Morris & Trammell Elected to HOF
Title says it all. Good players but both borderline in my opinion. Not upset I just feel there are more deserving cases out there.

I'm happy
I thought Morris had a really good chance today, but thought Tram would fall a little short.
In my opinion, they both would have been elected years ago if they played for the Yankees and had more hard core media coverage during their careers. |

Honestly, of the Tigers of that era I always felt like Lou Whitaker was the most deserving of the bunch, not sure why he never had the potential HOF buzz around him Trammell always did.

The argument "If you're not in on the first ballot, then you're not a HOFER" is making more sense as the years go by. And I like Trammell. I know it takes the voters a few years sometimes to get it right, but maybe the Hall needs a new wing for first balloteers at this point.

That 3.90 ERA does not sit particularly well. Not that sabremetrics are everything but per JAWS Morris ranks as the 164th best pitcher of all time. Right behind Jon Matlack.
