I agree with that article.

and what does the article say?

I read it and it doesn't give a case as to why he should be in...just that the author doesn't think Joe cheated in the 1919 WS.

like, nothing from Jackson's career says HOF to me. His numbers aren't good.

See what today brings. Been slow the last 3 working days but it looks like it should change soon.

I don't care what you think.

His numbers are great, he had a short career though. 62 WAR in basically 9 seasons to go with a 170 OPS+ are great numbers.

He had a lifetime ban. His sentence is served. I’d personally put him in, he’d basically be the position player version of Sandy Koufax

Good small brewery named after him in Greenville, doh. He's got my vote

went to bed with a little bit of a post nasal drip, so pumping my body full of Alka Selzer cold to try to knock it out.
