    Glad Barry made it...

    but man, at some point I'd like to see NL voters get over their abject terror of the DH position and actually vote for it like any other lineup position. Do 1B need to hit more than 2B to get in the HOF? Sure. Why? Because positionally their glove isn't worth much so bigger guys can play the position.

    Any hitter can play DH since by default glovework is not an issue, so only the very best hitters should get in. I understand that.

    *sighs* Just vote for DH with those principles in mind, and maybe the guy with the 5th best OBP ALL-TIME for RH hitters might one day make it into the hall.

    Edgar did play 3b early in his career and is well deserving to get in. Also he was not linked to PEDs like some of these guys on the list, that will never get in, mainly Sosa and McGwire IMHO
