Of all the two bit barely make it players the Hall has allowed in, come on folks, give Bo some love, respect and acknowledgement he is well deserved due.

My other nominee for the Freaking Amazing Player Cut Down by Injury wing of the Hall would be J.R. Richard. I'm not going to bother dumping out stats here...just remember how dominant this guy was whenever I listened to him pitch against my Dodgers. And the season he suffered his stroke really felt to me like it could have been his finest.
Richard is a great rags to riches to rags to riches story and a player whose Life in Cards will definitely become part of my collection.
