Re: Larry Walker, hall of famer?
I'll always remember when Walk turned his batting helmet around and stepped into the right handed batters box during the All-Star game against Randy Johnson. At least he enjoyed the game. I guess that's why he's one of my favorite players of all-time. It didn't hurt that he did play for the Rockies :goteam: ( I guess there's no :homer: :confused:)

So then how come relievers don't get in?
How come pitchers with 250 wins don't get in? Since 300 now means you got really lucky with your pen...
How come Ozzie Smith can get in? Because Pee Wee, Rizzuto, Maranville, Evers, all those guys are in.

I wish Walker could have won the WS in the 04 with St Louis especially what happened in 94
