section in the hall of fame where the steroid era guys go as well as pete rose and joe jackson, etc,. that acknowledges they were some of the greatest to play the game but also the most human, who despite their great gifts also fell to temptation and were caught. Their numbers keep them in the same building as their peers but their actions prevent them from standing shoulder to shoulder with them.
    Would be a good, if symbolic, message to send to young players. If you cheat,you may win, but your actions will never be forgotten.
