The difference is that I've seen these guys pitch and you have not...I base my opinons on what my eyes have told me...winning twenty games was alot easier then because of no DH's and pitching in over-friendly parks like the Polo Grounds, Forbes Field, and others....Damn EJ there are major baseball parks older than you, and the mounds were also higher..Bob Gibson put an end to that....:thumbsup:

Smoltz hasn't had any DH's... and has pitched in a very pitcher friendly park his whole career so I don't understand your argument here

Also Polo Grounds were closed b4 Fergie started his big league career and Forbes Field was only open for like 4 years of his career

Recent inductees that have no business being Hall of Famers include Sutter, Mazeroski, Cepeda, and Perez... All very good players but not great (or great for only a short time).

When Frankie Frish was on the Old-Timer's Commitee of the HOF in the early 1970's, he got a bunch of his old buddies on the Cardinals and Giants voted in. The OTC elected so many guys under Frish that they had to revise the rules on how many they could elect. There are a bunch of players in the Hall of Fame that were only "above average" at best.
