    Had he gotten to play a couple more seasons and gotten to 500 HRs, by everyone on here who says McGwire should be (saying 500 HRs should be automatic induction), then yeah he would have.

    He had a nice run, but his skills diminished to the point that he could not make it to the Hall via longevity or attaining any milestones.
    Proud of my 16x20 autographed and framed collection - all signed in person. Not big on modern - I'm stuck in the past!

    If Canseco gets in before Murphy, I am quitting being a baseball fan.

    Well, he made the 40-40 club! image He sure got more out of that then if he had only stolen 38 bases!

    Seriously, I would say no.

    Baseball reference does show Hall of Fame monitor with 103 with likely HOFer at 100, but I still say no for a long time at least.

    << <i>Murphy is 116. Let's keep them in order ! >>



    I agree. Mattingly is 134, and everyone who has a higher number is either still active, a steroid suspect, or in the hall.
