Default Raines, Bagwell and IRod get the call

3 solid picks, wouldn't be a tragedy if they didn't make it but isn't a travesty that they did. Just glad the juicers will have to wait another year, at least.

next year I guess Chipper, Jim Thome and Trevor Hoffman get in (Hoffman was only like 5 votes short for 2017)

Assuming Pudge didn't juice...which I find highly unlikely.

Vlad was only 15 votes shy, good chance he gets in next year as well.

Chipper Jones biggest problem is not the juice, but his sorry ass attitude towards the media and other people. The guy has a huge reputation as being a big dick....Don't think something like this doesn't matter....

I just feel Pudge opens the door to other juicers. I have reason to think he did. Bagwell deserves it. Raines deserves it. Pudge? The numbers scream Hall of Famer. If he juiced, that's a shame.

Chipper, Thome, Vlad and Hoffman next year. Even with Chipper's attitude, he'll get in.

Piazza was a juicer and he got in
I suspect IRod was as well too
I guess we'll have 2 tiers of juicers, the suspected ones and the blatant ones

How can someone so ornery be called "Chipper"? I might be ornery too if I had to go through life with a name like that!

For some reason a grown man prefers the name Chipper to Larry.

As a huge met fan I hated chipper - really hated him - BUT the guy was awesome - jesh i wish we had him!

IMO he will go down as one of the best hitting 3b of all time if not the best

468 HR, 303 BA, 401 OBP, 549 Doubles, 930 OPS

Insane
