Couldn’t help myself today, and continue to build my Topps issued 80s. Just love the Gwynn and Mattingly and of course as a Braves fan been looking for a couple nice copies of Glavine and Smoltz.

This came together quickly, and he's a great subject!

It may take a while, but I think he's a HOFer. An excellent buy-low player.

Agreed...with prices on the stuff I usually buy through the roof, I’ve been buying some low-pop graded Lofton...and buying some raw and submitting to PSA, as well.

A few other guys I think will eventually make HOF, too. It’s been fun!

I'm not seeing it. He only got votes in one year, 2013, and it was 3 percent. It would take a cosmic turnaround in perception of his career for him to make the Hall.

Very, very pleased to add Bo to my collection. He was waiting on me yesterday when I wandered into my LCS. Another childhood-era dream come true.

Just a great card that represented an exciting time in baseball. I always loved his 87 Topps, too. Cool pickup!

It'll have to come from the Veterans Committee.

I guess things change and anything is possible but he feels like a significantly weaker version of Tim Raines to me. Also he played for about 50 teams which won't help.

Tim Raines career WAR: 69.4
Kenny Lofton career WAR: 68.4

WAR isn’t everything, but I think the “lots of teams” thing masks a heck of a player.

And Lofton did play most of 10 seasons with Cleveland. He just also played a year or less for other 10 teams.
