Joe Posnanski is a writer whose work I’ve enjoyed for many years.
Recently, he’s been writing a series about who he considers the 100 best players in MLB history who are eligible to be in the Hall of Fame, but aren’t.
Today in The Athletic, he examined the HoF cases for Sammy Sosa and Gary Sheffield, who he ranks as tied for 24th-best among those 100 players.
We’re not concerned with Sheffield here; you can make your own judgment on him.
Setting aside for the moment whether you feel that Sosa and the Cubs should reconcile or not, should Sammy be elected to the Hall of Fame?
