IF Mike Piazza does get elected to the HOF on the 1st Ballot....
Will it be as a MET or Dodger?

Like many players before and after him, no matter how well/or bad they played, their period of time with the Mets is usually the most painful and difficult time of their careers. ;)
They usually leave with inflated check books, but a battered ego and loss of some part of their souls.
Therefore, he'll probably be put in as a Dodger. :D

Huge Dodger fan. From what I remember Piazza was drafted as a favor
from Piazza's godfather Tommy Lasorda. Pretty amazing career for a player
by anyother name/realtionship would not have been drafted at all.

thats correct - he was drafted in the 62 round as a favor to Lasorda - amazing

The only way Piazza should get in the Hall of Fame is if he buys a ticket.

Absolutely floored by this statement. What would qualify a HOF catcher in your eyes?

Piazza will get into the Hall as a great hitter.
But as a catcher, he led the league in Stolen Bases Allowed 10 seasons. thats alot. Lots of errors too. Could he call a good game? I'm asking cuz I don't know. Was he a liability at catcher and would he have done better at 1B? I thought I recalled him playing more 1B but surprisingly only 70 games there.
