- A countdown of the worst snubs by the baseball hall of fame
11. Pete Rose
10. Shoeless Joe Jackson
9. Roger Maris
8. Barry Bonds
7. Fred McGriff
6. Kenny Lofton
5. Gil Hodges
4. Dick Allen
3. Minnie Minoso
2. Curt Schilling
1. Lou Whitaker - Sport
Great job! I agree with you. One more would be Tony Oliva.
I agree with the list, I would put Omar Vizquel in the list as well.
Very interesting points. Great vid!
I def agree with Lofton. I was watching the Indians’ comeback vs. Seattle in 2000 or 2001. Looked up his stats, and yeah, absolutely. 2500 hits, .300 lifetime average in 17 years. He was the last great bag stealer we ever saw. Plus his defense was tremendous.
Frank White and Willie Randolph.
Since I made this video, Hodges, McGriff, and Minoso have been elected to the Hall of Fame. That makes the top 9 snub list:
1. Lou Whitaker
2. Curt Schilling
3. Dick Allen
4. Kenny Lofton
5. Barry Bonds
6. Roger Clemens
7. Roger Maris
8. Shoeless Joe Jackson
9. Pete Rose
My god. Me and you would be good friends. 7, 6, and 2 ....I couldn't agree more! I grew up in the 90s. I saw it. I lived it.
Paul Konerko should most definitely be in the hall of fame at some point. He has similar stats to current hall of famers Willie Stargell, Orlando Cepeda, Billy Williams, and Jim rice as well as possible future HOF Fred Mcgriff
One of my all-time favorites!
My buddy has a theory that Jordan got busted for gambling just like Pete Rose and was secretly punished, and that’s why he left the league between his two trilogies of championships.
Don Mattingly was excellent player who unfortunately played for Yankees when they won no World Series, if they had he be in.
Lofton is interesting. McGriff for sure. Maris Na, Hodges Maybe, Schilling and Bonds may be in the same boat as Rose, Whitaker should be in the hall no question.
Dick Allen was an offensive legend. I think he's HOF-handicapped by his low games played level, which dials down his cumulative offensive totals. Also, I guess he wasn't that popular with the baseball writers. And it didn't help that he was a defensive liability. Still, the dude is way better than SO many of the players already inducted. What a beast.
He has the 2nd most doubles in history!!!
Maris!
Did you ever watch him play?
If you're not a fan of Pete Rose, it's probably because you've never seen him play.
You think 275 is enough
Clemon said I don't give a rat's blank about the Hall of Fame I think the Hall of Fame should give a rat's blank about him what you say matters
Can u show me where bonds and Clemens were ever suspended for steroid use or failed a test
don mattingly
No way. Mattingly himself said he doesn't deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. He had three great years, then about four decent years, and that's it.
Who do YOU think is the biggest hall-of-fame snub?
Mc griff...u also dont have dave parker or al oliver or dale murphy in here...kaat n john deserve inclusion as well
Maris probably dont need be on ur list either
@@winstonjames2583 Tommy John should be in, I just didn't have room for him on this list.
You really think Mike Trout is better than Barry Bonds. Your on something.
@@MrBlackPositiveandInteresting Maybe not right now, but for his career Mike Trout is on pace to be better, especially considering he never used steroids.
Was this a Top 10 list or Top 11??? IMHO McGriff should be in the HOF dominated the MLB in the 90’s
Tony Oliva
I absolutely abhor Barry Bonds. But if you put his numbers up just based on his pre-juice days, he’s a hall of famed. Three MVP’s in four years in the early 90’s. Throw out the whole of his steroid era stats and the MVP’s alone make him a lock. And that’s from a Bonds hater.
Roger Maris is huge negative. Just bc he broke a record doesn’t give him a pass into the HOF. He played a power position and his numbers aren’t even close. 5100 ABs, 826 runs and 850 RBI, .260 BA., 1325 hits. Huge no!!
Minoso is a negative too. Played two power positions and only hit 186 hrs. Let’s say he was able to play earlier. He never hit 25 hrs in a season. Over 20 hrs only 4 times and average 16 hrs a season. Negative.
The Crime Dog? I’m on the fence with him.
No comment on Whitaker. It’s the 2nd base thing. Hard to judge. His era would be best to compare him to Ryne Sandberg. And Ryno was a stud.
And I’m an Angels fan and love Mike Trout but don’t compare him to Barry Bonds. Trout is no Barry Bonds. Trout is a stud but a fully healthy Griffey was better. Bonds is the GOAT.
Well I disagree with a lot of what you wrote. But Roger Maris had a pretty similar career to HOF Hack Wilson. And back to back MVPs.
@@TheJonMichaelShow Hank Wilson played way before Maris and the Veterans Committee voted him in. Even though he only played 12 seasons, he at least has an above .300 BA, nearly .400 OBP and way above .500 slugging %. Not Maris’ .260 BA. Not happening. Even in 12 seasons, which was really 10 seasons, Wilson was still able to pass 1000 RBI. And obviously, all the 500 plus HOF voters and all the committees they’ve had agree. Otherwise, Maris and everyone else on your list would be in. But they’re not for a lot of reasons. Not worthy. But McGriff is a question mark for me. He’s way better than Harold Baines.
@@fernandogomez7081 Didn't Wilson have like 199 RBI in one season?
..and wasn't he like 5'7'?
That's pretty sweet
@@bruce4303 191 RBI in 1930, I believe. Yeah, he was short. 5’6”
@@fernandogomez7081 Thank you
I am a lifelong Tigers fan, so it is fun to hear your indifference to Lou Whitaker's candidacy to the HoF.
I personally do not like Sandberg being in Cooperstown, but that is 99% that I am a biased Tigers fan.
Let me be clear: Sandberg is a no doubt Hall of Famer, but so is Lou.
For whatever reason Detroit teams get a lot less love than other cities' squads when it comes to recognition (perhaps it's because we are in the dreadful Midwest - I don't know)
Always fun to talk about - Thanks
Willie May's hank aaron and a host of others are better than barry
Albert belle was not a cheater!!!
Maris does not belong in the hall of fame!
How can players still on the ballot be a snub?
Also, how can Rodger Maris, who you listed many reasons does not deserve to be in the HOF, deserve to be in the HOF?
Because Maris is an iconic figure even if he doesn't have the career stats.
Barry bonds is the worst human being on earth!!!
Barry and roger are horrible human beings!!!
So were Ty Cobb and a few others in the Hall. It's not the Hall of the Very Nice. It's about accomplishment on the field. Both of them deserve to be in. I may not like them but that's irrelevant if I'm being impartial on talent.
@@donpietruk1517 he didnt do steroids
@@peterpellechia5985 Yeah I used to hold that position but I've changed my mind on it. The fact that MLB put Bowie Kuhn into the HOF after he shamelessly exploited the steroid era to get fans back in the seats changed my perspective. Kuhn exploited the home run race and pitching aces such as Clemens then turned around with false shocked surprise that they were doing steroids and slapped them down once they served his purpose. In short you can't tell the story of baseball without Bonds or Clemens. It is hypocrisy on MLBs part and nothing else. Plus both Bonds and Clemens were HOF bound before any steroid allegations were even hinted at.
@@peterpellechia5985 Another point in this. What about all the players who were on "The Red Juice" and "Greenies" in the 1960s and 1970s? Amphetamine cocktails essentially.
Babe Ruth is not the best baseball player of all time that's a joke. He played during segregation. Anyone from that era is questionable
Then how come he had better stats than everyone else if it was so easy to play in segregated baseball?
I think the game was so fundamentally different in his time that it's like comparing apples and oranges.
