It is no secret that the vast of majority of us here at Talking Chop think very highly of Andruw Jones’ Hall of Fame candidacy despite the tepid support he had received his first couple of years on the ballot. Aside from the fact that he was one of the best defensive centerfielders the game has ever seen (if not THE best although he certainly has some real competition there), he accumulated 67 fWAR in his 17 seasons in the league while connecting for 434 home runs. That other candidates with...well, more questionable resumes were performing better in Hall of Fame voting while Andruw was struggling to just stay on the ballot was as confusing to us as anyone.
Derek Jeter, Larry Walker inducted into Hall of Fame, Andruw Jones finishes with 19.4%
