Default Ty Cobb- Would He Have Gotten Into the Hall in 1929
Posted By: Dan Bretta

If we could all live to be 150 it would be interesting to see how players like Pete Rose, Barry Bonds, McGwire, Sosa and the rest of the contemporary "cheaters" are viewed by society and collectors. The collectors of today are paying huge premiums for cards of cheaters...and not just those associated with the Black Sox. Hal Chase may have been the king of baseball cheaters and his cards even carry a premium. Will Barry Bonds be romanticized the same way Joe Jackson has been? Only Sean may be around to know.
