If Joe Mauer is a Hall of Famer, than Don Mattingly should likewise be inducted into the HOF. His lifetime numbers best Mauer (Avg, OPS, HRs, RBIs, Hits, etc.), and along with Keith Hernandez, he was one of baseball’s greatest all-time defensive first baseman. Peak value, Mattingly was better than Mauer due to his superior power (Mauer only hit 20+ homers in one season, and never knocked in more than 100 runs in a single season). I don’t believe Mauer is a true Hall of Famer, BUT IF HE IS, Mattingly clearly deserves to be enshrined in Cooperstown. The HOF is slowly being “watered-down”, somewhat stealing the thunder from the players that unquestionably deserve a final resting place in this hallowed establishment.
