I can't wait for the first discussion of a modern one-inning reliever comes up. I think it's laughable to put failed starters in the HOF over actual starters that put in 3x-4x the work. If more than 1/3 of your appearances are one inning or less, you shouldn't be in the Hall of Fame unless you also put up 200 wins as a starter first(basically I just covered John Smoltz's butt here).
I don't even like Sutter and Gossage in the hall, and they put in more than one inning many a time. Wait till they start putting in the actual one inning guys like Rivera and Hoffman, bleh. Then at least they can start making the case for Lenny Harris, Cliff Johnson and Smokey Burgess as pinch-hitters, and eventually Jack Reed will get in because who else could pinch-run and defensively replace Mickey Mantle any better! I heard that Elroy Face already plans on crying the day Hoffman is elected
