Very well deserved. Jim was a heck of a manager.
Probably smoking a heater when he get the call
Rockies legend
Congratulations Jim you deserve it
Lou should be in.
I’m not sure if I’m biased on this issue or not, genuinely I don’t know. Leyland deserves it 100% but I am STUNNED Lou didn’t get in
As a Tigers fan, this annoys me.
Jim Leyland, a guy that won less than 51% of his game gets in no problem.
Lou Whitaker, who is 7th all-time in WAR for 2Bmen has never come close to getting in.
It’s unfortunate that among the three managerial candidates (Leyland, Pinella, Davey Johnson), the best manager of the three when you look at all factors – Johnson – got the fewest votes.
What the fuck. How is Lou not in
Bullshit that Sweet Lou isn’t in
Pinella has to be in !
I scrolled by this, tried to ignore it, and was upset enough that I had to come in and echo the sentiment that Lou is 100% HoF material.
I swear if I saw Joe West nominated the hall would need to be torn down
